Welcome Our real estate market remains strong in 2026, characterised by high demand, constrained supply, and ongoing migration from capital cities, particularly Sydney. We find that buyers view these purchases as long-term investments - not just in property, but in health, wellbeing, and a more fulfilling way of life. There’s a lot to love about living here; a relaxed, scenic coastal lifestyle featuring pristine beaches, leafy surroundings, and a strong community feel. House price growth has moderated from the pandemic peak although our market continues to outperform many metropolitan areas. Whilst the May rate hike has further eroded borrowing power, historically low unemployment remains a major stabiliser. Overall, housing values are expected to remain on a modest upward trajectory through 2026, though growth will likely be increasingly uneven and concentrated in more affordable price points. It would be fair to say though that we’re living in uncertain times. Anything could happen with interest rates, consumer sentiment or the global geopolitical situation. Buyers and prospective sellers might well be encouraged to follow their hearts and choose lifestyle reasons over investment or capital-gain considerations. Do what suits your soul, and the economics will usually take care of itself. Like to know what your home is worth? If you’re like most Australians, your family home is your biggest asset - and yet you possibly don’t know how much this asset is actually worth. Call us today for an obligation-free market appraisal.
