The median apartment value in Brisbane is now $468,393. At the start of 2021, it was just over $390,000.
Recent figures from PRD Research suggest price growth will continue. PRD calculate the the inner median unit price sits at $530,000. The middle is $467,000. The outer median sits at $397,000.

“There is a revival in the unit market after a period of price discounting in mid-2020.”
Mosaic Property Founder and Managing Director Brook Monahan recently told Urban that he believes Brisbane apartment market has the most potential for growth in Queensland.
“There’s just not enough high quality built form for owner occupiers wanting bigger units, and world class amenity, in the five kilometre ring around Brisbane,” Monahan said, suggesting there’s been a chronic undersupply for that type of buyer since around 2018.
“That issue is getting worse, not better, with the amount of people still moving to Brisbane,” Monahan added.
