The sale of apartment 35 ‘Ivy on Picnic Point’, Maroochydore, is yet another example of the strength and continued demand from the owner occupier market.

With Melissa Anderson and Damien Said from C21 on Duporth at the helm, the three-bedroom penthouse with river views drew a healthy crowd for 4pm on a Thursday.
