The market is not moved by agents or their egos!

Real property agents tell you the truth - not the fluff. They read the market and make decisions in their clients’ best interests, not just collect listings that sit for months and cost you thousands. The market isn’t driven or influenced by agents or their egos, it’s shaped by real economic forces, interest rates, supply, demand, and confidence.

 

The Queensland property market is showing early signs of recovery but remains a few months away from stronger performance. Buyer confidence is returning as inflation stabilises and people adjust to the current interest rates after a couple of small rate decreases. Regional areas like the South Burnett and surrounding regions are attracting lifestyle buyers and interstate movers seeking value, while limited stock is setting the stage for future growth. Investor confidence is slowly improving, supported by tight rental markets and solid yields. Once consumer sentiment and borrowing conditions strengthen - likely by early to mid-2026, Queensland’s market is expected to transition from steady to strongly performing once again.

 

At Astaris, we understand that timing is crucial when it comes to achieving the best price for your property. While Queensland's real estate market is experiencing growth, it hasn't yet reached its peak. According to NAB's Q2 2025 Regional Queensland Property Market Insights, house values rose 2.0% over the quarter and 8.1% over the 2024/2025 financial year. However, sales volumes have moderated, with dwelling sales overall down 9.1% from the same time last year and 10.4% compared to the previous five-year average. This indicates that while prices are increasing, the market is not yet at its optimal point.

 

If you're considering selling but in a position to wait a few months before listing and selling, you may position yourself to reap excellent rewards as the market reaches its optimal point, likely in the first half of 2026. Patience could translate into significant returns, ensuring you sell at the very best possible price.

 

They are the facts, not the fluff! That’s the ASTARIS way - because your success defines ours.
