Prestige by LJ Hooker Solutions Gold Coast - Spring 2022

It’s the subject on everyones mind - the changing property market. As we head towards the traditional Spring selling season, the transitioning market is the hot topic of the moment

With interest rates rising and days on market increasing, it seems as though we are returning to a more balanced (dare we say a precovid) market.

While the media continues to focus on a doom-and-gloom message, it is important to remember that many of the statistics are focused on capital cities; primarily Sydney and Melbourne.

Over the last 12 months, property values on the Gold Coast have soared by ove 37% in some areas but in the past month have corrected by about 2%.

LJ Hooker agents are reporting increasing numbers at open inspections in the lead-up to the spring market, although buyers are cautious about overspending and have a stricter budget due to tightened lending.

Incentives for first-home buyers and the return of investors, however, are also expected to keep the end year market busy.

Stock levels remain tight

LJ Hooker Group Head of Research, Mathew Tiller, said we expect that there will be more stock coming but compared to other spring selling seasons there will probably be a lower level of listings.

“Interest rates haven’t impacted the nation consistently, each market has its own micro-factors in play with different levels of stock and buyer demand,” Mr Tiller said.

“If there are people who are forced to sell it won’t be because of interest rates alone but due to a combination of the overall costs of living putting too much pressure on household budgets.”

If you have any questions, our teams are available any time to talk about the property market, and hep you on your real estate journey.

Views That Dreams Are Made Of!

Take a drive up to 227 Repeater Station Road to see one of the widest, most expansive and panoramic views of the Gold Coast skyline available on Springbrook Mountain, where you can see all the way from South Stradbroke Island right down along to Coolangatta in the south, and all from your very own rear deck! A perfect place to relax with your morning coffee and watch the sunrise from your right in the East, or perhaps enjoy a glass of wine in the evening as you watch the beautiful sunsets go down on your left in the West. This fantastic deck runs the whole length of the left side of the house and has 3 sets of french doors to access the home into either the lounge, the dining area or the master bedroom. Who is here to see you here? No one but the birds - the rosellas, the kookaburras and maybe the occasional bush turkey! Here is a place of peace, privacy and solitude, overlooking your very own 10 acres of mountain rainforest. At around 1,000 metres above sea level, you can see right into the base of the clouds!

Stunning and unique, a place that dreams are truly made of....
