The Brisbane market is rising, boosted by its relative affordability, a big infrastructure spend and the prospect of hosting the 2032 Olympics.

Demand from home-buyers and investors, including large numbers of interstate buyers, has resulted in a massive uplift in sales activity – and prices are responding.

At the same time, rental vacancy rates are low in most parts of the city and there is great potential to lift rentals and yields.

On Wednesday 12 May, Hotspotting founder Terry Ryder hosted a free webinar featuring leading Brisbane real estate professional Mark Shorrock of Bluestone Property Management & Sales where they discussed ways for investors to benefit from the rising tide in the Brisbane market.

Shorrock presented case studies showing how investor owners can achieve rental increases of 10% or 15% in a market characterised by high demand and low supply.
