The Ipswich suburb of Springfield Lakes has been crowned as the most popular Queensland suburb for house sales, recording the highest number of house sales last quarter.
That’s according to data from prop tech firm InfoTrack which has released its latest Property Market Update, listing the top performing suburbs from 1 April to 30 June this year.
InfoTrack’s Head of Property Australia, Lee Bailie, said Springfield Lakes claimed top spot after coming in second to Caboolture last quarter.
“Springfield Lakes is a suburb that continues to gain traction due to its blend of lifestyle, community, and affordability,” Mr Bailie said.
“Nearby Redbank Plains also made the top 10, in at number four. Both suburbs offer their own unique character but are also well within commuting distance to central Ipswich and the Brisbane CBD.”
For Brisbane, inner-city demand strongly influenced residential unit sales, with Newstead appearing back in the top 10 for the first time since Q2 2024.
“The inclusion of Newstead, alongside sustained interest in neighbouring suburbs Fortitude Valley and Brisbane City, reflects strong demand from buyers seeking an inner-city apartment lifestyle,” Mr Bailie said.
“Newstead, a highly sought-after suburb just three kilometres from the Brisbane CBD, has several significant strata projects underway which are attracting more buyers to the area who seek the benefits of vibrant inner-city living.”
On the Gold Coast, Surfers Paradise reclaimed the number one location for residential unit sales last quarter.
“Surfers Paradise clawed back into top position, after falling to second place for the previous two quarters, behind Southport and Brisbane City,” Mr Bailie said.
“Half the top 10 suburbs for apartment sales are now in the Gold Coast, with Burleigh Heads making the list for the first time since Q1 2023, in at eighth spot.”
Townsville’s Kirwan is the only suburb on either list located outside southeast Queensland.
The data found houses have continued to dominate in Queensland, taking 60.96 per cent (%) of the market last quarter. This represents a steady increase of 0.5% quarter-on-quarter.
