Perth’s new apartment market recorded its strongest quarter of sales since Q4 2021, with 412 apartments sold in Q1 2026 and a record quarterly sold value of $537 million, according to Urbis’ latest Apartment Essentials results.

Urbis said the March quarter result reflects strong, highly product‑specific demand across both ends of the market, from more attainable projects delivering at scale, through to premium stock being absorbed by equity‑rich downsizers.&nbsp;

David Cresp, Partner at Urbis, said the key story in Perth is not demand, it is the market’s ability to convert demand into delivered housing.&nbsp;

“This is the strongest sales quarter since Q4 2021, and it reinforces that demand in Perth is real and it’s local,” David Cresp said. “But the task now is delivery, turning that demand into projects that can actually be built and completed.”&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=110291 project_image_fid=302785]

<h2>Affordable product leads, premium demand remains resilient</h2>

Sales in Q1 were led by more affordable projects, with The Boulevard (SKS Group) recording 115 sales in the quarter, the presentation noting this is only the second time a single project has surpassed 100 quarterly sales. The project was able to offer more affordable housing product right next to a train station.&nbsp;

Palmyra West (Finbar) also delivered strong results with 28 sales in Q1, following 84 sales in Q4, with an average price of under $800,000, underscoring depth of demand for well‑located, attainable new stock.&nbsp;

At the premium end, Urbis said downsizer demand is continuing, with the results highlighting Romeo (Applecross, Finbar) recording 75 sales and reaching almost 50% sold in one quarter.

Jual (Shenton Park, Celsius Property) also posted a strong quarter with 28 sales, reaching 39% sold in one quarter.

Urbis noted that Perth apartment demand is not speculative, not investor‑led, and not uniform, describing it as localised, often equity‑driven and highly product‑specific, a pattern reflected in the polarisation between strong “attainable” performers and premium downsizer product.&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=148957 project_image_fid=364102]

<h2>Prices underpinned by costs, and the delivery risk is growing</h2>

Urbis said pricing pressure is cost not demand‑driven: construction costs and delivery risk are now a central constraint, with the results noting build costs remain elevated and volatile, and that energy, fuel and labour uncertainty weigh on feasibility.

David Cresp said a growing challenge for private Build‑to‑Sell developers is simply securing a builder in the current environment.

“Developers are really feeling the pressure from a building market that was operating at capacity and securing a builder is challenging,” David Cresp said, adding that even where a builder can be secured, “trying to get to the price that makes the development financially viable is incredibly challenging in the current market.”&nbsp;

Urbis’ broader WA commentary also notes that industry remains at or above capacity with lot and housing creation, and that many builders are limiting new sales to manage stretched workforces and fixed‑price contract pressures, conditions that flow directly into apartment feasibility and delivery timing.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=108869 project_image_fid=317905]

<h2>Supply: improving later, but still constrained, and Perth lags eastern benchmarks</h2>

While near‑term supply remains constrained, Urbis’ forecast shows completions lifting “Supply is forecast to be back above 1,500 apartments per annum for the first time since 2019”, with 1,775 completions forecast for 2026, and volumes remaining above that level over the following years.&nbsp;

Looking further ahead, completions are forecast to reach 2,500 in 2028, with the report noting 32% of that total is social/affordable, reflecting the role of government‑supported delivery in rebuilding the pipeline.&nbsp;

However, Urbis said Perth remains behind comparable markets on pipeline scale. In a national comparison of projects under construction, the report shows under construction Perth Build‑to‑Sell (BTS) at 3,446 apartments versus the Gold Coast at 7,922. Mr Cresp said “The challenge for Perth is how to we grow the delivery pipeline”.

