As spring and the final months of 2025 start rolling by, I take stock of what’s happening in property markets and the Australian economy in general.
While there is uncertainty on the international front, continuity and consistency are comforting factors in the Australian scene.
Most economists agree that we have a period of rate stability, which should hopefully provide some short-term clarity for borrowers and investors.
Demand for property remains high, but so do supply constraints. The very tight rental market has been supporting rental yields and long-term value for investors. It underpins medium-term confidence in property prices, particularly for well-located homes and rental properties, and as much in regions as in metropolitan centres.
Unemployment remains relatively low; and, despite global headwinds, Australia maintains strong labour market fundamentals, though more so in the public sector than private.
Large-scale infrastructure projects across states are stimulating jobs and regional economies, and governments are focused on housing initiatives.
Small to medium businesses (SMEs) form the backbone of our economy, making up over 97 per cent of all businesses and employing nearly half the private-sector workforce.
Despite this, government policies often fail to provide the support these businesses need. What’s lacking is creative policy that acknowledges SMEs as drivers of our economy’s capacity to grow, innovate, and adapt in response to changing conditions and challenges.
That said, while we can’t ignore the challenges, Australia is fundamentally well-positioned compared to many other advanced economies. We can never be certain about what’s coming so we act within the certainty we have.
In the past, many people have bought their principal place of residence and sunk significant capital into it, paying down mortgages as quickly as they could. More now ask should they
Degreeof certainty
invest less in the principal residence and put money into property that could provide a revenue stream.
Rentvesting, an investment strategy where a person rents a home somewhere that suits their lifestyle while owning property to rent to others, is on the rise.
The financial pressures driven by interest rate rises led to people questioning their goals. Generating income from rental properties might be a more strategic financial move for some than investing heavily in the principal residence.
First time buyers should be running their own race and being smarter with their investing, turning their focus to ‘timing your life’ not ‘timing the market’. Smart first home buyers are building equity, rentvesting, buying with a partner, friends or family, renting out a room or using government support strategically.
The outlook is cautiously optimistic if you’re a property investor in Australia in 2025. Several strong fundamentals are working in your favour, and while it’s not without risk, this is a strategic time to act if you’re selective, yieldfocused, and future-oriented.
Today’s mindset may be to focus on rental return and future growth, not just capital gains; to diversify across states, property types, and tenant demographics; and be open to valueadding strategies such as granny flats, dual income properties or renovations.
We really can’t be certain the price rises of past years will halt, but we should look beyond the next couple of years and buy property for the future.
Buy smart, and above all, ‘Don’t wait to buy property. Buy property, then wait’.

refreshSpring
It’s fair to say that no two homes are identical so how each of us slips into a spring makeover will differ.
Fortunately, a spring refresh is less about rules and more about energy. We’re not just updating the home, we are setting the tone for lifestyle in a new season.
By embracing lighter colours, softer textures, and a more intuitive flow, you can create a home that doesn’t just look different, it feels different. Bright, open, and full of promise, just like spring itself.
Here are some suggestions for easy interior upgrades that will make you feel and your home look good.
COLOUR
Modern: Refresh with a soft palette adding warmth through sage green, blush pink, soft beige, icy blue, and muted terracotta. Change cushion covers, throws, and rugs in lighter, textured neutrals or pastels. Swap bold or moody wall art for abstract florals, line art, or landscape photography.
Boho: Refresh with earthy tones, muted pastels of blush, sand and sky blue paired with terracotta, ochre and olive. Introduce pops of turquoise or coral. Paint a piece of furniture in a sun-washed tone.
Farmhouse: Lighten the palette using whites, creams, and light greys as your base then add subtle spring hues like sage green, dusty blue, butter yellow, or blush. Paint a side table in a chalky pastel tone.
TEXTURE
Modern: Replace heavy knits and velvets with cotton and linen. Try a neutral rug in a low -pile, organic weave. Use brushed metal, glass, and pale woods for spring-friendly accent pieces.
Boho: Swap heavy throws for cotton or gauze blankets in soft tones like ivory, clay, or sage. Use macramé or crochet pillows with tribal or botanical prints. Add a lightweight vintage quilt to a bed or sofa.
