Brisbane’s housing market continues its impressive run, marking its 26th consecutive month of growth in March 2025. However, recent trends suggest the pace of value increases is moderating, influenced by affordability constraints and shifting market dynamics.
Brisbane home values showed consistent yet slowing growth:
- March 2025: +0.4%
- Quarterly Growth (Q1 2025): +0.9%, adding approximately $8,340 to median dwelling values
Despite the positive trajectory, the current quarterly growth rate is significantly down from the 4.2% experienced a year and a half ago.

This increase in available properties suggests that buyers have more options, contributing to slower price growth.
Brisbane’s rental market remains robust, though rental growth rates are slowing. Despite this moderation, Brisbane continues to experience strong rental demand, placing ongoing pressure on renters.
Brisbane house prices - the longer-term data
Brisbane's property market is expected to maintain moderate growth throughout 2025, driven by:
- Gradual interest rate reductions.
- Improved household savings rates and disposable incomes.
- Ongoing undersupply challenges in the housing sector, driven by elevated construction costs and limited availability of skilled trades.
However, significant price surges are unlikely due to persistent affordability barriers, cautious lending practices, and moderated population growth.
In summary, Brisbane remains resilient, with modest growth forecasted. Buyers and investors are advised to remain mindful of the shifting market dynamics as affordability and supply continue to evolve.
