Maranoa Regional Council Significant valuation increases have been recorded in the lesser quality rural country types, while more moderate increases have been noted in the better-quality scrub country north of Wallumbilla. A market-based review of rural properties has been undertaken along the Murweh and Balonne shire boundaries, resulting in varied changes. Continued strong beef and commodity prices, confidence in the rural sector and historically low interest rates have resulted in increases in value for grazing and broad- acre lands in rural Queensland. This is particularly so in South West and Central Queensland. The increase in rural property values is despite ongoing drought declarations in many parts of the State. Maranoa Regional Council .
