A

s we gear up for a busy Christmas-New Year holiday season, we can look back on a very eventful and successful year.

The 2018 Commonwealth Games, the Gold Coast Marathon, the GC600 motor races, the Broadbeach Blues, Jazz and Country music festivals, plus surfing and lifesaving championships were just some of the attractions that brought world-wide attention to our region and highlighted our beautiful environment.

January 2019 will once again bring over a million visitors to our region to celebrate New Year, the Magic Millions thoroughbred sales and race day, the glamorous Magic Millions Polo on the Beach and Australia Day celebrations among other events, creating expanded opportunity for businesses and for home sellers.

The Gold Coast is one of the fastest-growing areas in Australia, with a busy and expanding international airport helping to bring investors from all over the world. Our city is blossoming into a modern metropolis, blessed with clean air and an idyllic climate, while establishing a reputation as a new hub for business start-ups and increasing job opportunities.

Every year on Australia Day weekend, Lucy Cole Prestige holds its annual Al Fresco Auction at our Broadbeach Office near the Mall, on Friday 25th January 2019. It always proves a very popular event, as potential buyers and spectators join our crowd of bidders to experience the excitement of a live real estate auction. There is still time to register your property for inclusion, and this year one lucky seller will have the chance to win $5,000*.

You can expect to achieve a great result at auction as a shortage of good quality homes and apartments currently for sale means we are now in a sellers’ market. Contact us on (07) 5592 1288 or (07) 5538 3193 to discuss your opportunity to join Lucy Cole Prestige ‘the trusted name in real estate’ at our biggest Al Fresco New Year auction event.

Negative media predictions about real estate in other states have caused some potential sellers to withdraw from the market, but as I always remind clients, the Gold Coast is unique… we do not follow general property trends, we create our own! You only have to look at the current frenzy of development in prime locations to gauge the state of our property market as ‘off the plan’ sales boom.

Interstate buyers are once again flocking to the Gold Coast, not only to invest these days as to relocate. And surprisingly it’s not only retiring baby boomers, but younger families and executive’s that are flocking the market.

Today’s technology enables people to work almost anywhere and our city is renowned for its high-quality schools and universities, excellent hospitals, the light rail, and HOTA the cultural arts centre plus of course our theme parks and patrolled surfing beaches.

O’REILLY’S TREE TOP WALK 1800 688 772 reservations@oreillys.com.au https://oreillys.com.au/oreillys

O’Reilly’s Tree Top Walk allows you to walk through a canopy of flowering and fruiting trees covered by vines whilst you explore the epiphytic orchids and ferns surrounded by the many birds and animals that inhabit the tree tops.

The Tree Top Walk, was the first of its kind in Australia, is 180 metres in length and is made up of nine suspension bridges, with much of the walkway being 15 metres above the ground. Profiles depicting the rainforest flora close by have been placed along the walkway to assist visitors in identifying the plants in the immediate vicinity. Two observation decks have been

constructed in a Strangler Fig above the walk way, the highest one being 30 metres (approximately 110 feet) above the ground.

The Tree Top Walk is a unique and innovative structure that gives visitors what can only be described as an exhilarating experience - a chance to observe life in the rainforest canopy at close range for the first time in their lives.

Free of charge and there is no age or height restrictions for this activity. However, parental guidance of young children during the climbing aspect of the activity is recommended.
