Queensland's lending landscape
South-east Queensland carries most volume, while Townsville, Cairns and Mackay have resource and tourism-linked markets that lenders assess differently. Property-backed finance Queensland borrowers seek often involves coastal apartments, development sites and rural-residential land.
Land is registered through Titles Queensland, and transfer duty is administered by Queensland Revenue Office. Check the Queensland stamp duty calculator.
