Granville to lead Western Sydney property boom over 2025
Greater Western Sydney property is set to thrive over the second half of 2025, with markets such as Granville attracting investor interest due to its affordability and lifestyle appeal.
A recent report from Colliers forecast that declining interest rates have lifted buyer confidence and will see a surge in sales activity for residential property in Greater Sydney over the second half of 2025.
Colliers residential national director, Blake Schulze, said that investors had been quiet over the last few years, but the shifting economic conditions have seen them return in the Sydney market.
“Investors have largely remained dormant over the last few years, caught in the crossfire of a high interest rate environment, elevated property prices and inflation,” Schulze said.
“But with conditions easing, we are starting to see investors return – and they are seeking elusive opportunities where property may be priced under market value in suburbs earmarked for growth,” he explained.
With property investors increasingly on the lookout for future hotspot markets in Greater Sydney, Schulze earmarked the Granville area as an emerging property hotspot in Western Sydney due to its proximity to Paramatta and relative affordability.
Colliers said that investors have been eyeing the Granville apartments market as REA data showed that in
May 2025, the area’s median price for a unit was only $510,400, compared to the wider Sydney market’s median apartment price of $855,000.
Furthermore, as the Parramatta market continues to grow into a major commercial and lifestyle hub, Colliers noted that Granville has increasingly emerged as an affordable but well-connected alternative market.
Additionally, several infrastructure projects in Granville that will increase the area’s lifestyle appeal are currently under construction, with the City of Parramatta planning to deliver the $13 million Granville Town Square, which will feature a public open space, a kiosk, BBQ facilities and event spaces.
Colliers also noted that various infrastructure projects are also underway in nearby Parramatta, such as the Parramatta Light Rail, Civic Link project and new CBD transport hub, which are all tipped to create uplift for Granville.
“Infrastructure upgrades such as the Parramatta Light Rail will further improve connectivity between Granville and the Sydney CBD, making it an even more attractive location,” Schulze said.
Schulze added that Granville has also notched up in popularity among investors due to initiatives such as the federal and NSW government’s joint $4.4 billion investment into the Western Sydney Infrastructure Plan, which is expected to increase property values across the wider Western Sydney market.
“Investors are well-positioned to benefit from Western Sydney’s continued evolution, with future development and enhanced transport links expected to drive capital appreciation,” he concluded.
