EMPLOYMENT

employment PROJECTIONS Health Care and Social Assistance is the largest employment sector in the area and is expected to grow as Gosford Hospital undergoes a major expansion, including increased allied health services associated with the hospital. The hospital currently has 1,000 student nurses. With the redevelopment, the number is expected to double.

Employment in Retail Trade, including small bespoke retailers rejuvenating town centres, as well as jobs in Accommodation and Food Services continue to grow due to population growth.

The Central Coast being one of the fastest growing regions and third largest Local Government Area (LGA) in NSW, jobs in Public Administration and Safety are also on the rise.

ARCHIBALD

The Central Coast has attracted a strong, innovative Manufacturing sector that has grown in the last year against the national trend largely due to the location, access to markets and a highly skilled workforce.

22

Modern and advanced manufacturing is driven by innovation, hence people with new technology expertise are sought after.

While the employment numbers in the Construction sector have marginally fallen, it is still set to boom in the area with many millions worth of building approvals in the last financial year.

The industry forecast to have the highest annual growth rate is Education and Training. This reflects the greater proportion of education professionals in the area with the construction of the Central Coast Medical School and Health and Medical Research Institute and the new TAFE NSW campus. As the population grows, higher skills are also needed for sustainable economy.

The region’s unique and productive natural environment – including its coastline – will support growth in the tourism, lifestyle housing, agriculture and resource sectors.

THE NUMBERS

A SMART

investment Archibald is a thriving investment opportunity with many investors taking advantage of the growing population, and new economic ventures in education, retail and health innovation in the area. Gosford delivers strong rental returns, making it a particularly attractive investment prospect with a high gross rental yield.

Strong drivers of demand in the Gosford apartment market are higher than average amenity and liveability offerings.

A growing population forecasts increasing demand for housing.

The compounding supply and demand issue facing this region sets purchasers within Gosford to see above-average capital growth rates over the next 10 years.

ARCHIBALD

Archibald also benefits from increased value attached to locations near water. More broadly, there is a value attached to all amenities a property has access to, including schools, retail, entertainment, public transport and health.

Gosford has outperformed the Sydney market by a substantial margin in terms of the apartment market. Apartment markets in Gosford have benefitted from the work-from-home (WFH) phenomena whereas apartments in Greater Sydney have been hampered by it. The Gosford apartment market saw prices rise 45% (32% in real terms), compared to the Sydney market’s rise of 9%. Notably, approximately 50% of the Gosford apartment market is occupied by renters with a vacancy rate positioned at 0.6% as of March 2022.

The cost of land will continue to push the market towards higher density and apartments. As the prices are relatively low compared to Newcastle and Sydney, one vital area for investors to look for is buying off the plan apartments. New apartments are expected to carry a premium over old stock.

Gosford and the Central Coast are experiencing declining vacancy rates and increasing rents, providing the ideal environment for investors. Gosford is highly attractive for tenants looking for a laid-back, comfortable lifestyle with convenient access to transport, employment, facilities, and entertainment. Long-term growth in the area combined with ALAND’s 0.5% vacancy rate provides a growing rental return on your investment.
