Nothing Left to Sell or Rent

Ann Lindner - Monday, February 08, 2021
January 2021 has not seen the market slow down at all in fact with such a lack of listings it has tightened.
Buderim is a prime example, in a usual week this area would have between 15-25 listings coming on. 
 At present we are seeing 5-8 new listings per week.
Rate my agent shows 316 agents servicing Buderim area. 
This tight market is effecting real estate agents and agencies as there is nothing left to sell! Agents no longer send out enewlsetters as they have no stock.
Couple this with Buyers, who have easily tripled in numbers, who are now desperate to buy something, anything, to secure their piece of paradise. 
Open homes are seeing 20+ groups through in an hour with agents now resorting to sending listings to their database first as it is more manageable as many Sellers do not want hundreds of people through their homes.
Changing times for everyone.

The vacancy rate on the coast is close to zero, again reports of high numbers of hopeful tenants through every open for rental inspections. 
Successful tenants are those offering longer leases, paid up front, and over the asking per week price, to secure a residence.
