The traditional spring selling season has kicked off early, with an apartment in a popular tourist destination fetching $10 million.
Klein Hunter Property Buyers, which specialises in prestigious Noosa properties, secured the three-bedroom apartment in the enclave of Little Cove.
The ocean-facing apartment, located on the edge of Noosa National Park, was on the market for seven days.
“The property was listed on Friday afternoon, I inspected it on Saturday, the client viewed it on Monday and their offer was submitted a few days later,” Klein Hunter Property Buyers founder and director Kirstie Klein-Hunter said.
“Everything came together smoothly and the client is thrilled with their purchase.
“I knew the property would be coming onto the market and kept my client informed every step of the way so they could act swiftly.
“The exclusive and tightly held enclave in Noosa is highly sought after and highlights the value of working with a skilled buyer’s agent who can make all the difference in your search for the perfect property.”
Amid a market challenged by limited stock and high demand, properties at the top end of the Noosa market, priced over $5 million, are continuing to perform well.
“While demand in Noosa remains strong, sellers need to be realistic with their pricing,” Ms Klein-Hunter said.
“There are properties that have been sitting on the market for months, which simply shouldn’t be the case. More often than not, if sellers get the price right from the start when launching a property for sale, they will get a better outcome overall.
“Often, early offers that get rejected end up being close to the final sale price. Sellers need to recognise that not all offers are ‘low-ball’ offers. Buyers are knowledgeable and understand the market value, while sellers are sometimes caught up in the emotional attachment to their property, which can work against them.
“At the moment, buyers are acting more cautiously and taking more time to complete transactions, but they’re still out there.
“I encourage sellers to do their own homework and be realistic and willing to negotiate in order to meet the market.”
The 195sqm Little Cove apartment has a pool and terrace, lift from the garage, polished marble features, high ceilings, granite-topped kitchen cabinetry, curved walls and more.
The property, on Park Road, was marketed by Tom Offermann Real Estate and is due to settle on September 3.
