Comparing the Current Velocity of the Albany Creek and Bridgeman Downs Property Market
Albany Creek and Bridgeman Downs sit side by side on Moreton Bay’s southside and Brisbane’s northside, yet they tell distinctly different stories about where the market is heading.
Albany Creek is the higher-volume, more accessible of the two — 296 annual sales across a broad mix of houses, townhouses and units, with a 90-day median of $1,235,000 that sits 13.6% above the 12-month benchmark. It is a market in active upward movement, with 3-bedroom and 5-bedroom houses both recording double-digit gains against the annual median. With a top-5 agent share of just 46.3%, it is also one of the most competitive and open markets on the northside — vendors have genuine choice.
Bridgeman Downs is a different proposition entirely. Tighter, more premium, and more concentrated — 180 annual sales, a 90-day median of $1,655,000, and a market defined almost entirely by 4 and 5-bedroom family homes in the $1.5M–$2M corridor. The 4-bedroom house segment is its standout story, running +12.7% above the annual median. Two agents — Sonya Treloar and Ben Ball — together account for nearly half of all transactions, making agent selection here one of the most consequential decisions a vendor can make.
Between them, the two suburbs transacted over $135 million worth of residential property in just 90 days — a figure that underscores the enduring strength of Brisbane’s northside as a destination for families, upsizers and long-term investors alike.
