3/24 Ferguson Avenue, Bongaree QLD 4507
Flood overlay | 2βbed only | quiet complex tradeβoff | $530β$595k range
The property sits in a floodβmoderated area which may limit financing options and push insurance costs above comparable units, effectively reducing net yield by 3β5% for a landlord or adding $800β$1,200 annually to an ownerβoccupierβs holding costs. The quiet complex and lowβmaintenance layout offer stability for a firstβhome buyer or downsizer, but the unit lacks the growth drivers of larger apartments or houses in Bongaree β this is a holdβandβuse property for steady cash flow or longβterm occupancy, not a flip.
Its competitive edge is the subβ$600k entry point in a solid school catchment with reliable NBN, which makes it rare for budgetβconscious families or investors seeking consistent tenant demand from the Bribie Island workforce. The floorβplan and garage appeal to single professionals or couples who value security over space. For a buyer ready to proceed, request a flood history report from council and compare the current $550βpw rental against three recent leases in the same block to confirm net return before exchanging.

Market Insight:
Bongaree’s property market is characterised by exceptional capital growth, with house values surging 97% over five years and a remarkable 17-23% in the past year alone. This rapid price escalation, alongside a median house price approaching $950,000, signals a high-demand, high-growth environment. Demand is evidenced by brisk sales, with houses averaging just 27 days on market, and stronger performance for larger dwellings. While rental yields are moderate, the suburb’s sustained price momentum suggests robust buyer competition, though this growth trajectory introduces potential affordability constraints for future entrants.
