February 2026 Market Update with Shane Colquhoun

Gold Coast Property Market Update
I’ve reviewed the latest January data, and it confirms what we’re seeing locally — the Gold Coast market remains strong across both sales and rentals.
According to realestate.com.au, the region is forecast to record 7%–11% price growth in 2026, placing it among Queensland’s top performers. With vacancy rates still below 1%, rental demand remains extremely tight, supporting rising rents and strong investor confidence.
Low stock levels continue to underpin competitive sale prices, while steady population growth and limited supply are driving momentum.
What this means for you:
• Sellers: Tight supply and strong demand are supporting premium results.
• Buyers: Units offer solid affordability and growth potential.
• Investors: Ultra-low vacancies and rising rents make 2026 a strong year to consider the Gold Coast.
As always, if you’d like tailored advice or a complimentary market update, the team and I are here to help!
