Is waiting for the property market to improve always the best strategy?

With interest rates, property prices and buyer confidence dominating the headlines, it's understandable that some buyers and sellers are wondering whether now is the right time to make their next move.

But waiting for the perfect market isn't always the same as waiting for the right opportunity.

For buyers, greater choice can create opportunities. For sellers, it's worth considering the bigger picture, particularly if you're buying and selling in the same market.

Sometimes the right decision is to act. Sometimes it's to wait.

Our latest article explores why understanding your circumstances, the local market and the opportunities in front of you can be more valuable than trying to predict what happens next.

Buyers are still buying, but what makes them commit?

With more properties to choose from and buyers becoming increasingly selective, what makes someone decide a particular home is worth pursuing?

Recent Northern Beaches auction results are a reminder that buyers are still prepared to compete when the right property comes along.

But successful campaigns aren't simply about attracting attention. They're about understanding what buyers value, reaching the right audience, responding to feedback and negotiating every opportunity.

Our latest article explores what's motivating buyers in today's market and why understanding those decisions can make all the difference for sellers.

Your buyer might be looking somewhere else now.

The person most likely to buy your home might not be searching in your suburb. At least, not yet.

As buyers adjust their budgets and priorities, many are broadening their searches, considering neighbouring suburbs or exploring different property types to find the right fit.

For sellers, this means the potential buyer pool may extend well beyond the local area.

At Cunninghams, our connected team and shared buyer network across the Northern Beaches help us look beyond suburb boundaries, matching properties with buyers who may not have considered that location before.

Our latest article explores how buyer behaviour is changing and why reaching the right buyers matters more than ever.

Market Matters | September 2026

It’s easy to focus on the headlines, but they only tell part of the story.

Sales volumes across the Northern Beaches may be around 20% lower than this time last year, but that still means roughly 80% of the previous level of transactions are taking place. People are still buying and selling, and there’s valuable insight in understanding where those transactions are happening and what’s driving them.

We’re also seeing a shift in the mix of properties selling, with apartments representing a greater proportion of transactions as buyers adapt to affordability and borrowing constraints.

As John Cunningham recently reminded our team, it’s not just what’s happening in the market, it’s what we’re doing in the market that matters.

In our latest Market Matters, we look beyond the broader statistics at what we’re seeing on the Northern Beaches, how buyer behaviour is changing and why strategy matters in the current market.

It’s not just what’s happening in the market. It’s what we do in the market that matters.

Another interest rate rise brings another round of headlines about property prices, buyer confidence and what might happen next.

Those factors matter. But at Cunninghams, our focus remains on what we can influence: how each property is positioned, how buyers are engaged, how we respond to feedback and how every opportunity is negotiated.

As John Cunningham reminded our team this week, it can be easy to get bogged down in the negatives. Instead, we need to focus on each individual property, each campaign and what we can do to achieve the strongest possible result in the market we have.

Our latest article explores why strategy matters even more when market conditions become challenging.

Sometimes the highest offer doesn’t arrive later. The strongest buyer may have already been through the door.

When an offer arrives early in a campaign, it’s natural to wonder whether waiting could deliver more. Sometimes it does. But while you wait, new properties come to market, motivated buyers can move on and the negotiating dynamics can change.

Our latest article explores the cost of waiting for a better offer, why early buyer feedback matters and how skilled negotiation can help sellers recognise when to push and when the market is providing valuable information.
