Recently the Treasurer Scott Morrison has been calling on state and territory governments to do more to stop house prices ballooning.
The amount households are borrowing from the bank is getting more disproportionate to their pay packet.
In Brisbane
The median weekly income per household in Brisbane is $1,388.
The average house price in Queensland’s capital was $497,000 in June 2016. This was 4.3% higher than the year before.
Prices haven’t risen in Brisbane as steeply as in Sydney and Melbourne, as the average price tag for a home was only $325,000 10 years ago.
So what can $600,000, get you in the Everton Park region.
