A single suburb, as the publisher names it.
Completions over the same period were equivalent to 81% of commencements, for Queensland. These figures compare pipeline flows and do not track individual approved dwellings through construction.
Achieved rents moved +1.5% over the year, against +7.4% for the middle suburb in Queensland.
Each of these is a separate reading with its own rule and its own figures, set out under Housing Balance below. There is deliberately no single score: one number would hide which of them was doing the work.
At $660 a week, Springfield is higher than 56% of the 563 QLD suburbs we hold.
Rents there are up 1.5% over the past year, slower than Queensland as a whole (up 8.3%).
Based on 80 new leases. Enough to be meaningful, but a single unusual quarter will move it.
The most common new lease there was a four-bedroom house, at $720 a week across 32 of them.
Median weekly rent of bonds lodged in the quarter, which is what tenants actually started paying rather than what was advertised. Every point is a figure the publisher published; nothing between them is filled in.

Queensland publishes no openly licensed sale prices at this level, so there is no yield here rather than one built on a value we would have to model.
Only New South Wales publishes rent quartiles, so the spread of rents within this market is not shown.

The same quarter, split the way Queensland splits it. The figure at the top of this page blends all of these together, so it describes none of them exactly. A blank cell means the publisher reported nothing for that combination here — usually because there were too few new leases to publish.
| Size | Houses | Townhouses |
|---|---|---|
| 3 bedrooms | $63017 new leases | $62015 new leases |
| 4 bedrooms | $72032 new leases | Not published |
The Australian Bureau of Statistics publishes population and dwelling approvals by council area, not by suburb, and a suburb is not one of its statistical areas. Rather than report a neighbouring boundary’s figures as this market’s, neither is shown here.
Where housing demand is coming from, how quickly supply is being delivered, and how rents are responding. Six readings, each with the figures behind it and the rule that turned those figures into a word. None of them says a market is short of housing: that needs household formation, which APRIQ does not hold, and is not estimated here.
No population or migration evidence can be mapped to Springfield. No measurement and no defensible mapping for a suburb. Broader evidence for Queensland is shown where it exists.
Not enough evidence
How fast the population is growing, against the national rate.
no population growth rate for this market
Not enough evidence
Which component moved the population most over the latest year the ABS splits it.
the ABS publishes no component split for this market
Not enough evidence
Whether dwelling approvals are running above or below the year before.
not enough approval history to compare two years
Moderate
How much housing is being finished, against how much is being started.
| Dwellings completed, Queensland | 8,035 | March quarter 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Dwellings started, Queensland | 9,885 | March quarter 2026 |
| Completions as a share of commencements | 81% | March quarter 2026 |
Strong at or above 95% of commencements, weak below 80%, moderate in between, over the same twelve months. Completions during the period compared with commencements during the period — these figures compare pipeline flows and do not track individual approved dwellings through construction.
Low
How fast achieved rents are rising, against the rest of the state.
| Rent change over a year, Springfield | +1.5% | June quarter 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Rent change over a year, the middle suburb in Queensland | +7.4% | June quarter 2026 |
High when rents rose at least one percentage point faster than the state, low when at least a point slower, moderate in between. Compared against the state rather than the nation because each bond authority defines its own series: changes compare, levels do not.
Not enough evidence
How much of this market's picture was measured for this market.
no demand evidence can be mapped to this market
Four separate readings, each with the figures behind it and the rule that turned those figures into words. There is deliberately no single score: one number would hide which of these was doing the work, and a market with strong rental evidence and no population figure would score as though it had both. Every signal describes what has been measured — none of them is advice, and none says what will happen next.
Rising more slowly than most of Queensland
How rents here moved over a year, against the typical suburb in Queensland.
| Rent change over a year here | +1.5% | June quarter 2026 against a year earlier |
|---|---|---|
| The middle suburb in Queensland | +7.4% | June quarter 2026 against a year earlier |
| Difference | −5.9 percentage points | June quarter 2026 against a year earlier |
| Markets in the comparison | 563 | June quarter 2026 against a year earlier |
The difference between this market’s one-year rent change and the middle change across every suburb the same publisher reports, in percentage points: 3 or more above is well above, 1 above is above, within 1 either way is in line. Changes are compared within one state because each bond authority defines its own series — movement may be compared between them, the rent itself may not.
Not enough evidence
How fast the population here is changing, against how fast Australia is changing.
No population estimate is published for this market at a geography the ABS uses.
Not enough evidence
How many dwellings this market approved over twelve months for every thousand residents, against the national rate. Approvals are permission to build, not completed dwellings.
Dwelling approvals are published by council area, and this market is not one.
Adequate
How much weight the figures on this page can carry.
| New leases behind the current figure | 80 | June quarter 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| Quarters of history | 12 | to June quarter 2026 |
| How current | The latest quarter published anywhere | June quarter 2026 |
| Origin | As the publisher published it | June quarter 2026 |
| Knowability | Dated by the publisher’s own release timing | June quarter 2026 |
Strong needs 200 or more new leases behind the current figure, the most recent quarter published anywhere, and eight or more quarters of history. Adequate needs 50 leases and no more than one quarter behind. A withheld count cannot earn better than thin, because a suppressed number is unknown rather than small.
The latest figures here are for June quarter 2026, which ended 30 June 2026. The next is September quarter 2026, ending 30 September 2026; it appears here once the publisher releases it, and we do not predict that date.
The rent figures here are published by Residential Tenancies Authority and used under an open licence. Any other figure on this page names its own publisher on the line it appears on. Every rent figure is either as published or arithmetic on figures as published. APRIQ models and estimates nothing: where a figure is a publisher’s own estimate — an estimated resident population is one — it is called an estimate where it is shown. Growth is measured between named quarters, never by counting back rows, because an area is published only when it clears the publisher’s reporting threshold. This page exists because Springfield has 80 bonds behind its current figure and 12 quarters of history; markets with less than that get no page rather than a thin one. Method, sources and licences.
