Morphett Vale recorded the most sales between October and December, followed by Flagstaff Hill and Paralowie.
REISA president Alex Ouwens said it is always fascinating to see which suburbs record the highest growth and most sales each quarter.

“The common denominators throughout both lists though are affordability, infrastructure, location and potential for future growth. These factors will always appeal to first home buyers and investors alike.”
