Brisbane CBD Property Market
Brisbane CBD is the heart of Queensland’s capital city, offering a mix of residential apartments, heritage-converted lofts, and modern high-rise living. The property market here caters primarily to owner-occupiers seeking city convenience and investors attracted to strong rental demand from professionals working in the CBD.
The central business district is bounded by the Brisbane River to the east and south, with Queen Street Mall serving as the retail and commercial core. Landmarks such as Brisbane City Hall, Central Station, and the City Botanic Gardens anchor different precincts within the CBD. The Cross River Rail project continues to enhance connectivity, making inner-city living even more accessible.
Apartment living dominates the Brisbane CBD market. Modern towers offer amenities including pools, gyms, and concierge services, while older buildings provide character and often larger floor plans. Buyers should be aware that lender policies vary for high-density properties, and a broker can identify which lenders favour Brisbane CBD apartments.

Why Use a Broker Introduction Service?
As a broker introduction service, we do not charge you a fee. We connect you with brokers from our network who have access to products from Commonwealth Bank, ANZ, Westpac, NAB, Macquarie Bank, Suncorp, Bank of Queensland, and dozens of specialist lenders. Your matched broker handles the entire application process, from pre-approval through to settlement.
Under the broker introduction model, the broker receives a commission from the lender upon settlement. This means you receive professional lending advice and access to a broad panel of lenders without paying out of pocket. Your broker holds an Australian Credit Licence (ACL) and is bound by responsible lending obligations under the National Consumer Credit Protection Act.

Most lenders require a minimum 5% deposit, though a 20% deposit avoids Lenders Mortgage Insurance (LMI). First home buyers in Queensland may be eligible for the First Home Owner Grant and stamp duty concessions. Your broker will outline the options based on your circumstances.
Can a broker help me refinance my Brisbane CBD mortgage?
Absolutely. Many Brisbane CBD apartment owners refinance to access better interest rates, consolidate debt, or release equity. A broker compares products across 100+ lenders to find a suitable option for your situation.
