Property prices continue to climb in Queensland - but how will the Sunshine State handle the gathering headwinds?

There’s no denying the resilience of Queensland property in recent years, and prices have continued to rise across virtually all major markets according to the REIQ's median sales data for the March 2026 quarter. But with affordability pressures deepening, consumer sentiment subdued, investor confidence taking a hit and supply still falling short, the question is what comes next.

The REIQ’s latest median sales data explores where the market is still gaining ground, where caution could start to shape the market, and why supply must remain the priority.
