A fantastic band of weather was enjoyed on the coast over the Anzac Day weekend with a beautiful temperature each day in the low 20’s!

Another sale to report this week with 1 Belvedere Terrace being contracted on Monday for $1,437,000.

It’s been a difficult marketplace this financial year with volume of transactions looking to be lower than the post GFC financial year. I feel as though we have seen an increase in confidence in the last few weeks regarding the property market. An interesting statistic to share with you that in January 2023 there were 7 transactions in Lorne with a total value of $11,691,000 So far for April there have been 7 transactions with a total value of $15,026,000! Never would I have imagined us having a stronger April than January, which reinforces my commentary of an increase in confidence in the coastal property sector.
