Hum. All makes sense, seems like a good analysis. Although I question your objectivity since you're from QLD!
Actually no. From Melbourne. Lived, worked there, etc and want to go back to Melbourne from Brisbane...

The very last point in my post is the real kicker. The past is the past...it's really about future intent. Perth is happy to compete with the likes of brisbane and Adelaide whereas brisbane wants to compete with the likes of Melbourne. See the difference in intent.
Just because the intent is there it doesn't mean that'll improve things. Brisbane reminds me of Benny Barba in the footy. At one point competed with the best and was one of the best, but he dropped off while others got better. He's one of the worst players around atm although he has the intent to be good enough to be one the best again, it aint happening anytime soon haha (I love my footy and it's Friday).. Brisbane may have the intent but that doesn't mean they'll be the third best economy again. Their economy sucks. They were in recession for two quarters of last year..Perth without mining will most likely stay ahead of Brisbane

I think JPD1's point is also that Brisbane are trying to compete with Sydney and Melbourne whereas Perth is trying to compete with Brisbane. Whether Brisbane fails or not, the ambition is there.

Good time to post a sampling of where voting is at.
A quarter of us say yes, half say no, a few expect a tie and a fifth have no idea.
To be fair though, the correct answer at this stage is "I Don't know"
Because nobody does know, so 20% answered correctly.
It's only after the event that the people who gave their opinion will be judged correct or not.
Perth prices are about half of Sydney prices (Perth median house price is $530K vs $946K in Sydney), and the difference will be even greater when this Sydney boom peaks, so selling two or three houses in Sydney and buying three or four equivalent 'half the price' houses in Perth with the proceeds should be easy enough.
Which suburbs near the CBD in Brisbane that you suggest ?
Because so far I can see that most of the OTP apartment is located within 5 Km of the Brissy CBD ring.
I have moved my focus to Melbourne and Geelong....the outer areas are moving quickly now!
I have no idea! I was watching houses in Salisbury, Holland Park West, Nathan, Mansfield, Wishart, suburbs near St Thomas More College, Algester, Parkinson a bit over past few years as they looked like reasonable value but I haven't been watching them lately. I was reading 10-20k's from CBD is expected to do well. I prefer houses to apartments.
Pretty good analogy. I'm sure the new government is trying, but they're pretty useless. As was the last lot. And the one before them - although they were pretty good at frittering away the gains from the biggest resources boom ever, and managing to lose QLD's AAA international credit rating. While unemployment continues to rise, the state will not be in a good... um... state.
