The Sun Keeps Shining On The Gold Coast Property Market
The start of 2026 has continued to be busy for Turner Mayes Real Estate with the Gold Coast property market showing no signs of slowing down.
The recent PropTrack Home Price Index Report shows that Gold Coast prices are up almost 13% over the past 12 months with the median price for all property types now standing at $1.18m. This puts us ahead of Brisbane ($1.046m) and with only Sydney having a higher median ($1.255m).
It’s likely that current Gold Coast prices will remain elevated, at least in the short to medium term, because we are continuing to see strong population growth and a serious undersupply of new housing. That said, there is an increasing amount of uncertainty creeping in to the market which could lead to future price corrections. In particular, concerns about further interest rate increases because inflation is once again starting to move beyond what the RBA is comfortable with and the potential for changes to property investor tax incentives (the government is already signalling that some sort of changes are very likely to be made to both negative gearing and CGT in the next budget). And in addition to these matters, we are now also faced with the dampening impact on buyers brought about by further global uncertainty arising from the conflict with Iran.
The above is a brief summary of how matters currently look for the Gold Coast property market. If you are considering selling your property and would like more detailed information about market conditions, or would like to discuss how we can assist you with your sale, please contact us.
