Wyoming vs Narara v Niagara Park vs Lisarow | August 1st, 2025

https://www.mortgagechoice.com.au/michael.daniels/our-services/mortgage-choice-in-wyoming-michael-daniels/

On the Central Coast train line, north of Gosford, the suburbs of Narara, Wyoming, Niagara Park, and Lisarow stand out. These areas are known for their high owner-occupation rates and distinct market dynamics. Below, we compare these suburbs to help you make informed decisions with the guidance of a Mortgage Broker.
Lisarow: High Owner-Occupation and Stable Returns

Lisarow boasts an impressive owner-occupation rate of 84%, significantly higher than the state average of 64%. This suburb is characterised by relatively newly built, free-standing homes, which attract homeowners more than investors seeking multi-dwelling properties. With a median house price of $1,205,000, Lisarow offers a rental yield of 3.8%, surpassing the Central Coast average by 1%.

Wyoming: Affordable with Strong Growth

Wyoming presents a compelling opportunity with a median house price of $910,000 and a 5.9% price growth over the past year. The suburb enjoys high demand, with houses spending just 28 days on the market for sales and 15 days for rentals. Its rental yield, notably higher than the Central Coast median of 2.8%, suggests that Wyoming may be undervalued, making it an attractive prospect for buyers.

Narara: High Demand and Stable Market

Narara is a hotspot for buyers, with 1,977 interested buyers last month and a house price growth rate of 7.4% over the past 12 months. Despite this growth, Narara maintains a solid rental yield of 4%, with rentals leased in just 15 days. The suburb’s stability is evident in its average occupancy tenure of 24.39 years and only 113 sales in the past year.

Niagara Park: Affordable and High-Demand

As the smallest of the four suburbs with 910 houses, Niagara Park offers a median house price of $870,000, making it ideal for first-home buyers and investors. Properties sell quickly, averaging 22 days on the market, driven by high demand (400 interested buyers last month) and limited supply (only four houses currently listed). With an average tenure of 23.6 years, Niagara Park is a stable, high-demand suburb.

Your Central Coast Suburbs 10-Year Growth | July 12th, 2025

Image
At   Mortgage Choice Central Coast , located at 200 Central Coast Hwy, Erina, we’ve been diligently tracking median house prices for 47 suburbs over the past 10 years (love our spreadsheets). When we started, we recognised the Central Coast was somewhat undervalued, but the growth we’ve witnessed has been remarkable. House Price Trends Over 10 Years Across these suburbs, we’ve seen a combined growth rate of 109.32%. Hamlyn Terrace, the least performer, still achieved an 80.20% increase, likely due to higher prices for new homes in 2015. Copacabana, on the other hand, led with an impressive 160.23% growth, with its median house price rising from $660,000 a decade ago. What’s Ahead for Central Coast Property While these figures are compelling, many of us are more curious about where the market is headed. We expect continued demand for free-standing homes, driven by limited supply. Our recent data shows the Central Coast’s population growing at a third of Sydney’s rate and half of New...

Central Coast median house price rises for 6th consecutive month

Image
  UPDATE | 10/06/2025 | Central Coast Median House price rises for 6th consecutive month The median house price on the Central Coast for May 2025 is $1,044,750. Exactly 10 years ago, the median house price was $499,250. Will the median house price double again in 10 years?  I would have answered no to that question in 2015, but a combination of general inflation, rising wages and accommodating lending policies (especially during COVID-19) drove the median through the roof. In fact, between mid-2020 and mid-2022, our median rose by 61% from $650,000 to $1,050,000.  Fortunately, this median dropped by $100,000 over the following 12 months; however, we are now only $6,000 away from the COVID-19-induced peak. This has been a devastating change for our first home buyers, and predictions of further variable interest rate cuts will likely accelerate house price growth.  If you know a potential first-home buyer who would like a maximum purchase price estimate (no obligation)...

Tumbi Umbi's median house price has reached its prior peak, which was achieved during the COVID-19 stimulus program. $1,070,000 sets a new record for Tumbi Umbi. As median house prices have grown by 34% over the last 5 years, median house rents have risen by 55%, to $630 per week. Interestingly, the median rent recently fell from a peak of $725 per week in December 2024, which is undoubtedly welcome relief for tenants.  According to the realestate.com.au results, 3-bedroom rental yields are 3.01% p.a ($630 per week x 52 weeks = $32,670)  and  4-bedroom rental yields are 3.76% ($800 per week x 52 weeks = $41,600), despite 4-bedroom median house prices being $280,000 higher than the 3-bedroom median house price of $825,000.
