“Its affordability I believe will continue to attract record levels of interstate migration,” he told The Sunday Mail ahead of today’s start of the two-day premier real estate conference AREC.
The founder of McGrath Estate Agents said there was a lot more to come over the next few years given SEQ offered “so many options for asset rich, cash poor southerners”.
He labelled Brisbane “the best market in Australia currently for short to medium term growth”.
“The value gap between
Brisbane and the other big east coast capitals is as large as I’ve seen it in many years.”
“When you factor in the key drivers for future growth — liveability, affordability, scale, future economic prospects — they all suggest
Brisbane is a market to invest in.”
“Toowoomba is the perfect and affordable treechange. Brisbane offers big city opportunities while
Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast are ideal seachangers.
“This area has seen some early stage growth but nowhere near the capital appreciation that Sydney and Melbourne have seen.” Source:
