Whether you plan to sell, lease or invest, Joondalup offers long-term value supported by infrastructure, employment and lifestyle.

Property Market and Local Demand

As the regional city for the north, Joondalup supports a diverse housing mix and strong year-round demand. Buyers and tenants include students, health workers, public-sector employees and families comparing options across Banksia Grove, Carramar, Tapping, Ashby and Sinagra. Median house and unit prices, days on market and advertised rents are updated above for owners monitoring the Joondalup market.

About Joondalup

Purpose-built as the regional city for the north, Joondalup combines a walkable CBD grid with major institutions, a large regional shopping centre, strong transport and lakefront open space. The Noongar name – recorded in the 1830s and commonly translated as “the lake that glistens” – reflects Country linked to Yellagonga and the Oor-dal-kalla family group. The city’s planning framework continues to guide densification around the core.

Street-Naming Themes

The CBD grid blends commemorative and descriptive routes that frame the city centre. Examples include Boas Avenue, Reid Promenade, Davidson Terrace and Grand Boulevard – streets frequently referenced in City centre planning and urban design work as the spine for mixed-use growth.

Institutional Anchors and Momentum

The Joondalup Learning Precinct unites Edith Cowan University, North Metropolitan TAFE and the WA Police Academy. ECU’s Joondalup campus offers state-of-the-art teaching, health services and community facilities; North Metro TAFE operates two nearby campuses including a health and wellness hub; and the WA Police Academy remains the state’s main recruit training facility. These anchors keep demand strong across rentals and sales.

Healthcare, Shopping and Entertainment

Joondalup Health Campus continues to expand to meet demand from the fast-growing northern suburbs. Lakeside Joondalup Shopping City remains one of WA’s premier retail destinations and has drawn continued institutional investment, underlining confidence in the centre’s performance and redevelopment potential. Cinemas, gyms and hospitality venues round out the lifestyle offer.

Living in Joondalup

Residents enjoy parks such as Neil Hawkins Park and the Lake Joondalup foreshore, plus a strong library network, community events and sport. The CBD’s walkability suits students, professionals and downsizers. Coastal escapes like Mullaloo and Burns Beach are minutes away by car. For families comparing options in the corridor, Joondalup sits alongside Banksia Grove, Carramar, Tapping, Ashby and Sinagra as a central reference point.
