As we begin 2026, the Upper North Shore property market is entering the year from a position of strength. Momentum built through 2025 has carried into the new year, underpinned by resilient buyer demand and the ongoing appeal of established, familyfocused suburbs. Across Ku-ring-gai, price growth has been driven by a sustained imbalance between supply and demand rather than speculative conditions. Detached housing has continued to attract premium competition, particularly for well-located homes close to transport, schools and village centres. At Ray White Upper North Shore, our results continue to reflect these conditions. Ray White Upper North Shore is consistently the highest selling team in the region, having proudly sold over 900 properties throughout 2025, representing more than $2.4 billion in local property transactions. This depth of activity provides unmatched insight into buyer behaviour, pricing trends and campaign strategy across the Upper North Shore. Looking ahead, the first half of 2026 presents a strategic window for sellers. Buyer urgency typically peaks before midyear, while stock levels remain controlled. As borrowing costs stay higher for longer, realistic pricing, strong presentation and professional marketing will be critical to achieving premium outcomes. If you are considering a move in 2026, early planning and informed timing will be key. My team and I would be pleased to help you navigate the year ahead with confidence.
