Property boom: Investors spark recovery nationwide
Nationwide, property lending is still below pre-COVID levels — but Queensland is leading the recovery.
In the year to June 2025, investor loans rose 16% to over 47,000, while owner-occupier loans climbed 7% to more than 71,000.
Even more telling — average loan sizes jumped: owner-occupiers up 13% to $636,000, investors up 11% to $616,000, the highest in the eastern states.
For property investors, this isn’t hype — it’s proof that Queensland remains Australia’s strongest long-term growth market. management
