The data on this website, including in the graphs and calculator, is approximate in nature and should not be relied upon.
Talking to a top local real estate agent is a good first step to determine what you may be required to pay to sell your property and to understand the local property market.
The graph and calculator use data collected by Which Real Estate Agent in 2019, and provides a state-wide average estimation of commission rate. The data presented should only be used as an indication of what you may be required to pay.
Be careful of extra fees that may be charged by a real estate agent. We recommend you properly review the agency agreement and cost schedules, so there are no surprises when you are presented with the final bill.
There is almost always room to negotiate commissions with agents. Do not be afraid to ask for an agent fee structure that favours your situation and ensures the agent does their job.
However, remember that an agent willing to drop their agent fees to rock-bottom are not likely to have your best interests at heart. Make sure you’re not just padding out someone else’s sales statistics - you should spend a little more to make more.

WHAT IS MY HOUSE PRICE ESTIMATE?
There are several variables that can affect property values in Bracken Ridge. To accurately estimate the value of your Bracken Ridge property, these variables need to be taken into account.
One of the most significant, but surprising, contributors to your property price is proximity to loud areas or industry.
Several nearby types of infrastructure may drive your house value estimation down. Public infrastructure such as busy roads or flight paths could generate a lot of noise pollution which may deter some buyers, leading to your property selling at a lower price.
With so many potential factors affecting a property’s price, it’s best to do some research before talking to agents.
Figure out the value of your home, and start your selling journey with some confidence. Get started by requesting a property appraisal from an agent today.

Initially, you should look at the Bracken Ridge property market and see if the conditions are right. Get an idea of how much your property is valued in the present day, starting with an independent property value report.

Bracken Ridge Suburb Overview
Bracken Ridge is a northern suburb of Brisbane, the capital city of Queensland, Australia. Its local government area is the City of Brisbane, in which it has its own ward.
The suburb is located about 20 km north of the Brisbane central business district. The southern border is formed by Telegraph Road, one of the oldest roads in the suburb, and a portion of the western border is formed by the Caboolture railway line. A number of housing estates are located within the suburb, including The Oaks, Enbrook Heights and the most recent development Sungate Estate.
The terrain in the suburb is, as the name suggests, generally hilly. The highest area of the suburb features a park and a reservoir;from this height it is quite easy to see Moreton Bay to the east and the CBD to the south.
The area now known as Bracken Ridge was originally called “Rose Hill”. In the late 19th century, it was predominantly a rural area. Louis Hope was the first European landowner in the area, and he grew sugar cane and other crops. The Brown family and the Ferguson family were also important early landowners in the area. Dairy became an important industry in the area, and continued to be the chief rural industry until the area became more residential. The first school in the area was opened in 1957.
In 1962, Lord Mayor of Brisbane Clem Jones arranged with the Barclay Development Corporation to develop a small community behind the suburb of Sandgate. 1,600 residential allotments were created, and the first homes were completed in 1966. A state high school, a Catholic school were also established, with second primary school established in the late 1970s, followed by the opening of the TAFE college on Norris Rd in 1982.
Bracken Ridge is home to a wide variety of persons on the socio-economic scale. The Majority of residents are professional couples and families. A small number of housing commission homes exist, mostly to the north of Gawain Road. Other areas, such as the estates south of Barbour Road, the homes surrounding the “ridge” and St joseph’s church, the areas on top of the hills, Enbrook Heights Estate and the most recent development “Sungate” Estate are much more affluent. The population of the suburb as a whole was 13,943 on the 2001 census.
The average price for a home in the suburb was $460,000 in 2012. 86% of these homes are owner-occupied or in the process of being purchased.
There are a number of schools and educational institutions in the suburb
Shopping strips are located in Gawain Road and Barrett Street. A more substantial shopping centre is located on the corner of Telegraph Road and Norris Road. There is also now a small shopping centre near the Bracken Ridge Tavern incorporating a Woolworths and a newsagent. There is a pub on the corner of Barrett and Denham Streets, and a sports centre located on Bracken Ridge Road.
Bracken Ridge is also home to Bracken Ridge District Cricket Club based at McPherson Park.
There is also a large number of parks in the suburb, including Enbrook Parkland and the Bill Brown Sports Reserve on Telegraph Road, Bracken Ridge Reservoir, and Stanley Day Park. There are also a number of churches present, including the Catholic, Baptist, and Uniting Church denominations. An Islamic community centre lies just across the border in Bald Hills.