Urbis’ conclusion is that Perth’s market is increasingly defined by product discipline and delivery certainty, with the research identifying “delivery certainty is key” and calling out builder risk and procurement models as core success factors, alongside “timing and staging”.&nbsp;

Perth apartment sales hit strongest pace since late 2021 as builder capacity tightens

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/sammut-developments">Sammut Group</a> has secured development approval for its latest Brisbane apartment project, marking the Sydney developer’s next step in expanding its Queensland pipeline following the success of its debut Gold Coast development, Coast.

The approved project at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/44-glen-road-toowong-qld-4066">44 Glen Road, </a><a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/toowong-qld-4066">Toowong</a> will deliver a 15-storey riverfront apartment building with 42 residences, significantly increasing the scale of the site’s previous approval for a smaller luxury scheme. Designed by Bureau^proberts, the development will comprise a mix of predominantly four-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments positioned to maximise Brisbane River and city views.

Sammut Director Julian Sammut said the group had been actively searching Brisbane for several years before identifying Toowong as the right fit.

“Brisbane was the right step for Sammut,” Sammut said.

“With the success of Coast we thought we should definitely look to do more in Queensland alone. We then pushed up to look at Brisbane. We've been looking for I'd say two to three years actually and it was hard to find the right location.”

<img alt="Sammut makes Brisbane apartment play" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/f_auto,c_limit,w_1440,q_75/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/field/image/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.27.14%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=dYAVIL7qdcGA8ojvkslSrLjczXFejSSx" />

Sammut said suburbs including New Farm and Teneriffe were considered before the group ultimately focused on Toowong due to its strong downsizer demographic and limited supply of developable riverfront land.

The site was acquired off-market after what Sammut described as a lengthy negotiation and planning process, with the developer pursuing an uplift to the original approval.

“We are DA approved now which is very exciting,” Sammut said.

“We've had our change approval come through and we've obviously doubled the height, 15 storeys plus rooftop. We've got 42 amazing apartments that are going to be coming to market soon.”

<img alt="Sammut makes Brisbane apartment play" data-entity-type="" data-entity-uuid="" src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,dpr_2.0,q_auto:good/https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202025-12-23%20at%203.27.26%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=ohkRkY0dIZlqdfME2EZePsCQavRiBadE" />

Bureau^proberts said the design responds to Toowong’s evolving urban character, balancing contemporary apartment living with the area’s established residential identity.

“A place where traditional Queensland living has taken place for centuries; Toowong is seeing a shift of contemporary influence, commercial and retail hubs mixed with well-considered residential offerings – all the while maintaining its character and charm,” the architect noted in planning documents submitted to Brisbane City Council.

The architecture practice said the project’s form was shaped by its riverfront setting, flood considerations, neighbouring building scales, and view corridors.

“They said the mix of four and two-bedroom apartments capture the ‘fundamental qualities of Queenslander living,’ translated into the context of a contemporary subtropical building.”

The development sits just off Coronation Drive within walking distance of Toowong’s retail precinct and the upgraded Regatta ferry terminal, while also benefiting from proximity to the incoming green bridge connection to West End. Sammut said the accessibility and amenity offering were central to the site’s appeal.

The approval adds to growing residential activity along the Toowong riverfront, joining nearby projects including Consolidated Properties’ Monarch Residences and Spyre Group’s ARC Residences.

Sammut secures approval for debut Brisbane apartment development in Toowong

Developer Lanevick is heading back into Sydney’s apartment market after focusing more heavily on the luxury townhouse and terrace sector in recent years.

Lanevick, founded and directed by Steve Maroun, is expecting to receive approval in the coming months for a new apartment development in Gladesville, with the aim to launch it to the market later this year.

The 51-apartment project, designed by Studio Johnston, will comprise a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments positioned toward the Hunters Hill downsizer market.

“Traditionally it’s been difficult for people in that market to downsize because there just hasn’t been the right product available,” Maroun said.

“We’re targeting buyers who might have 30 to 40 per cent of their house value sitting in the bank after downsizing.

“They still want good spacious entertaining areas, they still want quality design, but they also want flexibility and the ability to enjoy life a bit more after working hard for a long time.”

