Why the Property Market’s Still Buzzing While...

...While Everyone’s Mentally on Holidays

Around the RealWay office, talk has already turned to Christmas trees, carols, and weekend plans. The weather’s warmer, the shops are getting festive, and most people are starting to mentally clock off for the year.

But Toowoomba’s property market didn’t get the memo.

And neither did we.

Traditionally, October through December is when things slow down — but last year, we decided that wouldn’t be us. Instead, we leaned in. While others switched to holiday mode, we sharpened our focus.

And it paid off.

Because right now, while plenty of people are ready to “holiday-it-up,” others are in full property mode — buying, selling, and securing deals before the Christmas break. There’s a strong sense of urgency in the air, and buyer FOMO (fear of missing out) is driving quick, confident decisions.

The result?

Open homes are still well attended, negotiations are moving fast, and quality homes are selling quickly, often above expectations.

For sellers, this is great news. With fewer new listings on the market, well-presented homes are standing out and attracting serious attention. The combination of active buyers and low stock means the final months of the year can be surprisingly strong for results.

If you’ve been thinking about selling, don’t assume it’s too late. The spring momentum hasn’t slowed, and there’s still time to make a move before the holidays.

Thinking of selling before Christmas? There’s still time — talk to any of our agents today.
