If you’ve looked at your grocery bill lately and briefly considered becoming self-sufficient… you’re not alone.
Between interest rates, insurance, fuel and just about everything else creeping up, it’s fair to say 2026 has kept us all on our toes. And whether you’re renting, owning, investing or just trying to keep everything afloat — we get it.
So… what’s actually happening in the property market?
Despite everything going on, the local market is still moving — just a little differently than we’ve seen in the past few years.
Here’s what we’re seeing on the ground:
- Buyers are still active, but taking a bit more time to make decisions
- Well-presented homes are still achieving strong results
- Rental demand remains high, with very limited supply
- Tenants are feeling the pressure too, and we’re seeing more conversations around affordability
In short — it’s not “boom times”, but it’s not doom and gloom either.
A quick note from us
We’re having more honest conversations lately than ever before — with landlords, tenants, and homeowners all navigating slightly different challenges.
If you’re feeling unsure about:
- your investment property
- whether to sell (or not)
- rent increases and legislation
- or just what your next move should be
You’re not alone — and you don’t need to have it all figured out.
Sometimes you just need a chat
