As the cooler months roll in, the property market in Jimboomba and surrounds might be heating up – thanks to the latest interest-rate cut.
On Tuesday, the Reserve Bank handed down a rate cut that’s expected to do more than just shave a little off mortgage repayments. It’s also likely to boost borrowing capacity for many buyers, and perhaps more importantly, breathe fresh confidence into the market.
In the bigger picture, experts are predicting this move could ignite a new wave of buying and selling activity right across the country. And on the ground here in our local area, we’re already seeing signs of momentum.
Despite the seasonal slowdown typically expected in winter, the Jimboomba market has remained resilient. Buyer competition continues to be strong – even as new listings have slowed. According to recent data, the number of new properties coming to market in April was 10.8% lower than the same time last year, and total homes for sale were down 2.2%.
That lack of stock is making well-presented, well-priced homes incredibly competitive.
We recently held a mid-week open home at 10am on a Tuesday – usually a quiet time—and still had 10 groups through the door. It was one of those homes where the presentation was on point and the pricing strategy was spot-on. Buyers can recognise quality and value in this market, and they act fast.
The biggest challenge right now? Encouraging sellers to take that leap and list their homes. While buyers are out there, motivated and ready, they’re working with fewer choices. That presents an opportunity for sellers who are thinking of making a move – especially if their property is ready to go.
If you’re considering selling, or just want a chat about where your property sits in this shifting landscape, we’re always here to help.
