The property market in Robina has well and truly changed direction over the past 6 months, with the median property price for houses having moved down by $130,000 from $1,240,000 to $1,110,000 from June 2022 till November 2022.

The median price for apartments in Robina has remained fairly resilient, moving sideways from June 2022 to November 2022.

Supply - Demand

Supply on the Gold Coast and in Robina continues to remain surprisingly low. Even with the increase in days on market, which in itself should increase the number of properties on the market, the number of properties for sale has in fact reduced significantly over the past 2 months. The supply of apartments has remained consistently low by historical standards.

Demand has been dropping steadily with enquiry levels and attendance at open homes down significantly (see my summary below).

Below are the stock level graphs for houses and units in Robina and the Gold Coast.

Summary

The Robina and Gold Coast property markets' growth phase has definitely come to an end for the time being. The increase in interest rates and inflation pressures have changed buyer sentiment and the ability for buyers to obtain loans and this is now being clearly seen in the decrease of property prices.

The average number of buyers through each of our open homes continues to decrease, down from 10 in February and March 2022, to 3 in December 2022. This is a very significant decrease in demand!
