No chill: Cost of living could trigger record start to home sales

Seven weeks is all that stands between buyers and the start of the traditional peak autumn selling season, but Australia’s surging cost of living could trigger a record early start to home sales.

Buyers advocate and property adviser Colin Lee of Inspire Realty said many people have been torn over whether to buy over summer or wait for better lending conditions to kick in when interest rates drop, while others are anxious that the country may be headed for another property boom.

Buyers should be proactive and ready to act at any moment with major forces at play that could trigger an early start to the autumn selling season.

“There will always be sellers, for a wide range of reasons. This year, financial hardship has moved high on that list. The end of each year is a time when thinking about tomorrow comes to the fore. Letting go of things that people can’t afford will be a choice for some and a necessity for others.”

“This is on top of the usual reasons for selling – empty-nester downsizing, growing family upsizing, capitalising on recent property growth, divorce and separation, tree- and sea-changing for a better quality of life, relocating for work and forced sales, among them.”

Thank you Sophie Foster for writing the article and to Adrian Falk for making this all happen! It’s been truly a pleasure and privilege working with you!
