Gladstone Regional Council

Overview of 2026 land valuation

  • 28,865 properties revalued, with a total value of $6,290,263,948.
  • 26% increase since last revaluation issued in 2023.

Property market changes within the Gladstone Regional LGA are being driven by:

  • major infrastructure projects including the Fitzroy to Gladstone Pipeline and Gladstone Hospital upgrade
  • investment from interstate and southern buyers
  • housing development and supply chain issues
  • strong beef and rural commodity prices, historically low interest rates and improved seasonal conditions
  • industrial, resource and energy projects in the region. Positive drivers include the announcements of new industry including the $500 million Aldoga Solar Farm. However, negative sentiment surrounds several major projects having recently been shelved or completely abandoned including the $14 billion Central Queensland Hydrogen Project (CQH2), $500 million Oceania Biofuels and Rio Tinto cutting its workforce as it moves to scale back operations at Queensland’s Yarwun Alumina Refinery.