Farmhouse: Swap heavy for breezy, natural textures. Try ruffled white cotton curtains, linen panels, or cafestyle kitchen curtains. Use cotton or linen throws and pillows in soft patterns like gingham or small florals. Add a jute or braided rug.
DECOR
Modern: Keep it intentional and sophisticated, like white tulips, eucalyptus, or cherry blossom branches in sleek vases. Use lightweight ceramics, matte vases, or glass objects; and statement bowls or trays to display seasonal fruits or citrus candles.
Boho: Focus on nature-inspired and artisan-made elements; pampas grass, lavender, eucalyptus or wildflowers in vintage jars, handmade pottery or textured vases, and rattan trays or wooden bowls for small items and layered effect.
Farmhouse: Think simple, sweet, and nature inspired. Ceramic rabbits, vintage-style eggs, or birds’ nests make charming spring touches. Write seasonal sayings on chalkboards. Style tiered trays with mini potted plants.
LIGHT AND AIR
Modern: Open up the home with sheer, floor-to-ceiling curtains or sleek, neutral blinds. Use light-reflecting materials like glass, chrome, and glossy finishes. Declutter ruthlessly.
Boho: Invite the outdoors in. Use gauzy, semi-sheer drapes and mirrors with
rustic or vintage frames to reflect light and expand the space. Keep windowsills simple.
Farmhouse: Rearrange furniture to create more breathing room and flow, for an open feel that’s still inviting and cosy. Set the mood with spring-inspired scents using candles or diffusers with lavender, lemon verbena, or fresh linen. Add a potted herb or two. Try farmhouse lanterns for soft ambient lighting.
ON A BUDGET - Tips
� Think second-hand or discount when you need to buy
� Look for free printables online or create your own with Canva
� Paint an old vase white
� Turn a tea towel into art
� Buy small, low-maintenance plants, like pothos or succulents and plant in mugs, baskets, tins, etc.
� Move mirrors to reflect sunlight into darker areas
When you are preparing your home for videos, photos and open inspections, the humble coffee table matters more than many people think.
The coffee table is often where the eyes are drawn to when you enter a living room, and it can set the tone of the space. A well-styled coffee table can make a space feel more welcoming, modern, or luxurious depending on how it's presented, and can help buyers emotionally connect with the home.
It’s also a vital part of the overall furniture layout, even anchoring it, in fact. It plays a big role in visually connecting the seating area and making the layout feel complete and well-balanced.
A well-staged coffee table adds visual interest and texture to your home’s online presence, which can lead to more clicks and viewings.
As a bonus, unlike major furniture changes or renovations, a coffee table can be styled beautifully with a small budget.
Spatial Property Styling says styling a coffee table is a great way to add personality and visual interest to your living room. Here are the team’s go-to ideas for creating a beautifully curated coffee table whether you're styling your property for sale or improving the aesthetic of the space you live in.
Table talk.
Five steps to a perfectly styled coffee table:
1. Start with a base. Choose a tray, a stack of books or decorative box as a base for your decor. This will help to anchor the items you add to your coffee table and create a cohesive look. We usually opt for a beautiful hardcopy book featuring interiors. Including a book about your interests is not only a great conversation starter, but also injects your own personality into the room.
2. Add a natural element. Bring some life to your table by adding a plant or flowers. Greenery is one of the simplest ways to add colour and texture. It will also make your space feel fresher and inviting. Textural foliage is a great way to make a statement and can last much longer than fresh flowers, perfect for property styling, as well as your home.
3. Create height. Vary the height of your decor to create different levels and visual interest. For example, use a taller vase or candle alongside shorter decorative items, such as a bowl or tray, to add dimension.
4. Mix textures. Mixing and matching textures is a key component in styling. Consider what your coffee table is made from and then play with different materials such as timber, glass, metal and fabric to create depth. A marble top, for instance, is a great canvas for ceramic and glass accessories.
5. Keep it practical. Remember that your coffee table should still be functional, leave some room and avoid cluttering the table with too many decorative items.
Styling your property to sell is very different to styling somewhere to live. Creating the perception of functionality and comfort comes before practicality. You want to make your home as appealing as possible and small touches such as coffee table styling go a long way towards doing so.

LbeyondooK with Lyn Cox
‘Gem to renovate’ has been a popular real estate headline for many years. In fact, I bought one in 1998 in Indooroopilly, Brisbane.
