Tumbarumba Property Market Update 2nd Half of 2020

In H1 2020, Tumbarumba recorded a median house price of $227,500, and a median vacant land price of $65,000. This represents annual (H1 2019 – H1 2020) median price growth of 24.3% for houses and of 41.3% for land. During H1 2019 – H1 2020 total sales slowed, by -40.0% for houses (to 15 sales) and by -81.3% for land (to just 3 sales). Slowing in sales activity is expected due to COVID-19, however median price growth recorded during this time suggest the strong value of properties in the area, and potentially pent-up demand.

Over the past 12 months, house rental yields in Tumbarumba increased strongly to reach 7.1% in June 2020.
