June Quarter 2009 House Prices

Queensland’s residential property market has shown its staying power over the June quarter with increasing sales and median house price growth in many areas.

After an uncertain year, the latest Real Estate Institute of Queensland (REIQ) median sales data shows a return to form for the State’s property market.

“We are cautiously optimistic that the worst is behind us. These really are solid results in what have been very weak economic conditions,” REIQ managing director Dan Molloy said.

The REIQ June quarter median house prices show sales volumes up significantly in many areas.

Compared to the March quarter, preliminary sales numbers are up about 28 per cent in Brisbane; about 17 per cent on the Gold and Sunshine coasts; 14.5 per cent in Rockhampton; 20 per cent in Townville; and about 18 per cent in Cairns.

Browse some of Brisbane's June quarter median house prices by suburban area: inner city, north, south, east and west.