The project sits near Boronia Park and within close proximity to the Parramatta River foreshore, an area Maroun says offers more of a Hunters Hill lifestyle than a traditional apartment precinct.

“From a lifestyle perspective, it’s really more Hunters Hill than Gladesville,” Maroun said. “You’re close to the foreshore, close to parklands, and still connected back into the village precinct.”

From level four and above, apartments will capture water views&nbsp;toward Sydney Harbour. Communal amenity will include rooftop entertaining areas, wellness spaces, and a gym tailored toward owner-occupier buyers.

“We’ve really designed these apartments around that buyer coming from the Hunters Hill LGA and what they’re actually looking for in their next chapter.”

The proposed development has also been designed to respond to the changing character of the broader Gladesville town centre, where a growing number of mixed-use and residential proposals are expected to emerge over the coming years.

“Gladesville presented a rare opportunity to deliver a genuinely design-led residential project within an evolving lifestyle precinct, just moments from the growing Gladesville town centre, and we’ve approached the project with a strong focus on architecture, liveability and long-term community value,” Maroun said.

Maroun said Lanevick saw a first-mover advantage within the precinct as planning controls continue to evolve to accommodate greater housing density.

“We think there’s a real opportunity there that hasn’t really been serviced properly yet,” he said.

“There’s going to be a broader evolution of the whole Gladesville village precinct over time, particularly with more activation and mixed-use outcomes.”

The Venus Street proposal will include a commercial and retail component at ground level designed to contribute to that evolving streetscape activation.

“A big part of the thinking was how do you activate that area properly and create more vibrancy and amenity, which is what Hunters Hill has been looking for,” Maroun said.

Lanevick’s focus since 2020 has largely been on smaller-scale luxury townhouse and terrace developments. The developer recently completed Royale Randwick, also designed by Studio Johnston, where prices reached $3.65 million. The project was featured in the UDIA NSW 2026 Professional Development Prospectus and was also named a finalist for Development of the Year.

Lanevick to cater for Hunters Hill downsizers with new Gladesville apartment development

Property developer One Living, backed by former Macquarie banker turned investment manager Chris Green’s investment firm, has unveiled plans to bring more institutional capital into housing to help address the national supply crisis.

The New York-based investor has focused his firm, GreenPoint Partners, on addressing the supply shortage hitting middle market housing in Australia.

It is backing the new One Living business to develop more than 1000 units along the eastern seaboard. The new firm is starting with a development on Mona Vale Road, on the border of Mona Vale and Pymble, in Sydney’s Northern Beaches, with around 140 apartments planned. They are eyeing off more sites across the city.

With cost pressures rising in the industry, One Living’s model is to be a vertically integrated developer-builder, so it can respond directly to the housing gap by removing the cost inefficiencies embedded in traditional residential delivery.

“We are building a platform designed to operate at scale and starting in a market where there’s a clear need for quality, attainable housing,” One Living joint managing director Joseph Scuderi said.

“It’s that missing middle – it’s that attainable end of housing… that’s what most Australians invest into and what Australians can actually afford.”

<img alt="Mona Vale" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="798dfa93-4941-4db6-a696-31e9dc18e81c" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-28%20at%202.31.50%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=mKBqi5C_DmeiXS.AtJkcR8LQIxqCqmFi" />

GreenPoint Partners brings years of experience assembling and scaling real estate operating businesses across major markets. And Green sees a big opportunity in Australia.

“For its size, sophistication and importance to the community, Australia’s living sector has remained largely under-institutionalised, which represents significant opportunity,” Green said. “GreenPoint identified that gap, assembled the right team, and is backing One Living to build a platform that is aligned to market needs.”

Green said being a builder-developer would give the company the capacity and flexibility it required to deliver reasonably-priced homes.

“We want it to be at that attainable level; not super high end luxury but at that attainable level,” he said.

