With 11,103 residents, Regents Park is one of Queensland's more populous suburbs — roughly 2.0× the state median of 5,474 — giving it a deep buyer and tenant pool that typically supports higher transaction volumes and shorter average days on market. Households here earn $96,928/year on average — 7% above the QLD suburb median of $90,298 — a modest premium that supports resilient owner-occupier demand. Median weekly rent of $380 equates to $1,647/month — about 101% of the median mortgage repayment of $1,625/month — meaning rental income covers most of a typical owner's repayment and this is a genuine cash-flow suburb before tax benefits. 23 km from Brisbane places Regents Park in the middle commuter belt, close enough for daily trips by car or rail but at a materially lower price point than inner suburbs. Separate houses make up 95% of dwellings — 18 percentage points above the Queensland median of 77% — pointing to a family-oriented, land-rich market where value is concentrated in the underlying block.
This suburb suits long-term investors looking for a balance of rental yield and capital growth. Schools and transport underpin family demand. Local rents consume roughly 20% of household income — a useful sanity check on tenant affordability.
