2/6 Ray Street, Sunshine Beach QLD 4567

Buyers pay 45% over Feb 2025 sale price | Wide valuation gap signals overpay risk | No public rent since mid-2025 for cash flow check | Seasoned complex may carry special levy risk The steep 82% spread between the lowest and highest estimates suggests the market has not yet found a clearing price for this unit. While the Domain valuation at $2.27m reflects stronger recent sales in Sunshine Beach, the property.com.au figure of $1.43m is closer to the actual Feb 2025 sale of $1.25m. A buyer paying near the Domain midpoint is assuming continued momentum in a market where days on market have stretched to 103. This unit suits an owner-occupier or a long-hold investor willing to sit through a flat rental yield below 2% because the courtyard and complex pool offer genuine lifestyle appeal in a tight beachside precinct. What makes this property defensible is its position — 500 metres from a top primary school and walking distance to the beach and village shops. The 144 square metre floorplan with an updated kitchen, tiled open living and a private courtyard is rare for a two-bedroom unit in this part of the Sunshine Coast. It competes directly against tired 1980s villas that lack renovation and pool access. The buyer who values a lock-and-leave holiday unit or a retirement downsizer seeking single-level convenience with no common wall noise will find this hard to replace at the Feb 2025 sale price. Arrange a building inspection to rule out rising strata costs before offering within 10% of the sold price. **Comparable Sales Context** Sold Feb 2025 for $1.25m | Sep 2015 at $435k | Apr 2002 at $185k. The 2025 trade sets a reliable floor, the wide range in current estimates reflects either a sharp market rally or stale data. A buyer can use the actual sale as a base and discount the top estimates.
