The Bowen Hills, Fortitude Valley, New Farm and Newstead Lifestyle

Bordered by the Brisbane River, the three suburbs of Fortitude Valley, New Farm and Newstead have a distinct geographical advantage. Over the past few years, the area has been the focus of an intensive Urban Renewal Project, which has transformed the once sleepy suburbs into thriving, eclectic and extremely trendy inner-city locations

The great thing about City Suburb is that there is always something going on there is such a massive range of people. You have a little run down cottage on your left and a million dollar prestige property on your right. Cafes, Restaurants, Bars, Clubs, Pubs, Parks and Shops are all at your finger tips. The Central Baths operated by the Brisbane City Council are the oldest public baths in Queensland. Walking down Brunswick Street, you get a strong sense of the history of New Farm. At one end is the glorious river-side New Farm Park and the Brisbane Powerhouse, a converted power station that is now a premier entertainment venue. At the other end, adjacent to Fortitude Valley, the world’s oldest profession still quietly defines a well-known street corner.. These days, residents love City Suburb for the lifestyle that it provides: restaurants, bars, bookstores, arthouse cinemas and an incomparable Farmer’s Market at the Powerhouse. City Suburb is dominated by tree lined streets, generous Queenslanders and small blocks of Art-Deco flats, leading down to Brisbane’s most iconic park and grown-up playground, New Farm Park. The river’s edge boasts larger homes, while the city-side and eastern edge are now dominated by apartment complexes, catering to people who love a low-maintenance, inner-city lifestyle

Know your borrowing range before you shortlist in Bowen Hills, Fortitude Valley, New Farm and Newstead

Borrowing power depends on each applicant's income, living costs, debts, loan purpose and the lender's policy. Use the full estimator for a clearer range instead of a shortcut that looks like an approval.

  • Compare a modelled range across several bank servicing policies.
  • Adjust income, expenses, debts and your buying plan before you decide what to inspect.
  • Ask a broker to review the result and explain which policy differences matter.

How much can I borrow?

Allow about three minutes. Have your income, regular living expenses and debt repayments handy.
