Are you missing out by waiting for the rate cut?

- With the Reserve Bank holding the cash rate steady at 3.85%, current conditions present a rare window of opportunity for sellers. Interest rates are expected to fall later this year, and savvy buyers are already entering the market early to secure properties before price pressure intensifies. Historically, property prices rise after rate cuts due to increased borrowing power and heightened competition. Listing now means you can attract buyers who are actively looking and have strong pre-approvals in place, motivated to buy before the next surge.
- Market data shows an increase in buyer enquiry levels over the past four weeks, despite rate uncertainty. This tells us demand is building, but supply is still relatively limited, creating a favourable environment for sellers. Once rates drop, more homes are likely to hit the market, increasing competition among sellers. Listing now puts your property in front of buyers at a time when there is less competition and more urgency. Early movers always capture the attention of serious buyers.
- As your agent, my role is to position your property to capture this rising demand while supply remains tight. Our marketing strategy leverages online traffic trends, such as the recent surge in property views nationally, and targets ready buyers through high-visibility channels. Selling now means taking advantage of a market where buyers are proactive, finance is accessible, and your property can truly stand out. Let’s discuss how we can make the most of this strategic moment.
