Buying a home in Gables NSW
The median house price in Gables sits at about $1.4 million, up 6.8 per cent over twelve months, with 36 houses selling in the last three months and a median of 73 days on the market. Most of what sells is either near new or land with a build contract. For a finished home only a few years old, the useful question is which warranty items you would inherit, and a pre-purchase inspection answers it.
What the numbers say
A median near $1.4 million, 6.8 per cent growth over a year and 36 house sales in three months. Homes have been taking a median of 73 days to sell.
Who lives here
The 2021 Census counted 3,339 residents with a median age of 32, a young suburb of families that has grown since.
Near new is not defect free
A house a few years old is still inside its two and six year warranty periods. Defects found now can still be raised with the original builder in many cases.
Inspect before you exchange
In NSW the cooling off period is short. Book the inspection early so the report is in hand before it ends.
Land and build
Buying a lot with a build contract means stage inspections through the build rather than one report at the end.
