Noosa region property: Affordable houses and units on the market

From renovators’ delights to resort unit investments – there still are some affordable options in the Noosa region with some still up for grabs for less than $500,000.

It has one of Queensland’s most expensive property markets but there are some renovators’ delights and units in Noosa Heads still available for a relative song.

They may be out of reach for some entering the market but there are a small number of properties in the tightly-held area listed for sale for under $500,000.

Property values soared throughout the area by up to 30 per cent in the past 12 months with record-breaking sales becoming the norm as the country’s love affair with the holiday hotspot continued.
