Seasonal Selling: Making Every Season the Perfect Time
When is the best time to sell your home in the Noosa Hinterland? Traditionally, spring takes the spotlight, with its vibrant gardens and sunny days. However, ask the experts at Hinternoosa, and you will quickly learn that the best time to sell is when it aligns with your personal circumstances and goals.
At Hinternoosa, we have achieved outstanding results for our clients in every season, demonstrating that strategic marketing and expert local knowledge are far more influential than simply relying on seasonal trends. Here’s how our agents make your home shine all year round.
Spring: Fresh Beginnings – Springtime in Noosa is synonymous with vibrant gardens and sunny skies, naturally drawing buyers out. But with increased market activity, competition among sellers can be fierce. Our Hinternoosa agents excel at creating standout listings that capture attention.
27% of properties that sold over the last year at Hinternoosa went under contract in Spring, which was the season with the lowest average days on market at 29 days. Spring accounted for the highest number of off market sales for the year, highlighting that demand still outweighs supply in our market, even in a season that sees more properties hit the market. A standout spring sale included an impressive home in Cooroy marketed by our team, achieving strong attendance at open homes, translating into premium results for our vendors. By highlighting your home’s bright features and maximising outdoor appeal, our experts ensure your property rises above the rest.
Summer: Lifestyle Appeal – Summer’s warmer months emphasise the lifestyle Noosa buyers crave, especially for properties near beaches or homes designed to enjoy the sunshine. At Hinternoosa, we strategically plan inspections.
Our summer success includes showcasing properties at optimal times, carefully managing the balance between holiday lulls and eager holidaymakers seeking lifestyle properties. Our agents harness the season’s relaxed vibe, showcasing cool, inviting interiors accented with fresh blues and greens to captivate potential buyers. The impact of both buyers and sellers focussing their attention on the holiday season is evident in this season. A comparatively lower 19% of total Hinternoosa sales went under contract last summer. One such purchase was made in a swift 22 days at 197 Valley Drive, Doonan. Multiple offers were achieved at this property, as well as 1 Page Court in Pomona, selling in 9 days on market.
Autumn: Comfort and Charm – Autumn brings an active property market and was only surpassed by spring at Hinternoosa when looking at days on market performance, with an average of 35 days for this season last year. Fuelled by families keen for a fresh start after school holidays, the beautiful hinterland backdrop offers unique opportunities for stunning property presentations.
This past autumn, Hinternoosa achieved exceptional outcomes by leveraging the season, including it’s colours and textures in staging, resulting in 25% of our properties going under contract in autumn. Our agents thoughtfully managed weather unpredictability by preparing comfortable, welcoming environments during inspections, keeping buyers engaged and comfortable, ultimately resulting in strong offers. In fact, Autumn saw the highest number of multiple offers for the year. 32 Justin Road, Doonan was a standout as the most viewed property on realesate.com.au during its campaign, achieving multiple offers and selling in just 10 days. 16 Yatama Place, Cooroibah was equally impressive, selling pre-auction in 16 days.
Winter: Stand Out from the Crowd – Winter may traditionally see fewer listings, but Hinternoosa turns this into your advantage. With reduced competition, your home naturally gains more visibility. Properties with good winter light and cosy indoor environments thrive in this market. Interestingly, 28% of Hinternoosa’s total property sales for the last year went under contract last winter, which was slightly more than the volume of properties that went under contract in Spring (27%). Surprisingly similar results for seasons many perceive to be at opposite ends of prime selling time.
Last winter, Hinternoosa agents marketed a Hampton’s style hinterland property in Cooroy with carefully curated inspections, highlighting the warmth and natural light of the home. The results spoke volumes: the property sold in 13 days at an outstanding price. Incorporating rich textures, warm lighting, and inviting decor, our team also ensured buyers felt instantly at home at 98 Grays Road, Doonan. Quicker decisions and stronger offers were prompted, resulting in the sale of this property under the hammer at an auction in winter.