The term is often used to describe a property with strong potential but in need of significant updates or repairs. There are degrees to a rundown property’s condition, from worn out to downright uninhabitable.
The state of the property often captures a lot of media attention. Usually, the worse the state, the greater the attention.
One thing they often have in common is an enviable location. The property may be rundown, but buyers are drawn to the killer view, the proximity to something, the size of the block or the street it’s in.
Real estate has supply and demand at its core, and to have a property come to the market in a really terrible state is surprisingly rare rather than commonplace.
People
are often fascinated by rundown houses, with a mix of curiosity, nostalgia and potential that can be intoxicating.
The best thing about snagging a ‘gem’ is that a severely rundown or uninhabitable property often comes at a lower upfront cost, which gives potential for remodelling, increasing value, and profit on sale.
The worst things are the unexpected costs and risks, when extensive repairs can uncover hidden issues like structural damage or asbestos, or legal complications arise.
Listings and sales of the most rundown houses often make headlines due to their shocking conditions and surprising prices.
Recent sales of derelict properties across Australia highlight a surprising trend: buyers are paying premium prices for homes in severe disrepair, especially where they prioritize location over condition. Redevelopment potential and market scarcity are other factors.
Some notable examples have been:
/ Williamstown, Melbourne, an uninhabitable beachfront home, lacking walls and untouched for nearly a decade, sold for $4 million. Buyers were drawn to its 837 sqm block, just 450 meters from the beach, with plans to restore its historic charm.
/ A severely damaged terrace requiring at least $600,000 in repairs sold for $2.8 million in Paddington, Sydney, at $700,000 above reserve.
/ An uninhabitable Cannon Hill residence on 1,876 sqm sold for $3.3 million, which was over three times Brisbane’s median house price.
/ A dilapidated home in Currumbin Valley, Queensland was completely uninhabitable but had a mega shed on the property that was said to be worth up to $1 million with the price of steel.
/ Prime location took a neglected beachfront home in Frankston, Melbourne to double its expected price, selling for $5.05 million.
/ A fire-damaged shell of a house fetched $800,000 in Footscray, Melbourne.
/ An unliveable property with a collapsed roof sold for $2.54 million due to its Haberfield, Sydney location and heritage appeal.
/ Last year, a severely dilapidated house in Annandale, Sydney sold for $1.32 million despite having no kitchen, unstable flooring, and only one functional water source.
/ In July this year, an unliveable run-down cottage on 240sqm in Springhill, minutes’ walk into Brisbane CBD sold for $1.425 million. Built in 1925, it can be renovated but not knocked down.
/ On the market at the time of writing, a sprawling but dilapidated home in Paddington is drawing lots of buyer interest. Likely built pre-1912, it has panoramic views of the Brisbane CBD and is walking distance from Suncorp Stadium. The ‘old, haunted house’ and ‘creepy’ is how locals refer to it!
Neglect, aging, abandonment, natural disasters, financial constraints and legal issues; and a variety of reasons may bring these properties to the market. It’s a lot to take on but the buyers who snap them up are grateful.

Helensvale, QLD
Helensvale, a family-friendly suburb located in the northern part of the Gold Coast, has grown into a very desirable place to live, offering a blend of suburban tranquillity and easy access to major amenities and attractions.
Its closest beach, Main Beach, is just a 4.5 km drive away.

dream home. Hello, Shannon
Ready to say goodbye to renting and hello to your dream home?
If you are feeling tired of renting and wondering if you’re ready to buy your first home, it is important to be truly prepared before taking the plunge.
Here are some signs that you might be ready to begin searching for your first home:
1. You have a stable income.
Being able to pay your mortgage every month is essential to owning a home. If you have a history of paying rent on time without missing any payments, it’s a good indication that you’ll be able to make similar mortgage repayments reliably.
2. You've saved up for a deposit.
A deposit is one of the biggest hurdles to homeownership. If you’ve saved enough for a substantial deposit—typically 20% to avoid Lenders Mortgage Insurance—you’re on the right track. Even if you haven’t reached that amount, low-deposit home loans may be available depending on your income and credit history.
3. You're ready to settle down.
Renting is ideal if you’re frequently relocating or unsure where you want to live long term. But if you’re ready to put down roots, buying a home can offer stability and a sense of belonging.
