Sunshine Coast & South East Queensland - 2025 Property Trends & Market Outlook

Australia’s property market is set for transformation in 2025, with interest rate cuts, evolving luxury market trends, and new regional investment hotspots such as the Sunshine Coast on the horizon.

Christine Mount, Founder of Luxe Coastal Property Buyers, distills the recent Ray White Property Outlook Report for 2025 by Nerida Conisbee and Atom Go Tian, providing key insights into Australia's residential property market, summarising the key highlights with a focus on South East Queensland.

Key Predictions for 2025:

1. Interest Rate Reductions: The RBA is anticipated to implement two interest rate cuts in 2025 (Luxe Coastal believes this will occur in the first half of 2025, recently brought forward from H2 2025), contingent upon economic indicators such as inflation and employment rates.

2. Continued but Slower House Price Growth: While the Australian housing market is showing signs of cooling as we move into 2025, the outlook suggests a period of modest price growth or stability rather than significant falls.

3. Transformation in Luxury Markets: The luxury property sector is poised for significant changes, influenced by evolving buyer preferences and market dynamics.

4. Emergence of the 'Golden Arc': New regional hotspots such as the Sunshine Coast are likely to gain prominence, offering attractive opportunities for investors and homeowners.

5. Expansion of Regional Australia's $1 Million Club: An increasing number of regional areas are expected to see property values surpass the $1 million mark, reflecting broader market trends.

Christine, founder of Luxe Coastal Property Buyers, highlights:

1. Noosa Hinterland is emerging as one of Queensland’s most sought-after luxury property markets for 2025.

Luxury Market Shake-Up: Queensland on the Rise

The luxury property market is undergoing a notable transformation and Queensland’s coastal luxury property markets are rapidly climbing the ranks second to Sydney, challenging traditional strongholds such as Melbourne.

• Gold Coast has officially overtaken Melbourne as Australia’s second most expensive luxury market, with a 50% growth in five years and top-tier properties now averaging $2.54 million.
• Sunshine Coast is not far behind, with a 48.73% five-year growth rate and luxury home prices reaching $2.37 million. It is projected to surpass Melbourne and join Sydney and the Gold Coast in the top three luxury markets within the next year.

With continued demand, lifestyle appeal, and limited high-end supply, Queensland’s premium property market is set for sustained growth in 2025.

A local hidden gem is the Noosa Hinterland, which delivers this lifestyle in spades, offering an unmatched blend of luxury, tranquility, and natural beauty that continues to attract discerning buyers from across the country. With record-breaking sales, such as the iconic ‘Stonelea’ mansion in Cooroy Mountain commanding extraordinary results at auction, the region is captivating the attention of international high-net-worth buyers
