The median house sale price in Burleigh Waters is approximately 1.97M as of 2025/26, with a median unit price of approximately 1.01M. House prices have grown by 8.1% over the past 12 months, reflecting strong and consistent buyer demand driven by interstate migration, outstanding school catchments, and extremely tight housing supply.

With a rental vacancy rate under 1%, median weekly rents of $950 to $1,050 for houses, and gross rental yields of approximately 3.8 to 4.2%, the suburb offers solid income returns alongside proven capital growth. The suburb’s family demographic, outstanding school catchments, and proximity to Burleigh Heads beach ensure ongoing demand from both owner-occupiers and tenants. Investors who purchased in Burleigh Waters five or ten years ago have in many cases doubled their capital – and the fundamental drivers of demand are not diminishing.

​I recently sold my unit in Mermaid Beach through Freddie Tehle at PRD, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. ​Freddie was exceptionally friendly, professional, and transparent. He made the entire process seamless by keeping me informed every step of the way. ​Freddie’s market knowledge and negotiation skills truly delivered—he managed to sell the property for well above what I was expecting. ​I highly recommend Freddie and the team at PRD.

We recently sold our home in Burleigh Waters with Freddie and could not have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, Freddie was professional, genuine and incredibly hardworking throughout the entire process. Selling a home can be stressful, however Freddie made everything feel smooth, organised and far less overwhelming. What stood out most was his communication and dedication to achieving the best possible result for us. He consistently kept us updated and was always available to answer any questions we had. His knowledge of the local market and strategy for selling our home was exceptional. Freddie achieved an amazing result that exceeded our expectations and we truly felt he cared about the outcome for us. We would highly recommend Freddie to anyone looking to sell in Burleigh Waters or the surrounding areas.

Freddie and PRD were absolutely brilliant in both selling my house and purchasing my new one. His communication was exceptional, always keeping me up to date of the progress of things. I’m not sure another agency would have got the price I received for my house due to his expert local knowledge and marketing strategy. Would lightly recommend Freddy and PRD and will be using these guys again in the future. Thanks guys

We had a very positive experience working with Freddie during the recent sale of our late mother's home in Miami. He handled everything with professionalism, sensitivity, and efficiency, achieving a result we are extremely happy with. We truly appreciated both his & Jemma’s guidance throughout the process and would highly recommend their services.
