Agent warns ‘smartest window’ to sell on southern Gold Coast is now

Sellers waiting for spring to list their southern Gold Coast home could be making a costly mistake with Kollosche agent Troy Dowker revealing why.If you’re thinking about selling on the southern beaches, do not wait for spring.The market has shifted from its January and February peak, and the shifting trend is exactly what makes the next couple of months the smartest window to sell all year.Buyers are more price-sensitive, cautious, and discerning than they were six months ago - that is just the reality of where the cycle currently sits.Yet for sellers who are trading up or down within the same market, rather than exiting altogether, this is the ideal environment in which to make a move.When conditions soften, vendors can stop chasing the market upward because if they are turning around and buying back in, any ground they may give up on price can be picked back up on their next property purchase.As I like to say, what they lose marginally on the swing, they pick up on the merry-go-round.Stock on the southern beaches is historically tight over winter and that is playing out again this year.MORE: Traveller exposes brutal $2 home trap‘I crumbled’: Aussie Olympian reveals $1k auction d...
