16 Brisbane suburbs that are cheaper now, than 5 years ago
There are some Brisbane suburbs where price growth was particularly exceptional.
For example, Sunshine Beach in Noosa saw a whopping 191.67% increase in median prices over the past 5 years – the highest of any suburb across the country – to a new $3.5 million median. Sunrise Beach, also in Noosa, also had an impressive 138.1% increase to $1.75 million, from just $735,000 in 2017. But… not every suburb follows the same trend.
