future price growth even for those buying a multimillion-dollar residence July figures by property investment firm Suburb Data have revealed the top locations where homebuyers are getting the best of the market with Gilberton promising the biggest bang for the buck Homes in the inner-northern suburb transact for $973,000 – meaning buyers are likely to pay $472,000 less than they would if they bought a home in neighbouring suburbs St Peter and Walkerville compared to properties sold in sister suburbs while Forestville – where the average home sells for $935,000 – offers savings of $169,000 CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR MORE REAL ESTATE NEWS Homes in Darlington and Panorama also transacted for at least $153,000 below neighbouring suburbs Prospect and Athelton all offered savings of over $82,000 The data also revealed which localities to avoid Gawler East and Moana ranking as the state’s most overvalued property markets transacted up to $88,000 above neighbouring properties in the regional SA towns Suburb Data analyst Jeremy Sheppard said it was a surprise to see so many Adelaide suburbs that remained undervalued despite the city’s incredible property price growth over recent years “It’s peculiar for a market that’s had such a run up as Adelaide has had to still have high scores of areas that are undervalued but I think that just points to the longevity of the cycle it’s in “Adelaide probably hasn’t quite finished its run up because even though it is getting more expensive it is still quite cheap compared to the other big five capitals “Many of the most undervalued markets are more expensive than the Adelaide standard but there could still be more growth.” He adds that “undervalued” suburbs would see imminent price rises because the houses were better value than surrounding areas and were “due catch up growth” home seekers who were considering purchasing in an “overvalued” suburb needed to be cautious “If you buy in an overvalued market there is a very high chance the prices are peaking and you can expect little to no growth in home values after purchase,” he said you could fall into negative equity as the prices adjust because overvalued markets can retract over time This would be devastating if you had to sell “There is a big danger of buying in markets that are peaking You would have to hold onto the property a lot longer and you’d be in more trouble if you had to offload because of some unforeseen event.” Meet the celebrities who made careers out of selling real estate Listed: What your home could be worth in 2029 Eye-watering salary you now need to buy a home in SA Ray White Prospect Director Stefan Siciliano said too many buyers were “fixated” on particular suburbs that were quickly going up in market value house prices across greater Adelaide have risen by 13.8 per cent over the past year and 46.7 per cent since 2021 the reality is that too many buyers are priced out of areas that they want They get fixated on suburbs that are simply out of their reach and by the time they are ready to look at neighbouring suburbs “The reality is that buying a home is getting so much harder and currently not spoiled for choice “So the sooner people can get into the market the better and definitely consider expanding your search.” Sabrina Furlan and her partner Stefan D’Angelo Alberton has been named one of Adelaide’s most undervalued suburbs in terms of property purchases who purchased her house in Alberton at auction late last year said looking further afield had helped her save big bucks Alberton has a median house price of $740,000 while homes in neighbouring suburb West Lakes transact for over $1.1m The picture looks equally bleak 15 minutes down the road in Prospect “We were originally looking at surrounding suburbs as we wanted an older home to renovate,” Ms Furlan said we noticed prices went up quite dramatically We didn’t think much of the suburb initially we thought it was a bit feral – but we were wrong and we now love living here “I think people need to stop getting stuck on just one suburb they want to live in The Salvation Army and Gawler (SA) Police won the Community Event of the Year award

three years leaving slim pickings for those still dreaming of nabbing a slice of heaven It’s no secret that South Aussies love a good church renovation but a spike in demand for the ultimate reno challenge could see the state run dry of heavenly homes While SA has traditionally been spoiled for choice when it came to country churches up for grabs new data from realestate.com.au shows this was no longer the case As it stands, a converted 1892-built church at 1203 Greenhill Rd, Uraidla – the current home of a popular pizza bar Lost in a Forest – remains the only heavenly listing on realestate.com.au with the property marketed at $1.65m to $1.8m The lack of listings follows an increase in church sales on the back of Covid which saw more investors seek out unique renovation projects at affordable prices 2023 is looking to round out the year with at least 27 sales bringing the total of total church sales over the past five years to just shy of 100 Real Estate Institute of South Australia chief executive Andrea Heading said buyers looking to transform an old church were quickly running out of options The Alford property at 13 High St is for sale via expressions of interest The Gawler East property at 7 Warren St is for sale with a price guide of $590,000 to $649,000 “I don’t think anyone really considered the possibility of running out of churches (for sale),” she said Adelaide has always been known as the City of Churches for good reasons is the value for money as you tend to get a bit of land with the sale … and structurally “So people with disposable incomes looking at these types of properties I think they do have to be quick because there’s now so little on the market … as more people have been inspired by TV renovation shows Among this year’s top sales was a 147-year-old Adelaide Hills church which received 12 formal offers to purchase after just nine days on the market The former Prince of Peace Church at 92 Main St eventually sold to a local buyer for $475,000 – $95,000 above the lower end of its price guide The Lobethal property at 92 Main St sold in record time for $475,000 in September this year Plans are now in place to convert the property into a private wedding venue and Airbnb said “affordability” made the former Anglican Church asset a hit with buyers The church had been listed for sale with a price guide of $380,000 to $400,000 “In the week it was on the market we had 103 groups through the door and that wasn’t just buyers from South Australia but we had people from interstate as well,” he said “The major drawcard was the location with buyers looking to renovate the church to turn into a home but because it has township zoning it also had the availability for commercial use or for it to be turned into an Airbnb which is what the buyer is planning to do.” An old church at the heart of Langhorne Creek also proved popular with buyers earlier this year The Langhorne Creek property at 69 Bridge Rd sold for $495,000 in May this year The castle-like Anglican Church of St John at 69 Bridge Rd had been listed with a price guide of $450,000 but sold for $495,000 with the sale including the original church pews and furnishings Selling agent Sally Ness of Raine & Horne said buyer interest was flooding in from the moment the church was listed “I’ve had really good interest – because it’s a small country town word spread that it was coming onto the market,” she said Meanwhile, the top viewed property listing on realestate.com.au under $750,000 in 2023 was 58 Princes Hwy sold for $670,000 in December
