Real estate roundup for 2025 year end

Sunshine Coast YEAR END Real Estate Statistics for the Sunshine Coast

The short story for 2025 is that detached homes are near dead even in sales volume with 2024, Condos and Townhomes were down 12% and the land only market suffered the most with a 37% reduction in sales volume.  Let’s see how the year breaks down:

Detached Home Sales for 2026 were up 1% in dollar volume to $512,100,000 and up 4% in unit sales to 484 homes sold.  With 29 of those unit sales last month, and a standing inventory at that time of 295 available detached homes, our sales success ratio is just under 10% making December a bit of a buyer’s market.  

The average price for a home sale in 2025 was down 2% over 2024 to $1,058,000 while the median price, (the home that sold in the middle of the pack) was $900,000.

Condo and Townhome Sales were down in dollar volume by almost 13% to $61,100,000 and unit sales were down by the same amount to 95 units sold.  Last month our available inventory for this segment of the market was 73 and the sales were 5 putting us in a buyer’s market.

The average price for a Condo or Townhome in 2025 was $646,000 while the median price was $585,000.

Bareland Sales was the segment of the market most affected by the low buyer sentiment last year.  We were down in dollar volume by 37% to $17,550,000 and unit sales are down by 38% to 34 bareland properties sold in 2025.  Last month our available inventory rose by 13% to 129 available properties.  

The average sale for bareland last year was $515,000 while the median sale price was $440,000.

If you are entering the market to sell your home this year be ready to take care of any deferred maintenance and make the home show beautifully!  Be (very) competitive on pricing and you can move forward with confidence.  The same applies to condos and townhomes but be even more competitive on price.  If you are selling bareland this year try and discover as much as you regarding the ability develop and make it as easy as possible for a buyer to say “yes”.  This is the best way to compete in that arena.
