Coochiemudlo Island isn’t for everyone. Yes, it’s a gorgeous vacation spot with a bohemian vibe, and housing is cheaper compared to the rest of the Redlands. But owning property here means dealing with the island’s natural seclusion and development limitations. You’ll need the guidance of an experienced buyers’ agent in Coochiemudlo like Tracey Chandler to guarantee yourself a wise property investment.
How can Tracey Chandler make your Coochiemudlo investment worthwhile?
There are some local rules or quirks to Coochiemudlo properties you may not be aware of. Your first step should be to turn to Tracey Chandler for help.
Here’s why.
1. You get Tracey’s inside knowledge of the small Coochiemudlo properties.
Do you know what type of available properties to expect in Coochiemudlo? What are the typical challenges to home renovations or maintenance for residents, which you might have to consider before making a purchase? Is there a particular area that would suit your needs better? And which “Coochie cottage” is best for you?
Because there aren’t any sprawling waterfront homes or private beaches in Coochiemudlo. It’s mostly cottages and the occasional two-storey house. Each property must be about 30 metres away from the nearest high-tide waterline. No one can establish private structures beyond that boundary or claim ownership of any part of its shores.
Moreover, the island is only about 170 hectares in size. Not surprisingly, fewer than 60 properties go on sale at any given time. Don’t be tempted to think this market is small enough for you to do an effective property search on your own. Many of these homes may not match your needs. And you may not know it at first glance.
Only an experienced professional like Tracey Chandler can give you the detailed and focused property search you need. As a buyers’ agent and homeowner in the Redlands, she has years of experience and is familiar with Coochiemudlo Island properties. She has all the right contacts and can help identify the best-located “Coochie cottage” for you.
2. You’ll get ahead of other buyers with Tracey.
On top of that, Tracey zeroes in on properties before they’re publicly listed. You get to inspect the best homes before other buyers are even aware that they exist!
This is important. Because, while the pace of buying and selling is slower in Coochie compared to the rest of the Redlands suburbs along Moreton Bay, the best homes on the island are still “hidden” or sold off-market.
That means you need a buyers’ agent in Coochiemudlo like Tracey, who has long-standing connections with trusted property sellers’ agents. They inform her of their clients’ plans to sell as soon as they’ve reached out for help – but before they go to market!
3. Tracey will get you the best Coochie home at the best price (and best profit).
Property development on the island has been slow but steady. The average growth in home prices over the last decade has been 5%. However, it looks like the pace will quicken in the next decade. A few refurbished homes on Coochiemudlo are already being resold at a million or more, which is unprecedented in the island’s history.
So the sooner you invest in the Coochiemudlo property market, the better. And buying an off-market Coochie property is the best way to get ahead of that trend. You’ll have a better chance at closing a deal at a lower price with off-market properties than with publicly-listed homes.
But rushing through an off-market deal should only be done by an experienced professional like Tracey Chandler. She has the skills and clout to negotiate for a more reasonable price, well below the most expensive properties on the market. That safeguards your future profits.
4. You’ll lower the risks to your long-term financial or retirement plans.
If you’re retiring, looking for a quieter and less expensive neighbourhood away from urban life, or establishing an affordable vacation house or bed-and-breakfast away, Coochiemudlo can be your paradise.
- The island is naturally secluded from the mainland, with just several hundred residents who are mostly middle class and over 60 years old. It’s a closely-knit community that’s supportive of retirees.
- There are enough reasonably-priced cafes, shops, markets and facilities to meet your daily needs. It’s easy to drive, bike or walk from end to end. You won’t have to take the ferry to the mainland often or spend much on petrol to get around.
- There’s plenty of natural beauty to entertain anyone, from the sandy beaches to the mangroves on the western side. You or your guests can go birdwatching, swimming, or fishing on weekends – all of which don’t cost much.
But your plans could be ruined if the house you end up with brings more trouble than it’s worth.
So do you have the skills and experience to pinpoint which Coochie property is worth the asking price and isn’t hiding a few maintenance or site issues?
If you don’t, you can rely on Tracey Chandler. Her experienced eye can spot the signs of a problematic construction or an over-hyped and overpriced property deal. She’ll steer you away from a potential financial disaster.
