While the real estate market from Southeast Queensland to the spring of the sales season, buyers will have to be fast with properties that sell in less than five days in some of the most popular suburbs of the region.
Spring is traditionally the time that the real estate market warms up and predicting experts this year will not differ between buyers who try to defeat further price increases and the expected influx of buyers of the first time that the updated home guarantee scheme of the federal government is of the federal government.
Data from the REEPIT platform showed that the competition already warmed up with days on the market that dropped in Queensland, because the interest rates started in February.
Reapit General Manager for Australia and New Zealand Simon Berglund said that the average days on the market were an indication of how long it takes to sell a property and a good indicator of demand.
“The tariefization of May had much less impact on the speed of transactions (then that of February), and this is probably the case in the coming months after the rate of August,” he said.
“The time needed to sell a property will probably accelerate in the affordable end of the market in October, with the expansion of the 5 percent deposit home guarantee scheme.
“Question from first home buyers will be unleashed, and in more affordable and some medium markets we can expect to see fewer days on the market, as well as an increase in prices, because the supply of the home is still limited.”

The Herepit data showed that the average days of Queensland were on the market at 49 in August 2024, 44 in February and 46 last month.
In the entire state there were 78 suburbs with days on the market on or under 10 in August.
In SEQ, Droevers in Ipswich registered a zero days on the market, while Molendinar was at the Gold Coast at three o’clock.
Deebing Heights, Lawnton and White Rock were on the market for four days on average, Marsden was at 4.5 and Glenore Grove, Northgate, Ooralea and West Woombye were five.
Mortgage choice Ormeau and Yarrabilba Head broker, Deslie Taylor said that she was already working with SEQ First Homebuyers who prepared themselves on October 1, while other buyers tried to close a home before that deadline.
“I see people who are really pretty stressed at the moment, given the new government incentives that come in for first home buyers,” she said.
“They are worried that the market will see that bit of a peak.
“That is the urgency that people start to feel in the market, but there is also so much more optimism compared to last spring.
“With the interest rates that fall, although it is a minimum rate reduction, it is a positive sign and people have the confidence to look for real estate again.”

Mrs. Taylor said that buyers who want to beat or benefit from the hurry of the spring season from the first homebuyer stimuli that should already get their ducks in a row.
“They must have all their paperwork in their broker so that their pre-goods inspections can be done, and they should now start doing their homework,” she said.
Alex Rutherford Place New Farm Lead Agent, this spring also predicted sales season in SEQ would be a bit quieter than in previous years.
“It will not be that extreme with that hyperergy trying to jump in for the first open home and make offers before you see it,” she said.
But the experienced agent warned that the market would move quickly as soon as it started to warm up again.
“Spring puts people in ‘Go mode’,” she said.
“People feel better, the sun comes up earlier, there is the sound of birds in the morning, the scent of magnolias in the air and everything is green and alive.
“It gives people the feeling that it is the right time to buy or sell.
“It is also this golden window three months before the Christmas period.”

This year, Mrs. Rutherford had all the start of a strong spring for both buyers and sellers.
“There is a little more confidence in the market and a little more certainty.
“Because of the interest rates that have just fallen, we have noticed that the amount of buyers that come through is stronger than this time last year.
“We seem to have more stock this spring, largely because of the decreasing range that took place earlier this year, so buyers have more opportunities to buy.”
Research agency Canstar noted that the three RBA reduction this year increased the loan reduction capacity of an average income earner by $ 35,000.
While ABS data for the quarter of June revealed that the average new loan size for Queensland owners achieved a record high of $ 662,000, an increase of 12 percent per year.
The director director of Canstar, Sally Tindal, said that Rut Cuts borrowers gave more for their money.
“This third reduction in the cash rate will probably encourage more buyers on the market, with further confirmation that the days of higher interest rates are now firmly in the rearview mirror,” she said.
“For buyers, however, lower interest rates can tempt them to borrow more from the bank, and that is not necessarily a good thing.
“Every boost in the loan capacity must be taken with a healthy dose of caution.”

Although a further rate reduction in September could increase the loan capacity of a single income earner by another $ 12,000 at the start of the sales season for the spring, Canstar predicted that it was lifted because the consumer price index (CPI) had been lifted.
Mrs Tindal said that the monthly CPI indicator saw a significant increase of 2.8 percent in July – the first increase in seven months.
“The possibility of a reduction in cash rates in September was at best a long shot, but this round of monthly data pumpkin is almost all hope for back-to-back movements,” she said.
“The board has confirmed that at least a reduction in the cash rate is likely, but it will want to see the next round of quarterly CPI results before it pulls the trigger again.”
Mrs Tindal said that despite inflation pushed, lenders still competed for new housing loan customers.
“The new lowest variable speed in our database (is) an ultra-competitive 4.89 percent,” she said.
“The Canstar database shows almost 30 lenders who currently offer at least one variable rate among 5.25 percent for owners who pay principal and interest.”

There is no income ceiling and the government has increased prices of real estate in Brisbane and regional centers from $ 700,000 to $ 1 million.
This is in line with the current median house prize in Brisbane, who broke through the barrier of a million dollars in June.
Proptrack data showed that the River City reached a new house price record in August in August for the 33rd consecutive month, an increase from 0.6 percent to $ 936,000.
The average costs of a house in Brisbane rose by 0.52 percent to a median of $ 1,085 million in August.
Proptrack senior economist Eleanor Creagh said that, while the Brisbane -Acrosser market was one of the best in the country, the settlements began to normalize.
On the Gold Coast, the median house price was $ 1.32 million.
