Hunter Valley Market Update 2 nd H a l f 2 0 2 5
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
OVERVIEW
In Q2 2025, Hunter Valley* recorded a median house price of $785,000 and a median unit price of $565,000. This is a 12-month (Q2 2024 – Q2 2025) price growth of 7.5% for houses and 10.8% for units. Comparing Q2 2024 and Q2 2025, house sales increased by 5.7% (at 243 sales in Q2 2025) and unit sales increased by 45.9% (to 54 sales in Q2 2025). This confirms there is a highly demanded property market, which created a buffer against higher interest rates; and is stimulated by the latest cash rate cuts. Thus, now is an ideal time for owners to capitalise on their investments. With little new supply planned, buyers must act fast.

There is not a significant supply of ready-to-go residential planned for 2025, especially in comparison to the number of house and unit sales in Q2 2025. This is not enough to assist with current demand, thus potentially an undersupply in stock. This will push up prices even further, for all stock types.
