📈 Queensland Leads the Nation in Property Growth – and Ipswich is the Star!

It’s official – Queensland’s property market is on fire, and Re Realty is right at the heart of it! According to a Courier Mail article published on April 5, 2025, home prices across the Sunshine State have surged a whopping 14%, doubling the national average of just under 7%.

At Re Realty, we’ve seen it firsthand – particularly in Ipswich, which is emerging as a major growth hub within Greater Brisbane. Our very own Roger Eveans was featured in the article, offering expert insights into why buyers and investors are flocking to the region.

So, what’s driving this boom in Ipswich?

  • 🏘️ Affordability: Compared to Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and Sunshine Coast, Ipswich offers real value – and buyers are taking notice.
  • 📈 Rental Yields: With rents continuing to rise and demand for homes skyrocketing, the rental market is pushing more investors to secure properties in the region.
  • 🧱 Unit Growth: Suburbs like Redbank, Goodna, and North Booval are experiencing massive unit price growth – with Redbank units alone jumping 32.5% year-on-year!
  • 💡 Smart Buying Strategies: First-home buyers are keen on staying under the $700,000 threshold to avoid stamp duty and lenders mortgage insurance – and Ipswich delivers options that make this possible.

One standout story from Roger involved a property at 7 Yarra Ct, Karalee, which sold for $1 million in one weekend – a staggering jump from the $650,000 it sold for less than two years ago.

And there’s more to come! We currently have flood-free blocks of land available in Bundamba for just $310,000 – perfect for first-home buyers looking to build and break free from the rental cycle.

In Roger’s words:

“We have a lot of people trying to get out of the rental cycle and into home ownership and this is a good, safe way to start.”

At Re Realty, we’re not just watching the market – we’re helping shape it. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, seasoned investor, or simply curious about what your property is worth, we’re here to help you make the most of this unprecedented growth period.
