Vaucluse Report – Oct 2017

By Pillinger

Vaucluse is trending ahead of the wider Sydney market, showing exceptionally strong capital growth in 2017.  Property owners in Vaucluse are generally more informed with regard to market conditions and cycles keeping up to date with property values. The savviest of Vaucluse owners have begun to list their properties, taking advantage of this unmatched growth period and the realisation that the impending market growth slow-down will mean reduction of potential capital gains.

Vaucluse 2017 has produced a large number of interested buyers ready to enter the property market, or further their property portfolios. With approximately 25% more views on Realestate.com.au per property than the Sydney average, Vaucluse is an extremely high interest area that has a constant stream of interested buyers poised and ready to compete to get into the market. With interest rates nearing an all-time low, buyers have been greatly incentivised to purchase property, securing favourable mortgage conditions. Coupling this with a shortfall of owners looking to sell in the area, many properties are selling for a price greater than anticipated, due to these elevated levels of buyer competition. With Spring here and Summer just around the corner, many vendors will be listing their property to take advantage of favourable weather and market conditions.

As the listings increase, buyer competition spreads among a larger property base and the high demand benefit diminishes. It is my recommendation that the months of October/November represent the best opportunity to achieve the maximum sale price for your home, taking advantage of these aforementioned market advantages and timing.
