What this calculator can and cannot tell you

Queensland councils publish a minimum residential general rate for an owner-occupied principal place of residence. It is a floor, not a typical bill, and most owner-occupiers pay more scaled to their land value. Redland City Council sets that minimum at $1,436 for 2026-27.

It can estimate the general rate on your notice, not reproduce the notice. Leave the value blank and the rates line is the council's own published residential figure for 2026-27. Enter the land value from your valuation notice and it becomes Redland City Council's 2026-27 rate in the dollar applied to that value, subject to the minimum, with the sum shown so you can check it. It covers the general rate and any special rate the council charges on every property, not waste or other separate charges.

Water and sewerage is the 2025-26 figure for the relevant utility. The driving commute is modelled at the ATO 2026-27 rate of 91 cents per kilometre, with trip frequency tapering as distance rises, and is a commute estimate rather than total household driving. Building insurance and body corporate are AI-estimated and labelled as estimates wherever they appear. No property prices, land valuations or capital growth figures appear anywhere on SuburbCost.
