The coronavirus panic spreading through financial markets doesn’t appear to have infected the rarified air of Noosa Heads’ absolute beachfront apartments.

In fact, the man whose firm just smashed a sales record for the trendy strip by a cool few million dollars thinks plummeting shares could be adding to demand.

A deep-pocketed buyer last week dropped $14 million on a 242-square-metre penthouse just a few steps from astounding Main Beach: 8 Noosa Court on exclusive Hastings Street.

Tom Offermann, principal of the eponymous firm whose agents Eric Seetoo and Nick Hunter made the sale, said the three-bedroom jewel with a study originally sold for $2.35 million off the plan in 1997 and just $5.5 million six years later.
