Liverpool Property Market Update 1st Half 2025
Liverpool is a dynamic suburb located about 31km southwest of the Sydney CBD, In New South Wales, and is one of Australia’s oldest urban settlements. Today, Liverpool is a thriving commercial and residential centre, offering parklands and recreational amenities. With easy transport links and a diverse community, Liverpool is an ideal suburb for professionals and families.
Property Trends
In Q1 2025, Liverpool recorded a median house price of $1,100,000 and a median unit price of $585,000. This represents annual (Q1 2024 – Q1 2025) growth of 10.0% for houses and 8.9% for units. Comparing Q1 2024 and Q1 2025, total sales softened by -18.2% (to 489 sales in Q1 2025) for houses and by -8.1% (to 306 sales in Q1 2025) for units. There is an undersupply in the market, which created a buffer against higher interest rates and resulted in price growth. Thus, now is an ideal time for owners to capitalise on their investments. While ready-to-sell stock (houses, units, townhouses) is planned for 2025, it will take time to develop. In the short term, further price growth is expected.
Project Development
Liverpool will see approximately $3.0B of new projects commencing construction in 2025. Two major mixed-use projects are the Western Sydney Airport Business Park ($391.6M) and 164–170 Croatia Avenue Apartments ($216.7M). There are approx. 2,098 units/apartments, 118 townhouses, 527 dwellings, and 3,195 lots planned, which will significantly help with housing stock supply in Liverpool.
Rental Market & Growth
House rental yields in Liverpool were 3.0% as of March 2025, slightly above the Liverpool LGA (2.9%) and Sydney Metro (2.7%). Furthermore, median house rental price increased by 2.9% in the past 12 months to Q1 2025, at $720 per week. In the same timeframe, the number of houses rented also increased by 11.7% (to 886 houses in Q1 2025). This points to a highly demanded and competitive house rental market in Liverpool, beneficial to investors looking for alternative opportunities outside of the Sydney CBD.
Vacancy Rates & Property Investment
Liverpool recorded a vacancy rate of 1.0% in March 2025, relatively on par with the Liverpool LGA average of 0.9%, but below Sydney Metro’s 1.3%. Vacancy rates have remained relatively steady over the past 12 months, with a slight increase due to more investors returning to the market. However, a 1.0% vacancy rate is still well below the Real Estate Institute of Australia’s healthy benchmark of 3.0%, suggesting quicker occupancy of rental homes in Liverpool. This indicates a conducive investment environment, even with higher property sale prices (and thus entry prices) in Q1 2025.