4. You can bear the additional costs.
Homeownership comes with extra expenses like property taxes, insurance, and maintenance. If you’ve accounted for these in your budget, you’re likely ready for the financial responsibilities of owning a home.
5. Your credit score is in good shape.
A strong credit score can help you secure better mortgage rates and terms. If you’ve been managing your credit responsibly, including paying bills on time and keeping debt low, you’re in a good position to apply for a home loan.
6. You have a long-term financial plan.
Buying a home is a major investment. If you’ve started planning for the future - whether it’s building equity, saving for retirement, or investing in property – you are thinking like a homeowner.
Don’t let the opportunity to own your dream home slip away. If you are feeling tired of renting and wondering if you’re ready to buy your first home, it is important to be truly prepared.
Let our team of expert mortgage brokers at Pivotal Financial assist you in transitioning from renting to owning.

INDIA
The big picture
India is one of the oldest and greatest civilizations of the world, with a rich cultural heritage. From the snowcapped Himalayas in the north to sun drenched coastal villages in the south, mainland India has four regions - the great mountain zone, plains of the Ganga and the Indus, the desert region, and the southern peninsula. Afghanistan and Pakistan lie to the north-west; China, Bhutan and Nepal to the north; Myanmar and Bangladesh to the east. Sri Lanka is separated from India by a narrow channel of sea.
Let’s head to Rajastan
Rajastan in north-western India is the largest state by area. Known as the "Land of Kings", it offers a blend of lively cities, hospitable locals, exquisite cuisine, majestic palaces, and grand forts. It includes part of the Thar Desert, as well as Ranthambhor National Park, home to wild tigers, and verdant Mount Abu and its elaborate temples. The capital, Jaipur, is a shopper's dream.
The best way to get around Rajasthan is by hiring a private car with driver for flexibility and comfort. Trains and buses are cheaper options. Taxis are found in cities.
Five of the best experiences
01. Ride a camel through the Thar Desert at sunset on the golden Sam Sand Dunes, and camp under the stars in a desert tent.
Tip: Visit between October and March for cooler desert nights.
02. Attend a traditional festival, like the Pushkar Camel Fair and the Desert Festival in Jaisalmer.
Tip: Check the lunar calendar, as many festivals follow Hindu lunar dates.
03. Take a boat ride on Lake Pichola and dine by the lake.
Tip: Daytime or at sunset the views are breathtaking, but evening boat rides are most photogenic and peaceful.
04. Shop in traditional bazaars like Johari Bazaar in Jaipur for jewellery and gems, Clock Tower Market in Jodhpur for spices, handicrafts, and textiles, and Hathi Pol in Udaipur for paintings, leather journals, and home décor.
Tip: Be prepared to negotiate as bargaining is expected.
05. Eat local food and try Dal Baati Churma, Laal Maas, Gatte ki Sabzi, and Ker Sangri, and don’t hold back on sweets like Ghewar!
Tip: Eat at local dhabas or heritage restaurants for authentic flavours.
It’s
hard to think about India without wanting to visit the Taj Mahal.
To do that you’ll need to visit Agra which is approximately 240 kilometres (two to five hours) by road from Jaipur (or four to six hours by train) in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. On the way is Fatehpur Sikri, a UNESCO World Heritage Site worth visiting. In Agra, there's also Mehtab Bagh, or the ‘Moonlight Garden’, Itmad-ud-Daula's Tomb, or ‘Baby Taj’, and the beautiful gardens of Ram Bagh.
Photographer and VIEW designer extraordinaire, Marna Moloney, travelled to India early this year. Here’s her snapshot:
/ Delhi – Bustling capital; historic mosques, temples, and bazaars.
/ Bikaner – Desert city with forts and the unique Rat Temple.
/ Raisar – Thar Desert village; camel cart safari and desert camping.
/ Jaisalmer – ‘Golden City’ with a living fort and ornate havelis.

/ Jodhpur – ‘Blue City’ famed for Mehrangarh Fort and vibrant markets.
/ Udaipur – ‘City of Lakes’ with royal palaces and romantic boat rides.
/ Pushkar – Holy town with the world’s only Brahma temple.
/ Tordi Sagar – Rural village; local life, red sand dunes, and jeep safaris.
/ Jaipur – ‘Pink City’ known for Amber Fort, Hawa Mahal, and vibrant culture.
