Palerang Region Property Report SUMMER 2026 Courtesy of Ray White Bungendore
The summer quarter; lots of family time, travel, and plenty of time at home, too. The market has been moving positively through summer, with our agents noting a pleasing increase in open-home attendances, more negotiations per property, and some strong sales results feeding through as well. There have been some major market movements in Bungendore and the surrounding areas. A residential record sales price was achieved at 79 Trucking Yard land in Bungendore late last year, setting the Bungendore residential sales record at $2,100,000. How exciting for our community to see properties of this calibre, and congratulations to the owners and buyers of this stunning home. This isn’t the end of interesting and exciting sales, the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope changing hands at auction with some amazing historic infrastructure in place, 52 Newington Road setting expectations high for gardens even through these hot summer months, and our highest sale price over the quarter was 275 Mulligans Flat Road selling in the mid 2m’s. There are many buyers out and about at the moment, and it’s been exciting for our team to see so many new faces looking to make this area their new home. We are seeing strong demand for residential homes that are ready to move into, lifestyle properties that allow for families and hobbies, and a lot of buzz around affordable homes that new owners can renovate and make their own. On the team front, we’re feeling energised and excited to take on the new year, just like the Bungendore High School students & the BHS P&C. We are proud to be the sponsor of ‘BHS O Week’ and look forward to sharing fun times with this important group of young people. Our team has never been more ready to talk property, and is on deck to discuss your goals for 2026. WHAT’S HAPPENING IN OUR MARKET?

HOT TIPS FOR A SUMMER SALE Most properties simply look better under a blue sky and in the summer sunlight – here’s some advice to help you nab a better sale price too. PREPARE YOUR HOME WITH THE WEATHER IN MIND During summer, your outdoor space is a key selling point for your home so you need to make sure it’s in great shape for open homes and marketing material. Mow the lawns, trim your hedges, sweep porches & paths, tidy the garden. If your home needs it, apply a fresh coat of paint to its exterior, but at the very least, water blast to remove dust and grime. It’s essential that your home feels comfortable when viewers attend open homes. Open your windows and doors to your outdoor area to make the space feel airy. If it’s particularly hot, have your aircon on and place a jug of inviting, icy cold water garnished with lemon, cucumber & mint on the kitchen bench. Don’t forget the glasses! Last of all, it’s always a good idea to make sure the windows are crystal clean as buyers get excited about sunlight streaming into a living room or master bedroom. CHOOSE YOUR OPEN TO VIEW TIMES CAREFULLY During the morning or evening, temperatures may be more comfortable for viewers. On the other hand, if your home doesn’t see a lot of natural light, midday might be the best time. CONSIDER HOME STAGING OPTIONS If you’re not quite sure how you can arrange your space to make it appealing to potential buyers, then you might want to consider a professional staging company. Home staging can come with a price, but if you’re willing to invest, it can be worthwhile. Stylists know what picky home buyers are looking for when they come through your house, so they’ll keep up with the latest trends and help you get set up for success. HIGHLIGHT YOUR INDOOR-OUTDOOR LIVING SPACE During summer home viewings your indooroutdoor space needs to shine. It should be easy for prospective buyers to visualise themselves entertaining friends, or having a drink after work in the spaces. New outdoor furniture, a sunshade, or even a comfy bench under a tree at the end of your garden can make all the difference.
