Top 5 NSW Projects Offering Coposit

The top suburbs to invest in Sydney and NSW is often a subject that can be polarizing. So many factors make up a perfectly liveable suburb, and consideration should be paid to things like proximity to lifestyle opportunities, shops, public transport, education and more. Moreover, what makes a strong investment are things like affordability, rental yields and capital growth. 

Since 2020, there has been an annual growth of shift from buying in or around Sydney CBD and a move to the more alluring suburban areas.  

We’ve rounded up 5 of the best (and we know there are many more, so here are just a few of our favourites!) suburbs to invest in and around Sydney.
