Explanatory notes

  • The multi-unit residential land market throughout Gold Coast City LGA increased moderately in value. Increase in value was mainly driven by limited supply of development land and demand from strong net migration to the region.
  • The commercial property market has remained resilient with the Gold Coast City LGA experiencing near historic low vacancy rates in both the retail and office markets. Market evidence of purely commercial land sales is becoming rare with a continued move towards more mixed-use developments.
  • The industrial land market increased significantly in value due to strong demand and limited industrial land supply.
  • The primary production land market in various sectors within Gold Coast City LGA increased moderately in value. The growth in land value is due to ongoing strong demand for well-located land which provides a sound investment return, and the ever-decreasing availability of prime farming land as urban development encroaches.
  • Englobo development land values increased generally in line with residential site values within each respective locality.
