Sydney, November 25, 2025 — The search for affordable housing has driven a sharp rise in regional New South Wales property prices, with the state’s combined land value surpassing $3 trillion for the first time.
According to official figures, NSW’s total land value grew 3.6 percent, from $2.98 trillion in 2024 to $3.09 trillion in 2025, fueled by an average 4.2 percent increase in residential land values.
Lower-priced regional towns have seen the strongest growth. Hay in the Western Riverina recorded the largest jump, with residential land values soaring 40.3 percent to a median lot value of $44,300. In Brewarrina, a small outback town in the state’s northwest, values rose nearly 34 percent to a median of $12,000.
Analysts, including Ms Dale, attributed the surge to a “buoyant” rental market, favorable seasonal conditions, and renewed investor interest. Tenterfield in the Northern Tablelands also saw significant increases as buyers moved inland in search of better-value homes.