/ Agra – Home to the iconic Taj Mahal and impressive Mughal forts.
/ Varanasi – Sacred city on the Ganges; spiritual rituals and ancient ghats.
/ Sarnath – Important Buddhist site where Buddha gave his first sermon.

THE REAL ESTATE LANDSCAPE
Real estate is a key contributor to India's economic growth and employment. While it is possible for foreigners to buy property in India, it is restricted unless a buyer is of Indian origin or meets specific residency and legal criteria. Most Australians of Indian origin who buy, invest in urban, well-connected areas with potential for appreciation, rental income, or family use. Consulting local real estate specialists is highly recommended.

impressions Lasting
Every property listing, every home an agent handles is special, but some just make a lasting impression. This is one such home.
7 Bright Street
Innovation and timeless design intertwine, taking pride of place and elevated in Sydney’s northern suburb of Ryde.
The striking balance of style, space and privacy was brought to life in this residence at 7 Bright Street by leading Sydney architectural firm, Mosca Pserras Architects (MPA).
Two unique rooftop gardens designed to provide natural insulation, contribute to year-round temperature regulation while also enhancing the home’s architectural aesthetic.
Often mistaken as newly built, the sevenyear-old home is constructed entirely from prefabricated concrete and is a stand-out for its unique architectural form and refined, functional design.
A mix of formal and informal living spaces are set over the home's impressive 409.5m2 footprint.
Split over two levels and connected by a dramatic stairway, the home also features a cinema room and generous-sized library and study, positioned privately away from living spaces.
The interior is cleverly configured with upstairs bedrooms marking distinct ‘pods’ and lending the spaces to offer flexibility and adaptability for a variety of uses.
The property features three bathrooms, and five spacious bedrooms with the master suite enjoying a northern aspect.
With underfloor heating throughout and a luxuriously appointed entertainer’s kitchen, functionality and style flow through the entire home from space to space.
Outside, custom landscaping places the large resort-style magnesium pool as the centrepiece, leading to an expansive alfresco north-facing entertaining retreat with its fully equipped kitchen and living space at the rear of the property.
This is an exquisitely designed home offering a refined, modern aesthetic that purposefully blends light, concrete and natural timber, emphasising grand proportions and superb quality.
7 Bright Street, Ryde sold in June 2025 for $4.24 million.

LUXURY REQUIRES effort
There is a lot to love about owning a luxury property… and there’s a lot to think about when you put your luxury property on the market to sell.
Look at your property as more than a home. Think of it as an experience waiting to be discovered by that successful buyer who’ll become its next custodian.
You need an approach that combines strategy and creativity, and naturally you’ll have a truly great agent at your side, someone who knows that luxury listings need more than good photos and online listings to sell.
One way to elevate the standard sort of property inspection is to create an event by teaming up with people and brands that complement the luxury market. This might be an art gallery or an individual artist, a wine curator, a high-end fashion designer or prestige car business.
Imagine a fashion parade set against the backdrop of the magnificent view, a private wine-tasting event in the dining area, a driveway of luxury vehicles or an art exhibit that flows from room to room.
Partnership events are designed to show off the lifestyle your home offers and create memorable moments for potential buyers. They may also produce a high-value guest list of potential buyers who wouldn’t typically attend a traditional open house.
This is about creating lasting impressions leading to great, sometimes unexpected, offers.
You are selling a luxury home, which means it is likely to be filled with exquisite furniture. However, staging may also work its magic.
It’s not always about bringing in all-new furniture. It may be a case of rearranging what’s already there to create better flow and function. Or swapping out one or two furniture pieces with bold or contemporary statement items. Or changing artwork.
There are subtle but impactful touches, too, like setting the dining table with high-end dinnerware, that help you reach your goal.
Staging can be a game-changer for properties that have been on the market too long.
Buyers are browsing properties online long before they schedule a tour. To capture their attention, a property’s digital presence needs to be next level, even more so when it comes to luxury properties.
Professional photography and video content must showcase the home in all its glory, and virtual walkthroughs give buyers an immersive experience they can’t forget, from the comfort of their screens.
Social media platforms can bring the property to life in a way that traditional listings may not. Create engaging reels, collaborate with influencers, and target specific audiences. You have a good chance of placing your home in front of buyers who may not be actively searching.
