A SMALL rural town about 160km west of Brisbane is now Queensland’s fastest selling house market.

Houses in Goombungee, north of Toowoomba, are selling, on average, in just 10 days, according to the latest REA Market Trends report.

It had a population of 786 in the 2021 census, and has a median sales price of $436,000 – more than double what it was just three years ago.
