Casino Property Market Update 2nd Half 2025
Casino, New South Wales, offers an affordable lifestyle with a strong sense of community, making it ideal for families and those seeking a peaceful environment. Its scenic surroundings and local events, like the famous Beef Week, add charm and excitement to everyday life.
Property Trends
In Q2 2025, Casino recorded a median house price of $487,000 and a median unit price of $402,500. This represents annual (Q2 2024 – Q2 2025) price growth of 10.7% for houses, but a softening of -4.8% for units. Comparing Q2 2024 and Q2 2025, house sales grew by 8.3% (to 65 sales) while unit sales surged by 128.6% (to 16 sales). Despite the surge in unit sales, its volume remained small compared to houses. Price growth and higher sales suggest demand for houses is strong. Units are now slightly more affordable for buyers; but with limited ready-to-sell dwellings planned, buyers must act fast before property prices increase.
Project Development
Casino will see approximately $501.3M of new projects commencing in 2025 and 2026. There are a few residential projects planned, due to add 62 units, 9 dwellings, and 46 lots to the area. However, this is not enough, especially when compared to Q2 2025 sales (65 houses). Thus, supply will remain insufficient to meet demand. This will add continuous pressure to the market and drive property prices higher.
Rental Market & Growth
House rental yields in Casino were 3.5% as of June 2025, on par with New South Wales North Coast (3.6%) but higher than Sydney Metro (2.7%). This is paired with a 10.0% median house rental price growth in the past 12 months to Q2 2025, at $550 per week, and a -61.5% decline (to only 20 houses in Q2 2025) in the number of houses rented. This indicates a clear undersupplied house rental market in Casino, which suggests there is a need for more investors.
Vacancy Rates & Property Investment
Casino recorded a vacancy rate of 0.6% in June 2025, below the New South Wales North Coast’s average (1.0%) and Sydney Metro’s (1.6%). Vacancy rates have decreased in the past 12 months, which suggests an even tighter rental market. Furthermore, a 0.6% vacancy rate is significantly below the Real Estate Institution of Australia’s healthy benchmark of 3.0%, indicating quicker occupancy of rental homes in Casino. There is a conducive environment for investors, even if the median house price (thus entry price) has increased in the past 12 months to Q2 2025.
