Caboolture

Caboolture is a town located 50km north of the Brisbane CBD.

Once home to many dairy farms and forests, it used to be semi-rural, but years of development have seen it become suburban in nature.

Now, it is generally regarded as the northmost point of the greater Brisbane metropolitan area.

The growth of new, affordable housing has seen Caboolture steadily grow in population. With close proximity to the Sunshine Coast, yet still close enough to Brisbane CBD, it is not surprising that the forests and dairy farms have given way to development.

Median house prices in Caboolture are $345 000 for houses and $205 000 for units.  This affordability makes it an ideal location with close proximity to the Sunshine Coast yet still easy access to Brisbane CBD.

This growth has encouraged businesses to move in. As such, new restaurants, shopping districts and services are regularly springing up.

Why is a building and pest inspection so important for my Caboolture property?

Purchasing a residential or commercial property in the Caboolture is a big investment and as such, you should understand the condition of the property and that you are getting what you pay for.

Building defects can be safety issues or affect the liveability of the property. They may require expensive repairs.

In addition, termites can go unnoticed for years if the house is not checked properly.

You might only find termites when your hand goes through a wall. By then, extensive damage will have been done.

Do not go into your purchase blind, get a full understanding of the condition of the property. This is why a pre-purchase building and pest inspection is so essential.

Having an experienced industry professional assess the property prior to finalising your purchase could save you thousands when buying your home or investment property in Caboolture.