Every luxury property has a story. Assist your agent to craft compelling narratives that elevate your home compared with others. It could be the architectural history, the bespoke design elements or notable individuals who once lived there. Tell the story; sell the dream.
Once you’ve got your story, carry it through to the marketing. For example, host a garden party to highlight architectural design or a cocktail party with a guest speaker who delivers on its historical significance.
Luxury listings need more than good photos and online listings to sell; they need an approach that combines strategy and creativity. From hosting showstopping events to leveraging social media, storytelling and strategic pricing, these five tactics work together to create excitement and sell that dream you’d expect with a luxury home.

with Lyn Cox
Unpacking the Cotality Home Value Index released on 1st July this year, the picture I get is that the foundations are in place for modest growth in Australian housing values to continue in 2025.
and the steer market. to prevail tailwinds
This is due to some ‘probables’ affecting markets in the year’s second half.
Interest rates are expected to fall, possibly to the low 3 per cent range or even high 2 per cent.
Consumer sentiment is on the upswing.
Lower loan repayments and less pressure from the cost of living should help people feel more confident and willing to make big decisions, like buying a home.
Inflation appears to be holding, lower than expected, and well within the RBA’s target range.
The unemployment rate has been around 4.1 per cent or lower since early 2022 and is holding, which supports confidence and borrowing ability.
A low level of new housing supply will support rises in house values.
However, the insufficient levels of new housing placing further upward pressure on prices is not good given the record levels of affordability constraints.
Also, a rise in home values and the dollar figure it adds to house prices will erode much of the benefits of lower interest rates when it comes to borrowing capacity.
Furthermore, those constraints evident in most markets make it hard to support any massive upswing in the rate of increasing values.
If there are signs of higher housingrelated debt levels, this could mean tighter lending policies as regulators attempt to reel in the rate of rising values.
Cotality’s research director, Tim Lawless, says that based on the figures they are seeing, home values may accelerate as interest rates reduce but affordability will curtail the extent of this.
Rental affordability too is keeping a lid on rental growth, as households are now directing around one third of pretax income on average to paying rent.
The elephant in the room is the conflict in the Middle East, US tariffs and the ongoing Ukraine war, which could weigh on consumer sentiment and potentially disrupt economic conditions.
That’s a mighty powerful potential headwind. Fortunately, it’s Cotality’s
belief that it will be outweighed by the tailwinds of lower interest rates, higher confidence, tight labour markets and low housing supply.
Reflecting on the first half of this year, the first interest rate cut in February was a clear turning point for housing value trends.
Home values rose nationally in the June quarter, by 1.4 per cent and the renewed momentum looks set to stay given a growing certainty of more cuts later in the year, accompanied by positive housing sentiment.
Auction clearance rates in the last two weeks of June suggested improved selling conditions.
Interestingly, after watching regional centres outperform city markets for some time, in June, the combined capital cities posted a stronger growth for a second consecutive month. Cotality suggests that quarterly growth trend could once again favour capital city markets in coming months.
Cotality is the largest independent provider of property information, analytics and property-related risk management services in Australia and New Zealand.
The coming of the rings
The Olympics come to the Queensland capital in 2032 and five Brisbane locales are being touted as particular benefactors.
Informally known as the ‘five ring suburbs’, Woolloongabba, Albion, Hamilton, Spring Hill, and West End are expected to have positive fallouts from the economic, infrastructure, and urban renewal investments linked to the Olympic Games.
There’s a nice ring to five being named.
The Olympic symbol originally designed by the Frenchman Pierre de Coubertin in 1913 features the now legendary five interlocking rings. Coloured blue, yellow, black, green, and red on a white field, he intended the rings to represent the five inhabited continents of Africa, America, Asia, Europe, and Oceania.
The Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games certainly could transform some Brisbane inner city suburbs into vibrant, high-density urban areas.
It’s widely mooted that the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games will bring growth across the city’s residential, commercial, retail and industrial sectors.
Brisbane city residential specialist and CBD resident, Rohan Banning, is familiar with the compelling, sometimes unique, benefits that already exist inner-city.
