Suburbs / MidCoast (Forster / Tuncurry / Taree) / Forster
Every council DA in Forster, the work behind it, and who's building. Tradies get the new ones texted every Monday, filtered to their trade.
Forster is family, investment, holiday-home and retiree country on the MidCoast: a settled base on the lake and the beach, plus investors and holiday owners, so the work is renovations on the homes people keep and the occasional full rebuild when a block finally changes hands. Steady, water-focused work.
Forster runs new dwelling first, with renovation / extension (300) close behind: new dwelling leads at 319 of 1166 DAs on record. A Value-tier market on a $660k median, a typical job runs $149k, approvals are down 15% year on year.
26% of approvals are alterations and additions, so the work here is improving homes, not replacing them, your customer is a settled owner-occupier.
32% of approvals are new builds or demolitions, so knock-down-rebuild is a genuine slice here, not just extensions.
the typical $149k approval is about 23% of the $660k median home, these are substantial transformations, not cosmetic touch-ups.
One trade, one area, weekly. Every new Forster approval that matches your trade, texted with the address and the job. $35/month, reply STOP anytime.
