NSW PLANNING PORTAL

For some buyers, a healthy development pipeline in Merrylands is a positive signal rather than a concern. It indicates that developers see demand sufficient to justify new supply, that the suburb's zoning allows density, and that the infrastructure is being invested in. Gentrifying suburbs in the Cumberland area with strong pipelines often see established housing benefit from proximity to new amenity and improved streetscapes, even as new supply temporarily moderates price growth.
