Welcome to C J’s e-Newsletter
Greetings,
April marks the full arrival of autumn, and with the Easter holiday approaching, many people slow down while still keeping a close eye on property opportunities. It’s a balanced period where lifestyle and planning come together
Real Estate Insights – April 2026
Autumn Market Showing Signs of Moderation
Following a busy March, market activity in April is expected to ease slightly. With interest rates remaining relatively high, some buyers are taking a more cautious approach, leading to a more measured pace across the market. However, genuine buyers remain active and are taking more time to assess their options carefully. Well-presented properties continue to attract attention, although competition may not be as intense as earlier in the season.
Rental Demand Remains Stable
Sydney’s rental market continues to perform steadily, with low vacancy rates across many suburbs. This is a good time for landlords to review rental returns and ensure properties are well maintained.
What’s Happening in Sydney – April 2026
- Easter Long Weekend Activities
Sydney offers a vibrant mix of family-friendly events, outdoor markets, and community celebrations over the Easter break, making it one of the city’s most enjoyable long weekends.
- Sydney Royal Easter Show (2–13 April 2026)
One of Sydney’s most iconic annual events, featuring agricultural shows, entertainment, rides, and family attractions at Sydney Olympic Park.
- ANZAC Day (25 April 2026)
A significant national day of remembrance, with dawn services and commemorative events held across Sydney.
If you’re considering selling, investing, or reviewing your property strategy for 2026, our experienced team at C J Real Estate is here to provide trusted advice and up-to-date local insights.

Wishing you a relaxing Easter and a successful April.
