Homeowners across the Sunshine Coast are grappling with whether to cash in now or sit it out with median house prices tipped to hit $1m in just a few years.
“A new property report revealed the Coast was forecast to be the first of the South East Queensland region to grow to a median house price of more than $1m by 2025.”
The report, Australian Housing Outlook 2021-2024, was compiled by BIS Oxford Economics and sponsored by QBE Lenders’ Mortgage Insurance.
It showed the Sunshine Coast’s median house price for June 2021 was $830,000, compared to $815,000 for the Gold Coast and $684,000 for Brisbane.
On the back of accelerated growth, the report forecast the Sunshine Coast to have a median house price of $986,000 by June 2024 and continue to rise, compared to $915,000 for the Gold Coast and $806,000 for Brisbane.
The report said the demand for the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast had strengthened significantly in the past 12 months on the back of interstate migration.
