LET'S VISIT THIS IN 12 MONTHS TIME... 🤓 🔮 PROPERTY PREDICTIONS 2026 - READ THIS BEFORE THE MARKET MOVES WITHOUT YOU 2026 will not reward optimism. It will reward preparation, precision, and local intelligence. LET’S BEGIN 👇 1️⃣ Melbourne markets continue to bleed Expect a further –7% to –10% decline, led by new-home estates and outer-ring suburbs – what were once the appetite of investors. Oversupply 🏘️, policy pressure ⚖️, and local social change 🏫👮‍♂️ haven’t finished playing out. Add to that: 👉 THE Great Victorian Exodus Investors exit, SMEs quietly follow, and families relocate for safety, schooling, and employment. 2️⃣ 30%–40% of real estate offices may disappear This won’t be a reshuffle - it will be a cull ⚡ • Small independents forced to merge just to meet cost pressures • Predominantly permanent closures ❌ WHY? Death by a Thousand COSTS 💸: • AML compliance • Cyber security obligations • Rising commercial rents • Franchise fees • Higher insurance costs • HR blowouts FEWER SALES TRANSACTIONS than 2025 - crushing hope - just to keep doors open 👉 2026 is not “business as usual.” Scale, systems, community, and cashflow survive ✅ 3️⃣ Sydney prices rise again: +7% to +10% * Despite sentiment. * Despite headlines. * Despite social media noise. DEMAND STILL WINS. Sydney remains the flavour of the year for buyers and investors alike 🏙️ 4️⃣ Select Sydney pockets outperform: +10% to +20% This will not be uniform. Local, on-the-ground knowledge beats: • Generic forecasts • National averages • AI-only predictions 🤖 • Laptop “property experts” 💻 👉 Waiting for confirmation? You’ll miss it. 👉Relying on laptop experts? You nor they know where - or what to look for. 5️⃣ The prestige market rebounds (Sydney) Capital hasn’t vanished - it’s cautious 🏰💰 Once certainty returns, top-end stock moves quickly, decisively, and discreetly 🔑 6️⃣ Auction volumes fall again 2025 volumes were already down from 2024. 2026 tightens further 📉 (Quiet truth: auctioneer fees drifting from $1,200 → $750 - tells you more than headlines 😊) 7️⃣ Total “for-sale” stock declines vs 2025 • Vendor hesitation ⏳ • Longer decision cycles 🕰️ • Fewer sellers – as many have nowhere to relocate 🏡❌ 👉 Less stock + steady demand = upward pressure 🔺 8️⃣ Crypto volatility triggers capital rotation Bitcoin de-risks ⚡ →investors panic 😱 → capital rotates into tangible assets 🏘️ Property becomes the safety play again ✅ 9️⃣ Silver investors exit early → property entry before the heat • Early gains locked in 💰 • Capital preservation beats speculation 🛡️ • Yield and stability regain favour 📈 👉 Inadvertently pushing home prices higher 🏡💹 🔟 Asia-Pacific instability accelerates capital repatriation. (Rumours of a possible hot war matter - perception drives behaviour 🌏🔥) Escalating geopolitical risk fuels fear, triggering: • Expat wealth returning home ✈️ • Australian PR holders moving capital back to 🇦🇺 • Safety-first buying decisions 🛡️ FINAL THOUGHT By the time the headlines turn in favour of what you want to hear, the best property will already be gone 🚪🏡 2026 won’t reward those waiting on the sidelines. It will reward those who move early, buy well, and buy informed ✅ 📉📈 Miss the noise. Don’t miss the window.

Aging well... Tick Tock - Tick Tock...

Helmets on - incoming...🤨 Don't give them any more ideas...

My prediction - this sign will be picked up by the media & will soon do the rounds... Small business operators - don't want to raise prices BUT HAVE TO - in order to survive...

F’n livid Cu%€… 😂 This Cu%€ - has had way too much sugar… 🤓

WTAF…??? Good news…???

Seriously…???

The red head - will truly crash the market in 2028 when ON takes the helm… just putting it out there 😬✌️

SHOW ME THE MONEY... THE SELLING AGENT HAS BEEN CHOSEN. A few weeks ago, I put out a call to selling agents across Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs. The brief was simple: Who was prepared to step forward and demonstrate why they should be entrusted with achieving the best possible result for our clients’ Darling Point property? Today, I can reveal the successful candidates: Ferry Suwito & his assistant agent Sam Fayad from Ray White. Ferry has previously demonstrated his ability to advocate strongly for our clients, including a recent sale in Bondi. That experience certainly earned him consideration, but it didn’t guarantee him the appointment. Ferry still had to demonstrate that he was the right agent for this property, these vendors and their objectives. A distinction that matters to our team. We believe the right agent should be selected on merit, strategy, local knowledge, communication, relationships and, ultimately, their ability to deliver for the client. * Not simply because they’re an acquaintance. * Not because they wear the same brand. & * Certainly not because it’s the easiest option. Our responsibility is to our clients and that means looking beyond familiar faces and familiar logos to find the right fit for the job. Congratulations, Ferry. Now the real work begins. I look forward to seeing the campaign unfold and sharing the property with our X friends... As they say: SHOW ME THE MONEY...
