Brisbane’s Real Estate Boom: A Bright Future Ahead

Brisbane’s property market is buzzing in 2025, and according to local real estate expert Daniel Zhou, we’re just at the beginning of something big.

With over six years of experience in Brisbane’s inner-city market, Danny recently shared his take on the city’s transformation in a conversation with Phillip Blake. Recent reports show that Brisbane City apartments have experienced substantial growth, with values increasing by 18.8% over the past year—a record-breaking jump that signals Brisbane is finally stepping out from the shadows of Sydney and Melbourne.

“Brisbane apartments used to trail behind in value, but that’s no longer true. The city is catching up, and it’s an exciting time to buy or invest.”

What’s Driving Brisbane’s Property Growth?

Daniel says multiple factors drive this boom: low housing supply, strong population growth, and renewed global interest in the city. However, Brisbane’s 2032 Olympic Games announcement lit the fuse.

“I remember the day after the Olympic announcement—my phone didn’t stop ringing. Enquiries poured in from interstate and overseas investors, all eager to get in early.”

Government-backed infrastructure projects are also transforming the city at a record pace. Developments like Cross River RailQueen’s Wharf, and the Brisbane Metro, along with new bridges and green spaces, are reshaping how people live and move around Brisbane. These upgrades began as post-COVID stimulus projects, but the Olympics have supercharged the momentum, propelling Brisbane onto the world stage.

“Brisbane has always been the little sister to Sydney and Melbourne. We used to play it safe, happy being a ‘big country town.’ But this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to be bold—and they’re grabbing it.”

Why It’s a Great Time to Buy (or Sell)

Whether you’re a first-time buyer, an investor, or a seller, the timing has never been better. With strong demand, rising prices, and new developments across the city, Brisbane offers excellent opportunities for capital growth and rental returns.

“The key is matching your strategy with your goals. For high yields, focus on areas with strong rental demand—think university precincts and business hubs. For capital growth, look at suburbs with infrastructure investment and lifestyle perks. Each part of Brisbane has its own story, so buying with intention is important.”

For Sellers: Timing & Targeting Are Everything

If you’re considering selling, now is the time to capitalize—but success depends on smart strategy.

Engaging an experienced agent can help you position your property for the right buyers and capitalize on this booming market.

“It’s not just about listing and waiting. It’s about understanding who your buyer is and tailoring the marketing to them—families want school zones, young professionals want walkability and cafés, downsizers want low maintenance and security.”

Pricing strategy is crucial in a hot market. Overpricing can stall momentum, but the right price can attract multiple offers and even spark a bidding war.

The Bottom Line

Brisbane is on a growth trajectory we haven’t seen before—and this could be the best window in a generation to buy, invest, or sell.
