Doolandella continues to see strong rental demand with low vacancy across the suburb, supported by its convenient access to major road corridors and proximity to Richlands and Wacol employment hubs. Comparable three-bedroom, two-bathroom townhouses are currently achieving between $650 and $690 per week, with 112/7 Giosam Street leasing at $690 per week, 62/10 Giosam Street at $675 per week, and 11/20 Kathleen Street at $650 per week. These results reflect a competitive and active leasing market with consistent enquiry from quality tenants.

Three-bedroom townhouses are particularly well sought after in Doolandella, attracting families and professional couples who value the combination of space, low-maintenance living, and secure parking. The format suits renters seeking a house-like feel without the upkeep of a freestanding property, and demand from this tenant profile remains steady throughout the year. Your property sits comfortably within the current market range at a recommended rent of $675 per week.

Pricing Rationale

Based on a thorough analysis of the current Doolandella rental market, we recommend a weekly rent of $675 for your townhouse at 6/48 Philong Street, with a considered range of $650 to $700 per week. This figure reflects the genuine demand we are seeing for well-presented three-bedroom, two-bathroom townhouses in the suburb, where quality stock continues to attract strong tenant enquiry. The two-car accommodation at your property adds a practical advantage that resonates with the renting demographic in this area, supporting confident positioning toward the mid-to-upper end of the current market. To arrive at this recommendation, we closely examined six comparable townhouses that have recently been listed for rent within Doolandella, all sharing the same three-bedroom, two-bathroom configuration. At the upper end of the range, 112/7 Giosam Street and 3/182 Government Road are both seeking $690 per week, while 23/2 Castamore Way is listed at $680 per week and 62/10 Giosam Street at $675 per week. The lower boundary is represented by 11/20 Kathleen Street and ID:21173599/36 Philong Street — notably on the same street as your property — both listed at $650 per week. Together, these comparables establish a clear and active market range, confirming that $675 per week sits comfortably at the midpoint and is a figure well supported by current leasing evidence. In terms of positioning strategy, entering the market at $675 per week strikes the right balance between achieving a strong return for you and generating the broad tenant interest needed to secure a quality applicant promptly. Pricing at this level places your property above the entry point of the range, signalling genuine value without overstretching relative to the competition. Should market conditions prove particularly strong at the time of listing or if tenant enquiry is exceptionally high, there is room to test closer to $700 per week. Equally, the $650 lower boundary provides reassurance that any necessary adjustment to secure the right tenant can be made without compromising your long-term rental position.

Alisha is the senior property manager at ipswich.com.au, with over fourteen years in property management and a genuine commitment to customer service. Her experience spans the full breadth of the industry — from sales administration to working alongside builders to office management — which gives her a rare, well-rounded understanding of how a property really comes together and what it takes to look after one well. Today, Alisha manages a select portfolio in Ipswich. The deliberately small size is the point: it means every owner and every tenant gets her full attention, fast responses, and the kind of hands-on care that bigger rent rolls simply can't offer. For Alisha, property management isn't about volume — it's about doing right by the people behind each property.

Russell Peter
Russell Peter
Director

Russell Peter has spent more than twenty years working in property management across the Ipswich region. As principal of ipswich.com.au, he's built a reputation for putting data ahead of sales patter — giving landlords and investors the real numbers on their suburb, their street, and their property, rather than the optimistic estimates the industry tends to lead with. Over two decades managing rentals and advising investors in Ipswich, Russell has watched the city grow from an undervalued satellite of Brisbane into one of South East Queensland's genuine investment stories. That long view is the foundation of how he works: management as the anchor service, honest market reads refreshed against live data, and investor-to-investor sales only when a client is ready to move. No high-pressure calls, no inflated appraisals — just steady, informed guidance through every move an investment makes.
