In this episode, I had the privilege of engaging in a robust property discussion with Tim Lawless, Executive Research Director, CoreLogic Asia–Pacific.

Together, we explore the landscape of investing in South East Queensland, diving into key drivers for investment and a broader view of the Australian property market. Tim shares insights on the best suburbs to invest in on the Sunshine Coast and highlights affordable options for those taking their first steps on the property ladder, as well as suburbs with strong investment fundamentals for capital growth and higher yields.

We also take a deep dive into the evolving prestige property market, which is emerging as a distinct asset class across Australia. Focusing on Noosa and the Sunshine Coast, we uncover why these areas are experiencing such strong demand and exceptional performance in the luxury segment.

But it’s not all about numbers! Tim opens up about his personal journey, sharing why his family chose to move to the Sunshine Coast over a decade ago. He even lets us in on some of his favorite local spots, from family-friendly activities and go-to restaurants to romantic dining spots perfect for a special night out.
