CORELOGIC’S Home Value Index (HVI) ended 2024 on a slight decline nationally, down -0.1 per cent in December, marking the end of a resilient growth period from February 2023 to October 2024.
Despite this, Queensland’s property market remained strong, with Brisbane values rising 11.2 per cent over the year and regional Queensland up 10.5 per cent.
CoreLogic’s research director, Tim Lawless, said the national decline reflects affordability constraints and increasing supply.
“This result represents the housing market catching up with the reality of market dynamics,” he said.
Brisbane remained a standout capital city for annual growth, more so in the first half of 2024 when national values rose 4.1 per cent. Increased demand for affordable housing drove growth in lower-priced markets, with Queensland among the top performers in regional and capital city growth, even as affordability pressures grew nationwide.

Changes for property 2025
New Professional Standards and Legislative law
By Reece Osborne Glasshouse Property Sales
IN welcome news for property sellers and buyers in Queensland, significant changes are coming to real estate practices. From 6th June 2025, real estate professionals will be required to complete annual mandatory Continuing Professional Development (CPD) to maintain their licenses. This initiative is supported by an advisory panel led by the Office of Fair Trading, with input from industry, community, and training representatives, ensuring that CPD sessions remain relevant and effective.
Additionally, from 1st August 2025, a mandatory seller disclosure regime will take effect for both residential and commercial property transactions. Sellers must provide a signed
disclosure statement and prescribed certificates before the signing of a contract. This new requirement aims to enhance transparency and accountability, reducing disputes and protecting buyers. Importantly, failing to meet these obligations could risk the termination
to be aware of their responsibilities.
If you’re planning to sell before these standards come into effect, it’s reassuring to know that the Real Estate Institute of Queensland (REIQ) has required its members to undertake CPD since 2005. A quick search through the REIQ Find an Agent portal can help you identify agents already committed to upholding high professional standards and prioritising client interests. These changes represent a positive step forward for the real estate industry, ensuring greater professionalism and confidence in property transactions. If you’d like to discuss how these developments might impact your property sale, contact Reece Osborne –Glasshouse Property Sales 0447 177 230.
REIQ welcomes new bill
expressed strong support for a Bill before Parliament today that aims to abolish stamp duty on new builds and land for eligible first home buyers starting January 1, 2025.
REIQ Acting CEO, Kat Beavon, described the measure as a crucial step in reducing financial barriers and helping more Queenslanders achieve home ownership.
“With Queensland’s home ownership rate at 63.5%, the lowest of any state in the nation, this is a welcome measure to help more people achieve the Great Australian Dream,” Ms Beavon said.
buyers in Queensland face, including a population growth rate of 2.3%—above the national average of 2.1%. “Eliminating stamp duty for first home buyers purchasing new builds eases upfront cost burdens,” she said.
“Coupled with the ability to rent out rooms within the first homes, these are practical steps to remove financial hurdles.”
While supportive of the Bill, Ms Beavon called for broader reform, advocating for the abolition of stamp duty across all property transactions in favor of a broad-based land tax.
“Stamp duty is one of the
Queenslanders,” she said. “It imposes significant upfront costs, discouraging housing turnover and delaying entry onto the property ladder.” Ms Beavon also noted that reforming stamp duty would increase market efficiency and improve housing access.
She urged the Queensland Government to leverage recent Federal support for stamp duty reform to negotiate a better GST outcome and funding incentives. “This is an opportunity for Queensland to lead the way in tackling one of the biggest hurdles to home ownership,” she said.
