Wow what a hectic start to 2022 for those involved in the real estate industry! Its going to be interesting to see if the frenzy continues throughout the balance of 2022, as all signs are pointing to another busy year for Port Macquarie and surrounds.

There’s no doubt lifestyle has been the draw card for people looking to move to the Mid North Coast, which has seen phenomenal growth with the high demand for property due to flexible working conditions since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. At NPB our far-reaching database combined with a vast array of business affiliations has without doubt been a major contributor towards achieving record sale prices in both land developments and residential housing in the past year. The changing market conditions have brought to the fore NPBs level of diversity to benefit both seller and buyer. We are excited to share that in 2021 we achieved over 350 sales with a total “Sell Out “ on five major Land Estates together with the highest residential sale in Ascot Park and a waterfront block in Port Macquarie’s canal precinct. It’s great to know our point of difference and what we can offer, however our passion has always been to ensure our clients are number one and well informed to achieve their property goals. Supporting local connections and working together as a community in the best interests of our clients is top priority for us here at NPB. We have been that way from the very beginning and always will be because that is who we are and of what we are most proud of. With our recent expansion of projects spanning as far North as Grafton and Nambucca Heads, the NPB team has also grown here in the Port Macquarie office and share the same passion and enthusiasm for our client’s success. Our consistent five-star reviews are a testament to the on-going commitment and strong focus on delivering exceptional customer service from each of our team members. We could not be prouder of our NPB family and we are all super excited about opportunities for the coming year.

CEO Paul Loughland said the team at NPB work hard every day to put the “Real” back into Real estate. We love building real relationships with our clients to get them the best result we can. We pride ourselves on being totally customer focused and achieving positive client results. We honestly believe that everyone deserves a place to call home and helping people achieve this via home ownership, investing or renting gives us great joy and satisfaction.

WE’RE WELCOMING PROPERTY OWNERS/SELLERS WHO WOULD LIKE TO BREAK LOCAL RECORDS IN 2022

Nationwide Property Brokers Announce a Record-Breaking Land Sale: WATERFRONT BLOCK OF LAND SNAPPED UP FOR A RECORD $1.55 MILLION BY SAVVY PURCHASER

REAL ESTATE HOTSPOT RECORD SALE

• The real estate market nationwide entered 2021 poised for big growth, but few places are speeding up as fast as Port

Macquarie, and demand continues to gain momentum.

• The rare opportunity to secure a waterfront block of land in Port Macquarie was just snapped up for a record $1.55 million by a Sydneysider. The 696 sqm block of land on

Portside Crescent is south facing the hotly sought-after

Hastings River and features a private jetty with deep water access to moor a boat. The price is over $350,000 of previous waterfront land sales.

WHERE MANY PEOPLE ARE MOVING TO

• This was an investment opportunity not to be missed, guaranteeing a lifetime investment to design a riverfront home within walking distance to the Settlement City Shopping

Centre, public transport, and the CBD of Port Macquarie.

• As Sydney has become prohibitively expensive, Port

Macquarie’s population boom, job growth, and expanding infrastructure is making it a hotspot on the radar for savvy buyers and investors

• Sydney is one of the most expensive cities in the world, with median prices climbing out of most buyers’ reach. In May this year, an unliveable one-bedroom home, destroyed by squatters and situated on a 127sqm block of land in Sydney’s inner west suburb of Camperdown, sold for $1.62m.

• Affordability and lifestyle factors are making coastal towns like

Port Macquarie more attractive to sea changers and investors than ever before

The current Port Macquarie population of 82,370 is projected to increase to about 104,000 by 2036, and job growth and infrastructure is growing to accommodate this boom. An airport terminal upgrade is in the

works, and the Australian and NSW governments are jointly funding $3.3 billion to upgrade 105 kilometres of Pacific Highway between Port Macquarie and Coffs Harbour. Source: NSW Government.