He says the top five he hears from clients are:
/ convenience and accessibility to shops, restaurants and bars, gyms, hospitals, museums and galleries, events and concerts, and often work as well;
/ an active social life with many people around;
/ networking and career opportunities because of the sheer proximity to business districts;
/ walkability and connectivity to public transport hubs with trains, busses and trams;
/ and the diverse cultures, languages, and perspectives that city centres attract.
Investors add the high demand for housing, strong rental yields, capital appreciation, economic resilience of
major cities, and a stable asset class in their investment portfolio.
He throws a few more hats in the ring, saying that, while Brisbane CBD is the prime focus for owner occupiers and investors, there’s a lot to indicate that, as space become more and more scarce in the CBD, inner city suburbs like Herston, Bowen Hills, Fortitude Valley and Kelvin Grove will become vibrant, high-density urban areas.
These precincts will be some of the most sought after as a result of Olympic infrastructure. With upgrades happening to transport hubs, residents will be well-connected to the new 63,000-seat Victoria Park Stadium, the Athletes’ Village, and the National Aquatic Centre, for instance.
Property investors are keenly watching Brisbane markets, weighing up growth potential, infrastructure investment, liveability, and affordability.
Rohan Banning says it’s hard for him to look past his own city for its strong population growth, infrastructure investment ahead of the 2032 Olympics, and relative affordability compared to Sydney and Melbourne.
If you're considering investment or relocation for lifestyle or economic reasons, you might consider these Brisbane precincts that are widely viewed as top contenders for benefitting long term from the legacy of the 2032 Olympics.

Finding one the
How do you know when you’ve found ‘the one’?
It could be in a lightning bolt moment, but it’s more likely a steady realization; and while it feels romantic and emotional, mostly it’s grounded in a mix of emotion, psychology and practical compatibility.
What about when you are house hunting?
Finding the right person is a lot like finding the right house to buy. Both involve emotion, long-term vision, practical considerations, and a little bit of faith.
You start with a list of ‘must-haves’.
In the house, it might be the big yard or really modern kitchen. For the partner, it might be tall, witty and loves dogs. Reality challenges this and you become more negotiable on some things, but not on others.
You know the foundations matter more than the paintwork.
You can look past dated decor in the house if the bones are good. In a partner, you’ll look deeper than charm.
Something just feels right, even if hard to explain.
A house can feel like home, even if it's not perfect. With the person, you just click and can imagine building a life together.
You’ll still need to do maintenance.
There’s the leaky roof, weird plumbing and yard work; or the odd argument. A dream home has upkeep; relationships take work.
You might miss out on one then realize later it wasn’t the right fit.
The offer you make is knocked back but a better house comes up. This breakup you thought was so devastating turns out not to be the case after all.
The real commitment begins after the decision.
It’s after the contract is signed that the house becomes the home you build; the relationship grows with time, effort, and shared dreams.
You live with your choice.
Your home has quirks you’ll come to love; and nobody’s perfect.
House hunting? Finally finding ‘the one’?
It’s the property that:
/ has your essentials
/ helps you achieve your goals
/ suits the needs of those who will live there
/ makes you happy
You're welcome Mrs. Sparkle
You’ve decided to put your home on the market.
You will do a bit of your own research to get an idea of your home’s value. You’ll talk to real estate agents and possibly get in an appraiser for a professional valuation.
You’ll choose your real estate agent, the method of sale and how the home will be marketed.
You will prepare your home for sale.
Here’s where you channel that pair from the Australian 1960s advertising campaign, Mrs Sparkle and Mr Sheen. The characters and the jingle, "You are the most helpful man that I have ever seen", became iconic. Mr Sheen is a floor and furniture polish, created in Australia in the 1950s and still on the shelves today.
How clean does your home need to be?
The old proverb, ‘Cleanliness is next to godliness’, implies that being clean is nearly as important as being morally upright and keeping a tidy house is a virtuous and desirable quality.
Preparing your home for sale may be a time when cleanliness aligns not with ‘godliness’ but with increasing the chances of a great offer on your property.
A spotless property creates a good first impression and buyers also
equate cleanliness with good maintenance.
Buyers really do notice the small things, like the state of the mirrors and shower glass. You might have forgotten the window tracks… but there’s every chance the potential buyer will spot what you missed.
Many buyers want a home that’s move-in ready. After all, who wants to spend the first few weekends in your new home up to your elbows in sugar soap and suds?
