About the Deception Bay Property Market
Initially a farming suburb, Deception Bay has been slowly and organically redeveloped into a thriving suburb. It gained a negative reputation during the 1980’s and 1990’s due to social issues in the local area, but this was resolved coming into the early 2000’s due to new development and changes in the population. Due to the different timings in development, the size of the blocks and age of the houses varies throughout the suburb.
Investigating the key demographics of a suburb can provide insight into who’s interested in living there and what might be drawing them in. There is a fairly evenly spread number of people among the different age groups which could indicate that there’s consistent interest in the suburb and that long held homes could come onto the market in the next few years as elderly residents look to move to somewhere with more support. While a majority of residents own their home either outright or with a mortgage, there’s still a significant number of renters which could provide opportunity for people looking to own an investment rental property.
As mentioned earlier, the block sizes vary in Deception Bay, as do the shapes. Despite this, an overwhelming majority of homes have three or more bedrooms, and there are very few flats or apartments. The location of the property within the suburb will have an impact on desirability and thus the price. Homes that overlook the bay or a park tend to be more valuable than those along the main arterial road, Deception Bay Road.
