Noosa Economic Profile
Final


           Noosa has seen a dramatic reversal of trends in residential building approvals.
            Since 2006-07, there has been a dramatic and consistent decline in the number of and
            value of residential building approvals. In 2014, the number of residential building
            approvals almost doubled and the value of building approvals increased by 30%. The
            change could be influenced by the increase in population growth experienced in 2014,
            which would have driven a demand for dwellings and the ongoing increase in residential
            prices. Increases in local building activity will greatly benefit the local economy.
