The Sunshine Coast market continues to be a strong performer

It’s lovely to enjoy some winter sunshine again after some drizzly weather over the past week; however, regardless of weather conditions, the local real estate market remains very active, boding extremely well as we head towards Spring 2015.

The below excerpt from the REIQ March 2015 Quarterly Market Report reports the following:

“The Sunshine Coast continues to be one of the strongest performing regional centres, with the housing market, unit market and rental market all firing.  Both the unit and house sales market continue to see activity trend upwards with preliminary sales numbers over the year to March up 10 and 11 per cent respectively for the Sunshine Coast council area.

Generally speaking, tourism numbers are rebounding to the Sunshine Coast, recovering from a flat couple of years and retailers and food precincts are reportedly doing well. This is bringing renewed activity in the real estate market to popular beachside areas and beyond.”

This Saturday we have 2 Auctions that may be of interest – an elegant Brightwater home at 1:00 pm and a large family home in Alexandra Headland’s dress circle “Alexandra Shores” at 5:00pm.

Finally, we are all looking forward to the State of Origin series decider at Suncorp in a couple of weeks after Queensland’s loss to the Blues last night…it was an exciting game and a great effort by Queensland.  Bring it home boys!
