🏘️ Why Upper Coomera Is One of the Gold Coast’s Most Active Markets in 2026
📍 A Family Favourite That Keeps Performing
Upper Coomera has established itself as one of the Gold Coast’s most active and consistent real estate markets. With its balance of affordability, schools, infrastructure, and access to both Brisbane and the Gold Coast, the suburb continues to attract first-home buyers, families, and investors in 2026.
If you're a homeowner considering your next move, Upper Coomera’s current market conditions make now a great time to consider selling and capitalising on sustained demand.
