Autumn Advantage: Low Winds, High Demand

As you’ve no doubt noticed, we’re experiencing the most gl​orious autumn weather—clear skies, golden light, and low winds days – perfect conditions for presenting homes at their best. Add to that the return to routine after Easter, school holidays and the election, and we’re seeing a surge in buyer engagement.

With the government now decided, there’s a renewed sense of certainty in the market—and a pretty clear window ahead before the July school holidays set in. Autumn offers the ideal mix: comfortable open home conditions, beautiful natural light, and focused buyers ready to make a move.

We usually recommend launching during school terms, when buyers are less distracted and families are more available. In contrast, school holidays often mean travel plans, kids at home, and fewer opportunities for sellers to present their properties at their best and a more limited market of buyers.

Momentum is already building with four properties under offer in the past week. North Coogee Specialist Carlie Baker managed the campaign of a standout sale this week—6 Wanstead Street, North Coogee —attracted 12 competitive offers, with a cash unconditional offer accepted. A brilliant result and a clear sign of strong buyer demand.

If you’re thinking about selling now or in spring, Autumn is a great time to get things underway. From property preparation to timing and market strategy, it all starts with a conversation. And as always, we are here to help listen to your needs and provide considered advice that’s tailored to your unique circumstances.
