                 The Gold Coast is Australia’s most iconic holiday destination and is a city dedicated to sun, surf
                 and coastal culture. 28 years ago, we identified a unique opportunity for property owners on the
                 Gold Coast during the peak tourist month of January. An influx of tourists descends from local,
                 interstate and international destinations to enjoy 52km of golden beaches, theme parks, luxury
                 shopping centres, world-class golf courses, award-winning restaurants, upmarket & beachside
                 bars and glittering high-rises. Here on the Gold Coast, our world-renowned modern city, built
                 around superb beaches and waterways, shines brightest during the summer months and as
                 such, proves to be an irresistible city to call home or to invest in, driving demand and therefore
                 delivering you premium results.

                 There is no market in Australia that has a more pronounced or compelling period of time for
                 selling than the Gold Coast during January and you stand to benefit from it with ‘The Event

                 January provides a unique opportunity to expose
                 your property to the largest and widest cross-section
                 of buyers looking for Gold Coast real estate. A large
                 number of your buyers may come from outside of the
                 Gold Coast region, so it is important that you have
                 access to a large database of quality buyers.
                 Sophisticated target marketing allows us to know where
                 to place your promotion to maximise exposure with
                 the most likely buyers. We take advantage of every
                 opportunity to showcase your property to a prospect
                 with our team approach.
                 Domain.com.au research (2019) shows that 55% of
                 enquiries for Gold Coast real estate came from outside
                 of the local area with many of these enquiries coming
                 from people living outside of Queensland altogether.
                 We don’t just limit ourselves to local buyers, we find
                 you the best buyer by searching locally, nationally and
                 internationally. Our role is to create competition by
                 sourcing the maximum number of buyers and having
                 them compete for your property.
