FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
OVERVIEW
In Q1 2026, Tamworth* recorded a median house price of $650,000, and a median unit price of $398,750. This is an annual (Q1 2025 – Q1 2026) price growth of 21.5% for houses and by 15.6% for units. Between Q1 2025 – Q1 2026 house sales decreased, by -17.6% (to 234 for houses in Q1 2026) and by -19.2% (to 21 sales in Q1 2026). The house and unit market is currently undersupplied, creating a buffer against higher interest rates in early 2026. Thus, now remains an ideal opportunity for owners to capitalise on their investments. With a limited number of new ready-to-sell stock in the 2026 pipeline prices are expected to increase, thus buyers must act fast.

Although there are new ready-to-go residential developments in the pipeline (24 houses and 52 units), this will not be enough to answer current demand, especially compared to Q1 2026 sales (234 house sales). Further, vacant land lots will take time to build into housing. Thus, an undersupply is most likely to continue, pushing up property prices in the short run.
