Property Market Round-Up June 2026

Queensland’s property market continues to make headlines, with strong growth across the state, predictions of further price increases in Brisbane, ongoing construction challenges, and growing optimism around future interest rate cuts. Here is a snapshot of some of the biggest property stories from June and what they could mean for buyers, sellers and investors.

RBA Holds Interest Rates Steady in June

The Reserve Bank of Australia has left the official cash rate unchanged at 4.35% in its June 2026 meeting, providing some welcome stability for homeowners, buyers and investors after several rate increases earlier this year.

While many Australians were hoping for a rate cut, the RBA has indicated that inflation remains above its target range and further increases have not been completely ruled out. However, the decision to pause gives borrowers greater certainty and may help improve confidence among buyers who have been waiting for clearer economic signals.

For the property market, stable interest rates often encourage more buyer activity, particularly when combined with Queensland’s ongoing population growth and housing supply shortages.

Queensland’s Property Boom Reaches Almost Every Suburb

Queensland’s property market has achieved a remarkable milestone, with reports showing that approximately 99% of suburbs have recorded growth over the past year. Population growth, interstate migration, housing shortages and strong buyer demand continue to drive prices higher across much of the state.

For property owners, this widespread growth highlights the strength of the Queensland market, while buyers continue to face increasing competition for quality homes.

Brisbane Home Prices Expected to Keep Rising

While growth may be moderating compared to the rapid gains of recent years, property experts are forecasting that Brisbane home values will continue to increase throughout 2026.

Limited housing supply, continued population growth and strong demand are expected to support further price growth, although at a more sustainable pace than previously experienced.

For homeowners considering selling, current market conditions continue to favour well-presented properties that are priced appropriately from day one.

Construction Industry Pressures Continue to Impact Housing Supply

Queensland’s booming infrastructure and development pipeline is creating increased demand for builders and trades, placing further pressure on housing supply and construction costs.

Industry experts warn that ongoing labour shortages could continue affecting the delivery of new housing, which may contribute to supply constraints and support property values in established residential areas.

For buyers waiting for a large increase in housing supply, these challenges suggest relief may still be some time away.

Major Banks Forecast Interest Rate Cuts

Some of Australia’s major banks are now forecasting future interest rate cuts, potentially providing relief for mortgage holders and improving borrowing capacity for buyers.

While forecasts can change depending on economic conditions, lower interest rates generally increase buyer confidence and can place upward pressure on property prices by improving affordability and borrowing power.

Both buyers and sellers will be closely watching future Reserve Bank decisions over the coming months.

What Does This Mean for Moreton Bay Property Owners?

The common theme across these stories is clear: Queensland continues to experience strong demand, constrained housing supply and positive long-term growth drivers.

While buyers remain cautious due to affordability pressures, quality properties continue attracting significant interest. For homeowners considering selling, current market conditions continue to present opportunities, particularly for properties that are marketed strategically and positioned correctly from the outset.

As always, every property and suburb performs differently, so understanding your local market remains critical when making real estate decisions.
