Median house price
No open median house price for Syndicate.
Queensland sells its property sales records through licensed brokers rather than publishing them openly, so there is no official suburb median we can show. ABS median established-house price, Greater Brisbane: $1.1M; Rest of Qld: $815k.
Terrain & hazard exposure
Shares are the proportion of the suburb's land area. Land where Landsat saw water in at least 1% of clear passes since 1987, excluding permanent water and filtered by DEA's confidence layer. Satellites miss flood peaks, so this is a floor, not a risk estimate; dense high-rise cores can still register tower shadow as water. Designated for development control; a designation, not a prediction of fire behaviour. Includes the potential-impact buffer around bushfire prone vegetation. Mapping vintages differ by region (South East Queensland 2017, elsewhere 2014). Elevation is orthometric height from a 30 m model; no hydrology or drainage is modelled. No open statutory flood layer is published for Queensland yet.
Planning & zoning
Zones are grouped into ten families so states compare; the council's own scheme is the authority for any one lot. Listed-place counts follow each state's own list, so they do not compare across states. Queensland has no statewide zoning map — each council publishes its own. Source: Queensland Heritage Register.
