Taylors Beach ^{QLD 4850}

Taylors Beach's house market is moving lower: the median sale price reached $350,000, roughly 14% below where it sat a year earlier. That said, only eight sales settled in the quarter, so the median is a noisy signal — treat it as a direction rather than a level.

Houses in Taylors Beach are currently listed at around $569,000 on average. Based on 5 houses listed in the past six months.

5 of the suburb's 158 dwellings (3.2%) were listed for sale in the last 6 months.

The three add up to the change above. These are council-wide figures from the ABS, not figures for this locality alone — this locality's own population is in the census section above.

Households face an average residential rates bill of $1,516 a year through Hinchinbrook based on 2025 figures.

In the year to August 2026, 23 new dwellings were approved across Hinchinbrook. That mix is 21 houses and 2 units. Approvals are down 85.7% on the same period a year earlier.

Elevation is the ground at the locality centre, from Geoscience Australia's National Digital Elevation Model. Approximate — it reads high in dense built-up areas. It is a measure of height above sea level and not an indicator of flood risk, which depends on height above nearby waterways.

$30,000 for new homes priced up to $750,000.

$30,000 for contracts signed on or after 20 November 2023, with no end date. IT DID NOT REVERT TO $15,000: the tier was due to end 30 June 2026 and the 2026-27 Queensland Budget (23 June 2026) continued it for contracts signed from 1 July 2026. This file carried a "due to revert" note until 2026-09-18 — it was never true, and a note predicting a change is not the same as a change. Cap is "less than $750,000" including land and contract variations — less than, not up to. New homes only: "There are no home owner grants for established homes."