Deep Clean Checklist
/ Bathrooms – focus on grout, screens and tapware
/ Kitchen – attend to the oven, inside drawers and cabinets, behind appliances, exhaust fans.
/ Remove mould
/ Steam clean carpets and soft furnishings to remove odours
/ Clean window tracks as well as the windows
/ Get rid of scuff marks on walls -sugar soap wipes are handy here
/ Wipe down light switches and skirting boards
/ Declutter and depersonalise.
/ Do a smell test
/ Weed, mulch, prune, and mow – regularly
Remember, you don’t have to flog yourself. Hire in the experts where you need to! It’s been suggested that a top notch deep clean and declutter can add five to 20 per cent value to your property.

beachy Life's just with Lyn Cox
Beach properties feature heavily and consistently in the mostviewed rankings on real estate portals. That’s not surprising, is it? Given that they have emotional, aesthetic, and investment appeal, I imagine there would be no shortage of people looking to buy, or dreaming of it.
According to REA Group, six of the top 10 most-viewed suburbs in 2024–25 were coastal or close to beaches, with Queensland beach properties particularly dominating national ‘most-clicked’ lists.
Living by the beach is an enviable lifestyle. Holiday homes give the escape from life’s usual demands. For many properties, there’s the ‘to die for’ views. Capital growth is historically solid. Investors eye coastal areas for rental yields.
Some of Australia’s most viewed beachside locales on real estate portals according primarily to realestate.com.au and PropTrack data are:
QUEENSLAND - Surfers Paradise is always among the most searched, with Broadbeach, Southport, Burleigh Heads, Mermaid Beach, Tallebudgera, and Palm Beach up there too. The Sunshine Coast also figures; and Caloundra won the most-viewed unit listing in the country.
NEW SOUTH WALES – Palm Beach, Northern Beaches, and Bondi often rank high on search and view stats. Manly is a stand out and is especially popular with overseas buyers. Byron Bay is another.
VICTORIA – There’s plenty of interest in Portsea and Sorrento on the Mornington Peninsula, as well as Clifton Springs and Curlewis in the Geelong region.
SOUTH AUSTRALIA - O’Sullivan Beach is a rising coastal hotspot and produced a record $1.52mil sale in May this year.
Australia’s 33,000-kilometre coastline has drawn the sea changers from across states and overseas countries forever, it seems.
WESTERN AUSTRALIA - Cottesloe Beach ranks top for residential interest, while Scarborough Beach earned a 2025 Best Australian Beaches award.
There’s limited data for Northern Territory and Tasmania, though Bay of Fires deserves a mention.
The house by the beach is in high demand but when it comes to coastal locations, not all are equal to surfers.
The surfing fraternity (of which I’m not part given many factors, mostly failed attempts!) realises that only a select few deliver the consistent swell, safe breaks, and accessible surf spots that define a true surf town.
Beaches command premium prices, yet demand for surf-side living remains strong. The good news is that surf-friendly suburbs with new housing in the pipeline are attracting fresh attention from both buyers and developers.
A few locations worth a mention are the Margaret River region, which, along with vineyards and wineries, has more than 130km of coastline and some globally renowned surf breaks, plus a relatively affordable median house price of $825,000. There’s also Winchelsea in Victoria, which, though inland, is a short drive to well-known surf spots of Bells Beach and Jan Juc, with a median house price of $650,000.
Skennars Head in New South Wales is 30 minutes from Byron Bay but with a lesser median house price of $1,625,000 and land, house +land packages, and town homes due on the market in coming times.
On Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, Bokarina is emerging as a surf-side hub with highend apartment developments. Median house price sits around $1,552,500 with around $1.6mil for units.
Developers are responding to the attractions of Australia’s surf towns, which is welcoming news for buyers, especially surfers.
What do I love about living by the beach? I can walk on the sand every day if I want. I can hear the waves at night. I can watch the whales and dolphins. I can chat with the fisherpeople… and the dog walkers. People who live here are friendly and relaxed. The sky seems bluer. There’s almost always a sea breeze.
BUT, at times of the year I need to be extra tolerant.
There are people everywhere. Not everybody is as friendly. All the Airbnb’s fill up. There’s more traffic on the roads. It’s harder to get a park anywhere.
Also, there’s the salt… Things rust, and that’s all year round! I’m not complaining though!
