As we welcome in Spring, there is a noticeable shift not just in the air, but in the property market. Buyer energy is blossoming as vibrantly as the gardens. Fuelled by rising confidence, easing interest rates and continued value growth across the country, we can expect an active selling season ahead.

According to Cotality’s latest Housing Chart Pack, national housing values lifted 1.8% over the three months to August – the strongest quarterly growth since early 2024. The total value of Australian residential real estate now stands at $11.7 trillion, with the annual growth rate rising to 4.1%.

Listings have also increased, with 34,737 newly advertised properties nationally in the four weeks to August 31st. While slightly below historical averages, the 9.4% monthly elevation reflects growing seller confidence as we head into the warmer months.

Brisbane continues to emerge from the shadows of Sydney and Melbourne. Coined one of Australia’s standout market performers, house values have grown more than 50% since the onset of COVID. Industry commentators agree that the solid, sustainable growth over the last few years shows no signs of slowing down.

Closer to home, the Regional Movers Index recently revealed the Sunshine Coast is the number one regional migration destination for those relocating from capital cities. With our unbeatable combination of lifestyle, opportunity, and natural beauty, it is easy to see why.

Here at Hinternoosa, we are witnessing this popularity firsthand. An average of 76 groups per week attended our open homes over the last month, complemented by another 17 private inspections weekly. Many properties have gone under contract in under ten days, including Doonan homes, 15 Naturalist Place and 6 Bonavista Crescent. Cooran listings, 9 Albert Street and 21 Saunders Drive, each received multiple offers, and went under contract in seven and eight days respectively.

Spring is in full swing via a new estate record with the sale of 2 Whistler Way, Pomona, and the successful sale under the hammer of 221 Poulsen Road, Carters Ridge. We also continued to transact off-market opportunities, including L14/11C Church Street, Pomona.
