Over the last 12 months, first home buyers have claimed a significant share of the market, as low interest rates and incentives have created opportunities for Australians to own their own homes.

In Brisbane, it’s cheaper to buy a house than rent in the city’s outer suburbs including Logan, Bald Hills, Redbank Plains, Redcliffe and Caboolture.

But when it comes to units, opportunities where it’s cheaper to buy than rent are found within a 3km radius of the CBD, including areas such as Brisbane City, Fortitude Valley, Spring Hill, and South Brisbane.
