REIQ Market Update – March Quarter 2018

The REIQ have just released their Quarterly Market Update for the period up to March 2018; and reported that the Sunshine Coast house market has delivered moderate and sustainable growth for the quarter, with the median house price for the Sunshine Coast LGA (excluding Noosa Shire) at $563,000.

It also reports that the Sunshine Coast rental market is the strongest in Queensland, generally reporting vacancies well below 1%, and says this sector of the market is in serious need of additional rental stock to create a better equilibrium between supply and demand.
