In Noosa Shire 39.1% of occupied private dwellings were fully owned. This is higher than the
figure of 28.5% for the State of Queensland. Conversely only a quarter of dwellings in Noosa
Shire are rented whereas the figure is 34.2% for the State. Figure 8 provides an indication of
how tenure varies across the Shire, showing that home ownership is particularly high in Noosa
Heads, Noosaville and Noosa Hinterland. Noosa Hinterland, followed by the two beachside
SA2s have the highest proportion of mortgages.
Over the decade from 2006 to 2016 the number of fully owned occupied private dwellings rose by
1,198 and the number being purchased rose by 885. The number being rented (from a real
estate agent, state housing authority, other person, housing co-op/community/church, etc)
actually decreased by 965.
