SEQ apartment approvals have risen to a decade high, yet delivery timelines have blown out
  • Median unit prices rose across Brisbane, Gold Coast, and Sunshine Coast.  
  • Approvals are up 86%, but delivery timelines have blown out 50%, so the pipeline is growing faster than stock is reaching the market.  
  • Only 3% of new apartments surveyed in Q1 2026 were priced below $1M; new supply is not addressing the affordability gap.
