How is this calculated?

We score every suburb 0–100 against eight benchmarks a working buyer's agent watches: capital growth, rental yield, vacancy, listings trend, population growth, income growth, budget headroom, and the construction pipeline within reach.

The composite is a weighted average. The Top Picks above re-rank under a Growth-tilted, Yield-tilted, and Balanced scheme so each investor profile gets a single recommendation.

How infrastructure changes your results

Infrastructure is the largest medium-term driver of suburb-level house prices in Australia. Every project below is mapped to a location, value, and stage — and counted against any suburb inside its impact radius.

Flip Market mode in the customizer to double the construction-pipeline weighting and see which suburbs climb the ranking. The $31.1B QLD pipeline below is what drives that effect.

What this means for prices

Expect demand uplift over the next 3–5 years as rail and connectivity projects open up new commuter catchments.
