In line with other locations, the real estate on South Stradbroke Island took a hit during the Global Financial Crisis of 2008, bottoming out in mid-2011. Values on South Straddie continue to remain fairly level. The Banking sector made investment difficult with higher than usual loan to valuation ratios. Despite this, people continue to invest. During the spectacular value rises of 2002 to 2007 South Straddie was initially slow to get going, but once it did, it also saw very respectable capital appreciation. Very tightly held, Currigee is a lifestyle, as much as an investment.
