Abstract

The paper reviews the relationship between mass transit service and property values in Brisbane.

Results indicate a clear preference in terms of observable price premiums for mass transit among attached housing markets, but results in the traditional detached housing market are less clear-cut. Median income housing consumers are another market segment clearly prepared to pay a premium for mass transit access.
