Is Monterey a Good Suburb to Buy Property in 2026?

Arguments For

  • +Monterey house prices grew 8.8% in the past year — strong capital growth driven by infrastructure investment and lifestyle demand.
  • +Rental yields of 2.5% (houses) and 3.9% (units) provide reliable income for investors.
  • +Pre-CGT reform demand (effective 1 July 2026) is attracting investors who want to lock in current favourable tax settings.
  • +Monterey's position in the St George corridor — close to the CBD, airport, and beaches — supports long-term property value growth.

Arguments Against

  • −Entry-level house prices start at $1.70M — high barriers to entry compared to outer suburbs.
  • −RBA cash rate at 4.10% increases borrowing costs, reducing purchasing power for buyers with large mortgages.
  • −Stamp duty on a $2.12M house can exceed $60K for non-first-home buyers — factor this into your total acquisition cost.
  • −If buying for investment, the proposed negative gearing changes (1 July 2026) may reduce future tax deductions on new purchases.

Balanced assessment: Monterey remains one of the strongest suburbs in St George for both owner-occupiers and investors in 2026. For personalised advice on whether to buy in Monterey, contact Michael Kalinovski (0411 818 171) for a free consultation.