<img alt="Mona Vale" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="74a5344a-4b26-4d4a-ada3-056b1220be77" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-05-28%20at%202.32.15%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=vY8hXHO4reBMdO8ZXMWCNtGZJofUPQ3j" />

&nbsp;

One Living will undertake a component of affordable housing in its schemes, which it will own and operate, and it could also run build-to-rent on some sites.

Green praised local policy settings.

“The NSW government is being very supportive, strategic and pragmatic in terms of how do we generate more supply of housing,” he said. “We think it’s actually positive for development and the bit that’s been lacking at that attainable level is that it’s lots of relatively small private developers, whereas we want to create an institutional platform.”

One Living is also&nbsp;looking at high-density projects and could take on more institutional funding in the future.

“The way we will be able to achieve economies of scale is through size,” Green added.

One Living enters Sydney's new apartment market with Northern Beaches site acquisition

It's been several years since there's been an opportunity to buy a brand new townhome in Melbourne's coastal suburb of Mordialloc. Even apartment developments in recent times have been few and far between in the area.

Local developer LDS Property identified the gap in new housing, securing a site on White Street, directly opposite&nbsp;Woodlands Golf Club Mordialloc. They've recently launched&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-townhouses/wm-residences-mordialloc-102-white-street-mordialloc-vic-3195">WM Residences</a>, just 13 townhouses which they have already started building.

Projects by Buxton Director Heath Thompson, who is selling WM Residences, says the townhouses x that perfect middle ground be

"Mordialloc residents have had limited options to downsize within the suburb, often forcing them to look elsewhere despite long-standing ties to the area," Thompson says.

"With very little comparable new supply coming to market, projects like WM Residences are well placed, particularly as buyers look to capitalise on current conditions amid constrained supply."

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6109]

The development, designed by regarded architecture firm&nbsp;<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/ewert-leaf">Ewert Leaf</a>,&nbsp;adopts a deliberately restrained architectural approach, focusing on simplicity, durability and liveability rather than overt design gestures.

The boutique scale is central to the offering. With only 13 three-bedroom residences, each home is configured to prioritise functional layouts and everyday use, supported by private terraces and secure two-car garages.

Ewert Leaf’s design response leans into a calm, neutral material palette. Interiors are defined by oak flooring, white walls and soft finishes, creating a consistent and understated backdrop. The approach avoids trend-driven detailing in favour of longevity, with an emphasis on natural light and spatial clarity.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6110]

Beyond aesthetics, the homes are designed to meet contemporary performance expectations. Each residence targets a minimum 6-star energy rating, incorporating double glazing, comprehensive insulation and all-electric Bosch appliances.

The project’s location supports a walkable coastal lifestyle, sitting within close proximity to Mordialloc’s foreshore, Main Street retail strip and the train station. Local cafés and dining venues, including Suburbia Deli and Hendriks Café, are within a short walk, reinforcing the area’s established neighbourhood character.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=134646 project_image_fid=6116]

While <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/mordialloc-vic-3195">Mordialloc</a> is often defined by its beach and pier, the project taps into other areas of day to day living, offering easy access to local food, casual dining and transport, rather than positioning itself purely as a lifestyle retreat.

WM Residences reflects a continued trend across Melbourne’s coastal suburbs towards smaller-scale, design-led townhouse developments, particularly on infill sites where proximity to amenity is already established.

With construction commenced prior to its market entry, the project aligns with a growing preference among buyers for developments with visible progress and defined delivery timeframes.

