GOLD COAST
The Gold Coast offers some of the most stunning properties in Australia and homes are in high demand. Properties near, or on the water, are bountiful and boast a quality of lifestyle envied by many. Acreage properties offer the best of both worlds, both the green and sea change. We’ve even seen so many changes over the past few years with industry growing, the cafe and restaurant scene exploding and the farmers market keeps getting better and better. But what to buy? Some purchasers can get caught up in the emotion of the Gold Coast and purchase the wrong property. LYNC Buyer’s Agents can assist with purchasing the right property without any potential headaches.
SUNSHINE COAST
It wasn’t named the Sunshine Coast for just any reason. There are hardly any rainy days and when it does, it’s in summer and most commonly at night, which is a welcome cool down and great for the garden. In winter, anything under 20 degrees is considered a cold day, so you wear dresses, board shorts and t-shirts all year round. The beaches are the most obvious reason to move to the Sunshine Coast. Some of the best beaches in the world are here, and unlike Bondi Beach, you can find a few square metres to yourself. Take your pick of Noosa, Sunshine Beach, Coolum Beach, Mudjimba, Alex Heads and Kings Beach just to name a few. Property is among the best in the world and a short drive takes you to some of the most amazing places in Australia. However, considering the Sunshine Coast is a huge 1633 km², most people need help navigating the best place for them to purchase their lifestyle property.

There is a multitude of reasons why people use LYNC Buyer’s Agents when purchasing interstate. Firstly, it is logistically impossible to purchase interstate due to time, work and/or family commitments. The travel costs can add up, especially if you have to travel interstate a second or third time to inspect properties.
Secondly, the lack the local knowledge makes an educated purchase near impossible. A locally based buyer’s agent know what areas to buy into and what areas to stay away from. LYNC Buyer’s Agents quickly identify areas that raise a red flag, such as those that have high crime rates, clusters of social housing, imposing new infrastructure, neighbouring industrial estates, are below flight paths and are flood prone. Since all of these factors can drastically reduce a property’s long-term growth and rental prospects, it is easy to recognise the value that LYNC Buyer’s Agents can bring.
In addition, the property buying process is different in Queensland to other states. All states have similar contracts, however, there are key differences that need to be addressed and a variety of forms that should be understood. For investors to limit themselves to purchasing in one state because it is too difficult, limits a huge amount of investment opportunities.
