Compliments for our extraordinary slice of paradise are commonplace and for good reason. The latest is captured in the hearts of travel-loving Australians in Australian Traveller magazine’s Reader Choice Awards 2025, by taking out the title of Best Town.
However, shouldn’t that really be plural, given Noosa is the destination as well as the region, and top towns include Noosa Heads with its squeaky white-sand Noosa Main Beach, vibrant Noosaville abutting the sparkling Noosa River, and the famous eastern coastline from Sunshine Beach and Sunrise Beach to Peregian Beach, amongst numerous other natural assets.
In his year in review leading principal Tom Offermann said that for many decades, towns and communities up and down the Queensland coast have aspired to be ‘the new Noosa’, hoping to borrow its magic.
But its rare combination of natural beauty, charm and idyllic climate is impossible to replicate.
From the beaches to lush hinterland and world-famous Noosa National Park, the harmony between Nature and sophistication continues to enchant.
Whether it’s a beachfront apartment, riverfront residence, a blue-chip village location or serene hinterland retreat, it’s this enduring love of Noosa that drives the extraordinary demand for property, and a chance to invest in success on all levels, including a lifestyle that’s unmatched anywhere in Australia.
Tom Offermann maintains a self-effacing attitude, refreshing candour, and gratitude to a collaborative team through to the dedicated support staff, media professionals, and leading property marketing agents.
“The entire team has an important role to play in every sale and purchase.
“Equally distinctive is the brand’s unwavering commitment to excellence with unrivalled local insight, a powerful data base built over three decades, creative and powerful multimedia presentations with premium positioning for maximum exposure, all enhancing perceived value and trust.
“We’re continually filled with immense pride and privilege in guiding people to fulfil their ultimate dream.”
Powerful global interest for the brand has escalated via luxuryrealestate.com, a worldwide portal many times larger than Australia’s major property website, with 38,000 member-only agencies amongst the who’s who of international real estate.
Tom Offermann Real Estate is privileged to be one of only two from Queensland.
Looking back on 2025 it’s been a remarkable year for Tom Offermann Real Estate with Top Ten settlements and total sales (to date) in excess of $600m being: 45 Witta Circle, Noosa Heads $18m; 78 Noosa Pde, Noosa Heads $16.95m; 92 Hilton Tce, Noosaville $16.5m; 2/1-7 Bayview Rd, Noosa Heads $15m; 11 Little Cove Rd, Noosa Heads $13.25m;11 Allambi Rise, Noosa Heads $11m; 40 Seaview Tce, Sunshine Beach $10.5m; 17 Wyuna Dve, Noosaville $9.5m; 30 Enterprise St, Sunshine Beach $9.25m; and 1/40 Alderly Tce, Noosa Heads $9m.
In the $5m-plus category the Top Ten sales in the last quarter for Noosa Heads and environs, sold by Tom Offermann Real Estate included 71/310 Hastings St, Noosa Heads $6.5m; 752/61 Noosa Springs Dve, Noosa Springs $5.6m; 12/3 Morwong Dve, Noosa Heads $6m; 21/16 Serenity Cl, Noosa Heads $7.05m; 36 Seaview Tce, Sunshine Beach $8.25m; and 17 Waterside Pl, Noosaville $6.85m.
Of note is 84 percent of beachfront sales since 2019 are attributed to Tom Offermann Real Estate.
In 2025, top sales were achieved for 40 Seaview Tce $10.5m; 36 Seaview Tce $8.25m; and 72 Tingira Cres $7.5m. In 2024, 33 Ross Cres, Sunshine Beach, sold for $28m, and in 2023 we saw 17 Webb Rd, Sunshine Beach, sell for $34m.
As the year rolls into 2026, Tom says he is looking forward to another chapter of success by continuing to serve a remarkable local community as well as the many visitors and investors, who hope to call it home.
“I expect another year of constrained supply meeting deep, diversified demand. Listing volumes should remain tight, new construction is limited, planning and environmental constraints keep a lid on fresh stock, and many owners are choosing to hold.
“Interest rates appear to be at the bottom of this cycle, with a chance of some modest re-tightening, but the bigger driver is Australia’s chronic housing shortage and the ongoing ‘flight to quality.’
“Premium coastal assets should continue to outperform as buyers prioritise.
“Price growth is likely to be steady rather than explosive, with the A-grade properties drawing multiple bidders and shorter days on market.
“Demand will remain roughly half local and half from interstate and overseas, reinforcing the area’s long-standing position as the ‘affluent northern suburb’ of Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane.
“It is not the most affordable market, and that gap may widen; however, for buyers who can afford it, the value proposition, safe, sophisticated living in an amenable subtropical climate, remains compelling.
“Expect continued upward pressure on values, solid clearance rates at auction, and a clear premium for turn-key, well-presented homes and apartments.
“In short: fewer opportunities to buy, strong competition for the best ones, and a market that rewards quality.”
