Whitsundays prestige market strong amid COVID uncertainty: HTW
Staff ReporterDecember 7, 2020
The high end market in the Whitsundays is performing well despite COVID and what’s happening in other areas of Australia, with lifestyle properties being sought after, according to the November report from valuation firm Herron Todd White.
HTW found that rural residential lifestyle properties are being snapped up with sales ranging from $800,000 to over $1 million.
Properties with ocean views or frontage are also being snapped up along with vacant lots in similar locations.
"There have also been two sales in the prestige unit market, both selling for over $800,000," the Queensland-based Herron Todd White valuer Noelene Spurway said.
"We expect that once the borders are open, lifestyle properties will continue to move as the lifestyle in the Whitsundays is second to none."
Spurway did however jest that she is maybe just a little biased.