Real estate agent Jeremy Brink has left Di Jones Woollahra to move to Ray White's Darlinghurst office.
He had been the Di Jones best new talent award winner in February this year.
Brink (above and below) said he met with the Ray White office and agents and gleaned they had a "different service proposition" from other agencies.
“There’s too much one-size-fits-all in the real estate arena and the consumer is certainly becoming aware of that,” he said.
“Service levels will determine individual and business success, and I’m confident I’ve found this with Ray White Taylor and Partners.
“They’re extremely professional and seemed to go against the grain of what you’d define as a typical real estate agent.”
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2018/9/10/brink1.jpg" alt="">
The part-time model has quickly become a co-agent on three listings with experienced Ray White agent James Peach.
They're marketing a one bedroom Kings Cross apartment for $690,000, a studio in Potts Point with a $560,000 to $580,000 guide and a three bedroom Annandale house which has $1.75 million hopes.
Brink's biggest sale to date came in 2016 when he sold a Surry Hills terrace for $1,752,000.
The Mort Street home has three bedrooms and one bathrooms.
He also sold <a href="/news/potts-point-carspace-sells-at-222-000">an expensive Potts Point car space</a>.
The majority of his sales have come from the Elizabeth Bay area.
Brink was born in Canada and has called Sydney's eastern suburbs home since 2010.
The former ice hockey player has been in real estate since 2014. 
Peter Taylor, director of Ray White Taylor and Partners Darlinghurst, said that having Brink on board was a good fit.   “Jeremy is very much aligned with our values and what we feel defines a strong level of service and professionalism."

Ray White Rural and Livestock has listed Tenterden Station, a 1500 ha Guyra holding.
The agency has suggested <a href="https://www.propertyobserver.com.au/http://raywhiteruralnsw.com.au/properties/rural/nsw/guyra-2365/mixed-farming/1954755" target="_blank">Tenterden Station</a> lends itself favourably for future subdivision as the current LEP for rural land permits 200ha minimum lot sizes.
Ray White Rural and Livestock has a new Sydney-based corporate sales and marketing entity to service large scale agribusiness transactions and divestments.
The team will be led by rural agent Andrew Starr and Bruce Birch, the organisation’s national livestock director.
It will partner with local specialists in the New South Wales network of Ray White Rural to handle large corporate deals and complex aggregation sales.
It will focus on selling major agribusiness transactions as well as livestock.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2018/9/10/TENTERDEN1.jpg" alt="">
The new business was inspired by the long-term success of a corporate-grassroots entity in Brisbane, Ray White Rural Queensland, directed by Bruce Douglas and Jez McNamara. The Brisbane-based business works collaboratively and exclusively with Ray White Rural's local agents in the sunshine state helping to facilitate rural property transactions.
The new business will be based out of Sydney, and will operate statewide, Andrew Starr explained.
"The strength of relationships with family offices, corporates and international contacts based out of a capital city coupled with the local knowledge, ease of local inspections and the reputation of our agents on the ground has proven an attractive option for many vendors with major agricultural assets to sell.
"This approach has worked well for vendors in Queensland for 25 years, and we anticipate it will be as attractive for clients in New South Wales,” he said.
The dual-agent approach exposes properties to a broader buyer pool, co-director Bruce Birch said.
<a href="https://www.propertyobserver.com.au/http://raywhiteruralnsw.com.au/properties/rural/nsw/guyra-2365/mixed-farming/1954755" target="_blank">Tenterden Station at Guyra</a> has paddocks designed to facilitate a rotational grazing model aimed at maximising livestock production while maintaining pasture longevity.

Ray White agents across Australasia achieved $3.4 billion in sales during August, which was the same tally as July.
However it was down on last August.
The last month of winter in 2017 saw the headline sales figure for Australia and New Zealand come at $3.67 billion, which was up nine percent compared to 2016.
At the time it was noted August 2017 "had produced a better result than many might have expected."
This week Brian White noted "while well below the result last year, it supports our view that the market may well have now adjusted."
Brian White, chairman of real estate agency Ray White, said the majority of the market correction had already happened.
“There has been an adjustment and I believe that much of that adjustment has been made,” Mr White said.
“The speed of the growth in Sydney and Melbourne was unsustainable.
"We are experiencing a healthier market.”
Markets outside Sydney and Melbourne had been resilient. 
“Only an explosion in interest rates would pull the market down significantly,” he said.
State based figures were not available for August 2018.
But in August 2017 New South Wales sales had lifted 18 per cent year on year to $1.259 billion. Sales volume in Victoria jumped 30 per cent to $647 million.
In August 2017 Queensland’s sales came in at $696 million, just $2 million shy of the same time in 2016. Tasmania booked $10 million, while Western Australia reported $84 million and South Australian sales came in at $117 million.  Its New Zealand network reported $629 million in August 2017, down 13 per cent on the same period in 2016.

