Brisbane Property Podcast

• Brisbane’s outperformance: Why Brisbane continues to better Sydney and Melbourne on headline dwelling growth, and how unit markets here are the national stand-out.
• Segment shifts: The lowest quartile led September quarter gains in Brisbane (+3.7% q/q), ahead of the middle (+3.2%) and top end (+2.6%).
• Supply vs demand reality: Listings are thin while buyer enquiry is strong - we explain why that gap is pushing prices up and where it’s most intense.
• Houses vs units: Houses rose +1.1% in September (Brisbane among the top three capitals for the month); units jumped +1.7% (up from +1.3% in August), +4.7% for the quarter and +12.4% year-on-year.
• Rental market pulse: Vacancy edged to 1.0% (from 0.9%), but rents re-accelerated — houses +5.4% YoY, units +6.4% YoY. Gross yields: houses 3.4% (steady), units 4.3% (down slightly from 4.4%).
• Prestige snapshot: Riverfront and blue-chip suburbs remain buoyant as limited premium stock meets downsizer and interstate demand.
• Practical buyer takeaways: Why trying to “wait it out” can be costly (at a $1m price point, current monthly growth equates to ~$12k), and how local intel helps avoid bidding frenzies and target value.
