Abstract This research proposal project has been designed to highlight the residential property market in the context of Queensland, Australia. In the age of rapid globalization, demand for real estate has increased noticeably and in Australia, the accumulation of real estate is considered as a source of wealth. However, during the Covid-19 pandemic, the residential real estate condition of Queensland has witnessed significant threats with noticeable economic and non-economic impacts. However, this proposal has been tried to discuss the extent of pandemic impacts on the GDP of this nation with identification of other disruptors. With increased immigration and the significant threat of a pandemic, Queensland is now subjected to dynamic shifts to digital interventions to promote daily operations with dynamic regulations and policies of residential real estate. Limits, delimitations, thesis plans are also mentioned. Key findings are included in the conclusion part for better and quick understanding.
Research MethodologyResearch methodology is an outline or 'contextual framework' that guides how research can be carried out with intensive alignment to answer research questions. Therefore, systematic and rational ways to design a study can be attained through a proper methodology which has a huge significance. As opined by Rogers and Dufty-Jones (2016), unjustified and irrational selection of methodology can make findings irrelevant and vague. Hence, research methodology content is required to be based on certain values, beliefs, views that have logical and coherent alignment with investigation objectives. However, this entire project can be subdivided into two different phases like the 'preparation phase' and 'execution phase'. This methodology part is an unavoidable part of the 'Preparation phase' was detailed to allow feasibility assessment of proposed projects is structured with adequate justifications and rationale. Aspects proposed research h methodologies are described below.
Research ApproachA research approach is a procedure and plan which mainly consists of broader assumption steps for in-depth data collection, data analysis, or interpretation. As stated by Abidoye and Chan, (2016), however, the research approach incorporates data collection and specific ways of reasoning or data analysis. For this investigation Deductive Research Approach can be followed that establishes reasoning from particular to general. As stated by Botzem and Dobusch (2017), from the propositions and premises, conclusions can be deducted through this approach.
Justification
Choosing Deductive Research Approaches for this investigation can be rational as it possesses opportunities to measure concepts quantitatively that are cost and time effective. Besides, derived findings of this study based on Queensland can be applied to all global nations in the conceptualization of key disruptors' impacts on residential real estate. However, understanding variables becomes better understood, choosing a deductive research approach in this study is truly justified (Jacobs, 2015).
Research DesignThere is a considerable academic contradiction regarding research design. It is contradicted as a choice between qualitative and quantitative or data collection and analysis. However, for this investigation, 'Both Qualitative and Quantitative Research Design can be followed. Quantitative research design is pivotal in the quantification of responses that supports a conclusive research structure (Wong, 2017). On the other hand, a qualitative research design is concentrated on participants' emotional responses for enriching findings with diverse individual opinions.
Justification
The quantitative research design will enable the researcher to gather information and data regarding disruptors in the residential property market in Queensland in Australia. In this case, a number of statistical data can be gathered for proving the claim of the research so that better analysis of the data can be done for proving the claim of the research title (Paris, 2017). Moreover, the qualitative research design would enable the researcher to have the comparison of other textual details as well as facilitate better data collection processes for disruptors on the residential property market in Queensland.
Research PhilosophyResearch philosophy is actually interconnected with the information source, knowledge development, and nature of information in an investigation. In different words, research philosophy deals with the processes of data collection for the research and the way by which the data are analysed. Four different research philosophies such as pragmatism, positivism, realism, and interpretivism deal with the data collection procedures and utilization of information. For this investigation, the researcher considered interpretivism research philosophy.

Justification
The interpretivism is engaged with the idealisms philosophical position, which enabled the investigator to gather enough data and information about the disruptors of the residential property of Queensland. Martek et al. (2019), also has said that interpretivism is also most effective for considering quantitative research and qualitative research as well as it deploys multiple processes for reflecting more aspects of the research topic.
Data Collection Method The data collection method is one of the crucial aspects of any type of investigation as it enables the researcher to reach an appropriate conclusion for proving the claim of the research title. In other words, it is the process of gathering data to answer the research question and testing the developed hypothesis. As opined by Bryan et al. (2017), it is generally divided into two sections secondary method and the primary method. Although it is highly contradicted about the efficiency of these methods, the researcher considered primary data collection processes for both qualitative and quantitative data. As opined by Ansari et al. (2015), quantitative data includes all kinds of data that are statistical and reflect the actual condition of the phenomena whereas qualitative data involve the data based on theory and incidental occurrence. In this investigation, survey methods would be used for collecting primary quantitative data while interview methods would be done for gathering primary qualitative data. Following these processes, the researcher can compare both data for the development of a justified conclusion and analyze the data accurately.
Data Analysis Technique In terms of analysis processes, two distinct data analysis processes present are qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis processes. As both of the data types are considered the researcher would use these processes for analyzing the data regarding the disruptors on the residential property. For the survey method, the researcher would test reliability, normality, validity, correlation, and regression of the data for validating the information property. On the other hand, interviews would be analyzed through thematic style for reaching a conclusion. As opined by Mangialardo et al. (2018), both of the data would be compared so that validity of actual data can be archived in a specific manner that would contribute to the development of conclusion and proving the research claim.

Please read the instructions on Moodle and in the Unit Profile when preparing assignments. There are many elements of this work that do not follow expectations. Although CQUni Success shows limited access for you it does show you have accessed the site and should therefore be aware of the assignment requirements.
This information below was not followed for your title page.
Title Page
Please ensure that your assignment has a cover page with the unit code, assessment number, proposed thesis title (no more than 25 words, which should be descriptive and unambiguous), your name, student number, student email address, name of the course you are enrolled in (e.g., Masters, Professional Doctorate or Doctor of Philosophy), assessment due date, name(s) of Research Supervisor(s), and Unit Coordinator. If you have an approved assessment extension this needs to be noted on the title page.
Make sure that you send a draft of your assessment to your supervisorswellbeforethe Due Dateso they have time to provide you with feedback to improve the final draft of your assessment. Include on the assignment cover page the date you first provided a draft of the assignment to your supervisor and any other subsequent dates.
You are expected to make contact with the CQU Library within the first week of the unit for assistance with determining your search strategy. Include on the assignment cover page the date you first had an appointment with a librarian and any other subsequent dates.
Add acknowledgements of re-using previous work if applicable.

Introduction
An abstract is different to an introduction. Revise according to the dot points noted above.
Scope of literature search
Please see the dot points above for what was expected to be included.
Search framework
The diagram expected was to show how you searched for relevant literature. See dot points above.
Referencing style
This should be stated on the title page. I note your in-text referencing looks like APA but your list looks like Harvard. Even still would require some modifications. I have attached the APA and Harvard referencing manuals. Please determine which one you will use and be consistent.
Please share my feedback with your supervisor as you revise this assignment.
Revision and resubmission is generally expected within seven days. Send me an email when you are ready to resubmit, and I will reopen the Moodle link for you to upload an additional file.