The buyers were a local winery expanding their operations. Mr Thornton said the landscape was changing in the Sunraysia horticulture region.
"Interest in the property came from many diverse industries and companies not just locally but also nationally and internationally.
"There are many large international corporations that have Sunraysia under their microscope as a place they want to invest in and that is very exciting for our region,” he said.

"This farm is essentially now a farm to plate operation,” Mr Portaro said.
"We have some big international wineries looking to buy in Mildura, plus solar farms and large horticultural operations.” Mr Portaro said. 
“This region is the food bowl for Australia and international buyers firmly believe that the future is in farming.”

<html><body><div class="page" title="Page 1">Deborah Brady and Jody Fewster (pictured above) have opened a new Ray White office in Peppermint Grove in the heart of their local Perth market. 
There is 23 years real estate experience between them.
They both came from the Acton agency.
“I’ve always loved it and now I’m really excited to run my own business for the first time," Ms Brady said.
" It’s one of the most exciting things I’ve ever done,” she said.
When she started in real estate, Ms Fewster said her original intention was that it would be a stepping stone, but that she just fell in love with selling homes.
“It’s never about just one sale … we’re building lifetime relationships,” she said.
"Cottesloe, Peppermint Grove and Mosman Park offer a range of property types, from luxury multi-million dollar waterfront properties to small apartments but we want to sell everything in our and around our neighbourhood."
Ray White WA CEO Mark Whiteman welcomed Ms Brady and Ms Fewster to the group.

Ray White Remuera has again been named the top office in the Ray White Group.
It was for the third year in a row.
Edging out Double Bay, the Auckland business won the award based on the highest settled commission.
Ray White Double Bay - with the dress circle address in Sydney’s eastern suburbs - had more than $930 million in residential sales.
The year saw a return of the lower north shore office in Sydney to the top 10.
Ray White Remuera principal Megan Jaffe said credit goes to the team effort.
The award came after a year in which the Ray White Group sold $45.4 billion in property.
It compared to $44.7 billion in annual sales in 2016-17, which was raised to $45.7 billion once all the sales were tallied.
The group also revealed its top-performing principal and agent for 2017-18 with Andrew Jolliffe (pictured below) announced as the company's number one principal internationally.
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2018/8/14/JOLLIFFE.JPG" alt="">
Sydney-based Mr Jolliffe, headed up the group's hospitality and leisure arm in the Asia-Pacific.
But Jolliffe has stopped selling under the Ray White brand as he now "works in partnership with the White family and Daniel Dragicevich" at HTL.
Gavin Rubinstein of Ray White Double Bay (pictured below) was named as the top international residential performer for the sixth year in a row.
 <img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2018/8/14/GAVIN%20.jpeg" alt="">

