BLACKTOWN IN TOP 10 PROPERTY LIST

The Ponds stands out as a family suburb
DALLAS SHERRINGHAM
WHEN it comes to the top places to buy a property in Greater Sydney, Blacktown scrubs up pretty well against the ‘silver tail’ suburbs like Brookvale and Balgowlah Heights.
In a recent list of the top 10 place to buy property in Australia’s biggest city, Blacktown suburb The Ponds came in at a very respectable number six.
 
The survey was listed by Yahoo Finance property site with the ‘millionaire mob’ from the northern beaches dominating the top five.
 
True, The Ponds is a ‘flash’ suburb named as a separate suburb in 2007 up the road from downtown Blacktown, but it is part of the Blacktown City Council local government area.
 
The name came from a local creek called ‘Second Ponds Creek’ and 11,000 people now live there.
 
Locals flock to The Ponds shopping centre or nearby Rouse Hill Town Centre and it is ideally placed beside the M2 and M7 motorways.
 
There are many quality houses in the area and most of them are less than 10 years old. The median price is just over $1M which compares favorably with the Sydney median price of $1.3m.
 
The median rental is $650 per week. Demand is high, with 724 people attending each open house on average. For rentals it is understandably at melting point with 1728 inspections per property.
 
The Ponds is a real family suburb with 34% maturing couples and families and 21% young families.
 
The full Sydney list 1-10 is: Avalon Beach, Newport, Mona Vale, Warriewood, Palm Beach, The Ponds, St Ives, Paddington, Rozelle, Milperra.
 
Apartments: St Ives, Avalon Beach, Dee Why, Mt Colah, Palm Beach, Newport, Wentworth Point,  Silverwater, Brookvale, Collaroy.
