With trends looking positive for the Gold Coast property market, it’s a similar story across most southern suburbs.
Southern Gold Coast expert Alex Hocking, principle of Elanora Realty commented;
“Young families, interstate buyers and people looking for dual-accommodation properties are some of the reasons behind the demand increase.
In particular, a lot of interest has come from interstate buyers ‘fleeing the high property prices’ of capital cities, looking for an ‘affordable’ place to live.
With low interest rates and the incentive to buy property at an all time high, the current market is what I call a ‘seller’s market’. Meaning good properties are in much higher demand and because of that property prices have risen.”
