Opportunity Knocked on the Sunshine Coast

Opportunity Knocked…But If You Blinked, You Might Have Missed It!

A few weeks ago, we posted an article relating to the last 20 blocks available in a major estate in a fast growing suburb in Queensland’s Sunshine Coast… offered up by the developer with massive discounts of $20,000 – $50,000!

Global financial crisis or not, we knew they’d go quick but to see these 20 blocks move in less than 2 weeks even surprised us and told us that a great deal is a great deal, no matter the economy.

We’ve talked a lot in the past about opportunities that sometimes come up either early or late in an estate (When do you buy?) and this was certainly one of those opportunities. Its not an unusual scenario… the land developer had been promoting an estate for several years, had 20 blocks left, it’s fast nearing end of the financial half year (large public companies have to report to the market every 6 months and for as long as we can remember they usually throw discounted property out around 60 days prior to the end of that 6 months to get it off their books) … that’s the time opportunity knocks for those who are ready. (Be Ready).

To those who snapped up the discounted property, great work and congratulations… meantime, if you liked the sound of it, stay tuned because we’ve just heard rumour of another estate who are ready to talk turkey so… are you ready to seize the day?
