Population data reveals movement between Victoria and Queensland's property markets

Today's Australian Bureau of Statistics population data brings an interesting shift: for the first time since COVID, Victoria recorded a net inflow of interstate migration on an annual basis. It's small, just 82 people, but it landed in the same quarter that Queensland's interstate migration hit its lowest level since 2015.

Oliver Hume Chief Economist Matthew Bell says affordability is likely playing a role, with SEQ's vacant land prices now sitting more than $100,000 above Greater Melbourne's, and Brisbane's median dwelling value having overtaken Melbourne's in recent years.

Nationally, population growth of 1.4% still outpaces the 0.6% average across other advanced economies, keeping pressure on housing demand even through the current downturn.

Read Matthew Bell's full breakdown on what this means for property markets.

National developer HB Land will launch South Ripley this month, building on the success of two existing communities in the Ripley growth corridor and extending its investment in one of South East Queensland's fastest-growing residential areas.

Located close to Providence town centre, the project will deliver 372 homesites across eight stages, with a range of lot sizes and housing options for first home buyers, families, upgraders and other owner-occupiers.

General Manager Dan Ross said: "Bellevue selling out ahead of schedule and Sunnyvue recording 76 sales since April show the confidence buyers have in HB Land's projects in this corridor."

Most uncertain quarter for residential property in over two years.

That's how Chief Economist Matthew Bell described the June quarter. Rate hikes. Middle East conflict. Federal Budget changes to investor taxation. All in the same three months.

Our CEO Julian Coppini put it plainly: "The market is absorbing rate and budget shocks, not entering a fundamental downturn."

The Oliver Hume Land Index & Residential Outlook scores every state out of 10 on land sales, price growth and market conditions.

Just two of the five major markets are now operating above long-term trend, down from four as recently as December. SEQ was the only one to record an increase in its Index score this quarter.

The June Quarter edition is out now.

Melbourne's land sales fell around 10% in the June quarter, and prices have barely moved in nearly two years, now sitting more than $140,000 below South East Queensland and close to parity with Adelaide. Our Quarterly Market Insights Report - June 2026 breaks down why, and what it means for the second half of 2026.

The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has held the cash rate at 4.35%, in line with the ~96% probability markets had priced in.

June inflation coming in below expectations gave the Reserve Bank of Australia room to pause, even with household spending holding up and unemployment still low.

Our Chief Economist Matthew Bell believes we may be at the peak of the rate cycle, with markets not expecting cuts before the second half of 2027.
On the ground: auction clearance rates hit an 11-week high this weekend and demand continues to outpace supply, even as the September quarter outlook remains soft.

Full breakdown from Matt below, as well as RBA's official statement.

The Q2/2026 Quarterly Market Insights Report is now live.

Residential markets are slowing. Following the three RBA rate increases and the Federal Budget changes affecting investors, a return to price growth likely won’t occur to later in 2027. Our analysis looks at the market fundamentals, and what we’re keeping a close eye on.
