Noosa Population Cap Secures Investors Future

“As busy as ever.” is how Queensland’s REIQ Agency of the Year, Co-Principal Olivier Miller describes the last few weeks’ activity in the Noosa marketplace. “ “Traditionally there is always a lull in the last few weeks of the year but since the New Year sold signs have once been again springing up across all areas of the Shire.” Olivier said. “ With prices seemingly plateaued at the moment, and no predicted change in interest rates, I believe now is an ideal time to purchase in Noosa. With the current population sitting at around 55,000, the Noosa Shire’s population cap of 61,000 is looming up quickly.

Enthusiastically embraced by Noosa residents, the population cap will keep our fabulous quality of life, our green space and continue to draw tourists to our unique corner of natural paradise.”  “Without it, I believe Noosa would quickly morph into a sea of high rises and windy canyons.”  “An upside to those owning or thinking of purchasing property in Noosa is that when the halt is placed on further development, prices are expected to rise sharply as demand outstrips supply”. Added Laguna’s other Co-Principal Richard Forsyth. “I believe this is when Noosa’s biggest changes will take place”. “Already highly prized, I believe Noosa land will then become a most precious and prestigious commodity, with many more original dwelling being razed and new homes built more befitting of their valuable sites”. “Waterfront, ocean views and proximity to beach and river I believe will still be the most sought after properties, as they are now, as well as acreage land in Noosa’s Golden Triangle.”

“By protecting our natural assets and limiting growth we ensure Noosa stays the same magnificent unspoilt location to be enjoyed for generations to come. At the same time I envisage Noosa will provide property owners with high capital growth investments and a lifestyle I believe is second to none.”
