27 Neerim Drive, Mooloolaba.
Sale Price: $4,000,000 (four million dollars)
Sale Date: 9/10/2015
Features: This is a two level contemporary style residential house that was built circa 2007. It has 5 bedroom(s), 7 bathroom(s) and a 7 car basement carpark and presents well. Features include: high quality fit out including ducted air conditioning, ducted vacuum, home theatre. Site improvements include: tiled swimming pool and 14m pontoon. The land has river frontage of roughly 29m achieving a north easterly aspect. Landscaping is of a very high standard and includes meditation ponds.
The buyer was a local buyer
2 Cooroora Street, Dicky Beach.
Sale Price: $4,250,000 (four million two hundred and fifty thousand dollars)
Sale Date: 12/11/2015
Features: Arguably one of the best beachfront sites on the Sunshine Coast and one of the more recognised residences in the Caloundra locality, this Spanish Mission styled property occupies a 607 sqm site with very immediate beach and ocean views as well as a extensive panorama taking in views of Dicky Beach Reef immediately to the north and Moffat Headland to the south east. This immediacy of views, a very open north eastern aspect given Cooroora Street extends along the northern boundary opening up this most desired aspect as well as the protection provided by nearby headlands and reefs providing relatively safe swimming makes this one of the most prized trophy allotments in this locality if not the whole of the Sunshine Coast.
Whilst the dwelling appears to have been updated at multiple times during its life, its layout and styling are now dated and it is not considered to fully capitalise on the quality of the site. However, it does provide a good size envelope from which an extensive remodelling and renovation could be undertaken. Of particular benefit, it appears the home has been constructed above current height restrictions. This current height could be maintained if a renovation was undertaken.
The buyer was a non-local buyer
5 Allambi Rise, Noosa Heads.
Sale Price: $5,750,000 (five million seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars)
Sale Date: 31/10/2015
This is a two level 'Noel Robinson' designed residential house with weatherboard walls and a colorbond roof that was built circa 2003. It is of very good condition/presentation and has 4 bedroom(s), 2 bathroom(s) and a double garage. Features include: high quality fitout including ducted air conditioning and limestone tiles. Site improvements include: wet edge swimming pool. The site area is 885 sqm. The land is a sloping site with a reasonable building contour. Landscaping is of a high standard. Located in the sought after Little Cove locality and walking distance to Hastings Street.
The buyer was from Victoria

Sale Price: $7,200,000 (seven million two hundred thousand dollars)
Sale Date: 31/10/2015
This is a ground floor single level apartment in the '23 Hastings' building with rendered masonry walls that was built circa 2001.

Landscaping is of a high standard. Living area: 176 sqm. Balcony area: 8 sqm with courtyard of 24 sqm. Sale reflects a value of $34,615/sqm of living and outdoor area. Property achieves good ocean and beach views via a northerly aspect. Direct beach access from the rear or courtyard of the property. Arguably a premium sale.
Local buyer
4/35 Hastings Street, Noosa Heads.

• Mortgagee sales are now minimal and bargain opportunities have become scarce.
• Record low interest and improved economic conditions stimulating demand.
• Brisbane and interstate investors dominate purchases especially in central and southern pars of the Sunshine Coast

• Buyer fundamentals are returning with a strong emphasis firstly on location and secondly on improvements.
• Caution always taken as market heavily influenced by economic conditions both local and overseas

Residential Land & Subdivisions
• Project builders very active at beginning of 2015 but less so towards end of 2015 with changes to APRA laws.
• As sales volumes have increased since 2012 a corresponding reduction in inducements (ie. rebates) has resulted, with very few, if any estates today offering such incentives.
• The number of ‘off the plan’ sales are increasing, as too are the stage sizes
• The improving market is still taking the form of an increase in activity and more stability in general, as opposed to any significant uplift in values (in relation to completed stock).
• This uplift is however beginning to occur, as list prices are exceeded for established dwellings and developers start to “push” prices for proposed new product.
• The prices being paid for development sites are also increasing, placing pressure on development margins and developers are prepared to accept lower returns in the face of a more certain market.
• The Sunshine Coast hinterland is an emerging area as the availability closer to the coast diminishes.
Residential Detached Housing Summary
• Significantly increased sales volumes with noticeable value growth in the sub $1 million price bracket
• Agents reporting of short sale periods and significant lack of stock to sell
• First home buyer numbers low with investors more prevalent (SMSF) as rental and capital value increases expected in a low interest rate environment
• Prestige market holding up quite well in the north coast particularly Noosa.
Residential Units Summary
• Majority of stock selling sub $600,000
• Prestige market dominated by Brisbane and interstate purchasers more so than overseas buyers.
• Volume of sales slightly down second half of 2015 as new APRA rules were introduced.
• Agents reporting of short sale periods and greater number of interested parties during inspections
• Concerns of an over heated construction driven apartment market in inner Brisbane may see investors lean towards coastal opportunities.
• Hot spots are generally central areas close to new infrastructure, beach, e.g. Caloundra, Kings Beach, Kawana, Maroochydore and suburbs near hospital and major infrastructure
