2026 is here, and the Gold Coast property market is buzzing with activity. Summer has brought a wave of buyers chasing lifestyle upgrades, investors looking for strong returns, and sellers ready to take advantage of continued demand. It’s shaping up to be another exciting year for real estate across our region.
The Gold Coast continues to shine as one of Australia’s most desirable markets. Strong population growth, new infrastructure projects, and the enduring appeal of coastal living are keeping demand high. While stock remains tight, confidence is strong, and opportunities exist for those ready to act early in the year.
Rental demand across the Gold Coast remains exceptionally strong, with vacancy rates at historic lows. This means properties are leasing quickly and rental returns are solid, making it an ideal time for investors to review their portfolios or consider adding new assets. Tenants are seeking well-presented homes in lifestyle suburbs, so quality and location are key.
Sellers: Early-year listings are attracting strong attention—presentation and timing are key.
Buyers: Be prepared and act fast; lifestyle suburbs and growth corridors remain popular.
Investors: Rental demand is still high, making this a great time to review your portfolio.
