Median Prices & Demand:
Median house prices vary widely across high-growth suburbs, reflecting differing affordability and buyer demand. Inner/middle-ring suburbs such as Dutton Park (approx. $1.38M) and Tennyson (approx. $1.20M) command higher prices due to their proximity to the CBD, river, and amenities. In contrast, growth suburbs further out such as Chermside (approx. $945K) and Capalaba (approx. $870K) remain more affordable compared to the city’s average. Unit prices are generally lower—Chermside units average around ~$608K and Capalaba around ~$580K—enhancing affordability for first-home buyers and investors. For comprehensive and up-to-date median price trends, subscribe here.

Affordability & Buyer Demand:
Relative affordability in certain growth corridors continues to attract buyers. Brisbane’s housing remains competitively priced compared to other capital cities, drawing interstate migrants and investors alike. Suburbs like Chermside and Capalaba, with prices below Brisbane’s median, see rapid turnover (with properties on market for only a short time). Meanwhile, prestigious pockets (such as riverside Tennyson) offer unique appeal despite smaller sales volumes. For full details on affordability and buyer demand metrics, please subscribe here.