The Ray White bi-annual Auction Under The Stars event last night in Brisbane saw almost $14 million of property changing hands.
Auctioneer Haesley Cush sold 10 properties of the 27 on offer in front of a crowd of 300.
“The good news story in Brisbane is the inner north continue to shine,“ he said.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2018/5/24/cush2.jpg" alt="">
A two bedroom ground floor courtyard townhouse in New Farm at 7/32 Hazelwood St got away first selling for $780,000 through Ray White New Farm marketing agent Scott Darwon.
Then a luxury five bedroom contemporary Clayfield home at 52 Union Street (top) sold under the hammer for $2.145 million to a Sydney family moving to Brisbane.
“This beautiful home was bought by a lovely family from Sydney whose daughters are going to St Margarets,” said joint marketing agent Christine Rudolph, of Ray White New Farm.
Ray White New Farm | Spring Hill director Matt Lancashire said the market was “not too hot and not too cold”.
“There’s plenty of people looking to buy in all price brackets in Brisbane and we had action on pretty much  everything tonight which shows great confidence in the market and the auction process which creates competition for our vendors,” Mr Lancashire said.
Cush said the resurgence of the inner city apartment market was a theme of the current market.

“No doubt units have been softer up until now but we saw the comeback of the unit market tonight with strong competition on all the unit stock we had.  
“We saw good interest on 27/4  Wandoo Street, Fortitude Valley which sold for $537,000."
Other  sales included 11 Stafford Street, Windsor sold under the hammer for $1.225 million and 21 Blaikie Street, Hendra at $1.530 million.

Big hearted Ray White Toronto owner Paul Wrigley is spending this week driving an his 1966 Holden HR rally car around NSW on his fourth Variety Bush Bash to help raise money for sick children. 
Wrigley has owned Ray White Toronto | Wangi for more than 18 years.
<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/dz9xllyip/image/fetch/c_scale,w_580,q_auto:good/https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/po.images/2018/5/22/unnamed-3.jpg" alt="">
Wrigley, pictured above on the right with his mate and co-driver, says this cause was very important to him because all children deserved to have opportunities in life. 
“My kids have a great life full of opportunities and I want to be able to make a difference to as many Aussie kids as I can,” said Wrigley who set off in his 1966 Holden HR sedan on the week long rally from Newcastle to Glen Innes, Narrabri, Forbes, Griffith, Orange then Mudgee and back to Newcastle. 
“The Bush Bash is all about the kids but we do get to drive around parts of NSW that we normally wouldn’t do or see so it is a win win for me. I get a week off work driving around the countryside raising money for disadvantaged or disabled kids! Why not hey?!” 
Last year, the Variety Bush Bash raised more than $850,000 for local children who are sick, have a disability or experiencing financial hardship.
Wrigley said donations go towards providing iPads/laptops to a remote school or towards sensory lighting to severely disabled kids throughout all parts of NSW. 
“There’s sporting grants to disabled kids that have a passion or a talent in their chosen field. A wheelchair helped a disabled kid in Forster who had never been on the sand. They bought an air conditioner for a family who couldn’t afford one for their son has a heart condition where if the temperature of the house isn’t consistent he could die,” he said.
Other donations have bought a 22 seater bus for remote rural community schools so the teacher could drive the school kids to state sporting events where they wouldn’t be able to participate otherwise. 
His rally car is basically ready each year as long as nothing breaks on it. 
“The Bash route is designed to cover as many dirt tracks as we can so there are the odd parts that break along the way,” he said. 
“I try and raise as much money as I can each year for the bash plus I do a few other events throughout the year.” 
Over the last three years Wrigley personally helped raise more than $50,000 for this charity.

Rozelle's Garry Owen Hotel has been sold by the South Coast bound Sloan family after nearly a year on the market.
The Sloan family were described as industry newcomers when they bought the property from the Laundy Group in 2013.
They have extensively renovated the property at <a href="https://raywhitehotels.com.au/properties/garry-owen-hotel/" target="_blank">778 Darling Street</a>.
It spans three levels on its 360 sqm parcel and has 10 gaming entitlements.
Only half of the first floor area is being utilised for trade.
Ray White's Andrew Joliffe and Blake Edwards were marketing the property as an entry level Sydney freehold hotel.
Despite having 1920 etched on the facade the building, the hotel was established in 1881.
One of the Hotel's claim to fame is that an inside toilet was installed in an old laundry in 1937 and "was the only pub in Rozelle with a chimney on the toilet".
