About the market

The Townsville property market.

Townsville’s residential property landscape is surrounded between hills and the ocean, resulting in limited land availability. Historically, the city has experienced a fluctuation in property values, pairing peaks and troughs, since the 1980s.

Townsville is home to a diverse economy, with key players in the commercial market residing among health care, manufacturing, mining and the trade services sectors. The city’s northern corridor is home to a large business district, which is home to many industrial and retail assets. The city’s port also places Townville as a regional manufacturing and logistics hub.
