Brisbane Property Market Update

The latest insights from the Domain House Price Report March 2026 highlight continued strength across Australia’s property market — with Brisbane emerging as one of the country’s standout performers.

Brisbane’s property market continues to outperform, driven by strong population growth, major infrastructure investment, and a limited supply of new housing.

House prices rose 4.2% over the March quarter, reaching approximately $1.21 million, while unit prices increased 4.9% to a median of around $800,500.

This sustained growth reflects rising demand for well-located, lifestyle-driven apartments — particularly within inner-city precincts such as Woolloongabba and East Brisbane.

As house prices continue to climb, more buyers are turning to apartments as a smarter, more accessible alternative.

Across Australia, unit markets are gaining momentum as affordability pressures shift demand toward oversized, high-quality apartments in connected, walkable locations, as well as lifestyle-led developments with premium amenity.

This trend is especially evident in Brisbane, where units are forecast to outperform houses in key markets due to their relative value and liveability.

A key driver of this growth is the ongoing imbalance between supply and demand. Limited new apartment development, rising construction costs, and strong interstate migration continue to place upward pressure on prices.

As a result, Brisbane remains one of Australia’s most resilient and high-performing property markets.

For both owner-occupiers and investors, the current conditions present a compelling opportunity — to enter the market ahead of further growth, secure premium apartments in high-demand locations, and capitalise on infrastructure-led transformation, including Cross River Rail and the upcoming Brisbane 2032 Olympic precinct.
