AI is quickly becoming part of the everyday toolkit for real estate professionals.

Used well, AI has the potential to enhance service delivery, improve efficiency and free agents to focus on client relations.

However, the benefits come with important responsibilities and risks.

Our partners at Carter Newell Lawyers take a look at some of these considerations in this article: https://www.reiq.com/articles/agency-practice/artificial-intelligence-in-real-estate

A clerical error in a lease renewal form cost a Hope Island lessor several hundred dollars per week in lost rent and there was nothing the law could do about it.

A recent decision of the QCAT Appeals Tribunal serves as a timely warning to property managers about the consequences of processing errors in lease renewal documentation.

One sleep to go!

Tomorrow night, our REIQ Gold Coast team will swap the comfort of their beds for the back seats of their cars as part of the Live Like Her Challenge, raising awareness and funds for women over 55 experiencing homelessness.

In the real estate profession, we see firsthand the profound impact that housing security has on people's lives. That's why we're so proud of our REIQ Gold Coast team of real estate professionals, supporters and friends, who are leading the pack in donations!

The team have already raised an incredible $8,855 towards their $10,000 goal in support of The Forgotten Women.

With the finish line in sight, there's still time to get behind them. Every donation, no matter the size, helps provide safe, secure housing and support for vulnerable older women.

Let's help Team REIQ Gold Coast reach their goal and show these women they are not forgotten. 👉 Support Team REIQ Gold Coast here: https://goldcoast.livelikeherchallenge.com.au/page/REIQGOLDCOAST

The latest REIQ median sales data is in for the June 2026 quarter!

It shows a modest easing in residential property prices over the quarter, as buyers, sellers and investors adjust to higher borrowing costs and recent taxation changes. While quarterly growth has softened, annual gains remain firmly in double digits and Queensland’s long-term property fundamentals continue to hold strong.
