Principal's Report for September 2026

Our Investor Market Review details a snapshot of conditions as they continue to change, as a reaction to recent Federal Government tax amendments.

The sales market is also showing signs of change, but perhaps not as dramatically in the negative as elsewhere in Australia such as the capital cities.

Good properties that are well presented and well-priced are continuing to see strong numbers of enquiries and inspections, with some competition from buyers still evident. The numbers are also very strong on website views, indicating that Gold Coast property continues to be well monitored by investors and owner occupiers alike.

While the short term outlook may be uncertain, the long-term future looks assured here on the Gold Coast. The GC light rail Stage 3 has just been opened, now running all the way to Burleigh Heads. Local residents report that this has been generally well received, after a lengthy, drawn out construction period. In my opinion, the finished product is well done and looks much better than originally anticipated.

The fundamentals of the Gold Coast property market see property remaining a great investment due to continued demand and lifestyle factors drawing local, interstate and international migration.

Thanks again for your business and as always, we look forward to being of service to you.
