This analysis is based on houses only. Based on this review I would recommend the suburbs of Blackmans Bay, Howrah and Tranmere.

Market Summary - July 2022
- Brighton currently has 3 months of inventory (up 0.32 months since June). Sometime in Q3 this is expected to tip past 4-months with the balance of power shifting towards sellers. Based on a rolling 90 day median, prices for houses between June and July remained flat (0% change).
- Hobart – North East currently has 2.2 months of inventory (up 0.3 months since June). This level of inventory is still very low, but we are seeing the advantage shifting away from sellers. Based on a rolling 90 day median, prices for houses between June and July fell (-1.6% change).
- Hobart – North West currently has 2.8 months of inventory (up 0.35 months since June). Based on a rolling 90 day median, prices for houses between June and July remained flat.
- Hobart – South and West currently has 2.9 months of inventory (up 0.31 months since June). Based on a rolling 90 day median, prices for houses between June and July actually increased by 6.1%. This is unlikely to convert into a month on month trend.
- Hobart Inner currently has a low 2.2 months of inventory (up 0.29 months since June). Based on a rolling 90 day median, prices for houses between June and July remained flat.
- Sorell – Dodges Ferry currently has 3.4 months of inventory (up 0.9 months since June). This market is forecast to hit 6-months of inventory this year with some significant downward pressure on prices as a result. Based on a rolling 90 day median, prices for houses between June and July fell by 6.3%.
Median prices have been collected using a rolling 90-day sample for each Sa3. Using agent-advised sold prices gives us a much more timely result (up to 3-months faster) than relying on state licensed data and using the Sa3 provides a sufficiently large sample to reliably land on the median even though we won’t have 100% of population data.
Market Risk
The following 1 to 5 risk scores follow the same approach used by the Australian Property Institute. A higher score, such as a 4 or 5, represents a higher risk. A lower score is a lower risk. When you see a risk score of 4 or 5, it warrants further investigation.
Both Sorrell – Dodges Ferry and Brighton have some of the highest risks currently. Pipeline building approvals could push inventory levels much higher if demand drops, which will see prices under more downward pressure this year. The two markets with some of the strongest risk ratings currently are Hobart – South & West and Hobart – North East.

Be sure to click through to the price segments, profiles and elevation section on our Suburb Map. The profile section presents socio-economic scores for an Sa1.
Heat Maps
A total of 4 heat maps (technically they are choropleth maps) have been created using a statistical area 2. This is larger than a suburb, which helps provide a more robust measure, especially when dealing with smaller sample sizes. Scroll through to each map using the arrows.
Median house prices are based on a rolling 12-month sample at the Sa2 level for this map.
SEIFA is the decile rank used to measure socio-economic advantage-disadvantage.
Affordability is the number of years worth of income it takes to cover the median house price. For example, 9.7 years of household income.
Vacancy rate is calculated based on (a) the number of rentals advertised for 21-days or more and (b) the total number of properties rented via real estate agents. The percentage vacancy rate is calculated using (a)/(b).
