While the general price growth for the greater Brisbane property market has been steady for most suburbs, there are some which have well and truly over performed.
Some in demand suburbs in the greater Brisbane area chalked up massive median price increases and “earned’’ more than a typical worker during the past year, which according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics is $78,832 per annum.
23 suburbs in greater Brisbane achieved median house price growth of more than the above figures in the past year.
Inner city Teneriffe and its neighbour New Farm topped the list. Teneriffe’s median house price leapt from $1.47 million in 2015 to $1.9 million last year – a difference of $430,000. New Farm also performed well with its median house price jumping by $316,000 to $1.675 million.
Inner city suburbs were not the only ones to achieve such strong growth during the year. In the outer suburbs south of Brisbane, Robertson “earned” well above the average yearly wage last year with its median house price up by $227,000.
