The property headlines feel heavy at the moment. Interest rates. Budget changes. Cost of living pressures. 📉
The headlines tell one story.
The latest data, together with what I'm seeing on the ground in Geelong, tells another.
Recent Cotality figures show regional dwelling values have risen 3.3% over the past three months, compared with 1.1% across the combined capital cities.
Melbourne, by comparison, is down 0.8% for the month and remains more than 3% below its 2022 peak.
Locally, buyer activity feels steady. Not frantic, not frozen. Well presented homes in sought after suburbs are still attracting genuine interest from genuine buyers.
If you're thinking about making a move in Geelong, let's talk about what's happening in your suburb, not just what's making the news. ☕️
