Aussie Real Estate Podcast · Mandurah Property Boom: 22% Growth Drives Demand in WA’s Coastal Housing Market · 22 Mar 2026 podcast

Obviously, it's a lot of our population, actually, or community work in Perth and fly in, fly out, for instance, plays a huge part to our community, for sure.

It certainly does.

Well, Mandurah is great value for money.

It's been a little bit of a sleepy hollow for really for up until really 2021, 2022 is when it started to be seen again.

And then everyone appreciated for what it is for its tourism, etc.

I think we've won the Tourism Award three years in a row.

So it's the biggest day destination in Australia for tourists.

It's definitely being seen now.

And that's another reason why people are attracted down this way.

Absolutely.

Yeah, absolutely.

And I'll go back to those years of 2014, 2015.

So Mandurah was already in an all-time low.

We had a huge sellout of investors.

So if you go back to 2006...

So there was 32% occupancy in the Mandurah greater region.

And so that means 68% of properties owned was to investors.

So we had a huge 10, 12 years of selling where we predominantly just sold to owner occupiers.

So we didn't see any investors down this way.

So the owner occupancy rate has now transitioned to over 70%.
