📊 Brisbane Market Analysis
The Brisbane housing market shows a Price-to-Rent ratio of 28.4, calculated from an average home price of $750,000 against monthly rents of $2,200. A ratio above 18 suggests that renting and investing the savings into a diversified portfolio is likely the sharper financial play. With a $150,000 down payment, the alternative is investing that capital at a 5% annual return — a key factor our calculator models over 30 years.
