Lock In Your Building Inspections For Greenbank Now So You Can Ride The Success Of Its Friendly Neighbour!

There’s no doubt that Greater Springfield is growing at a rapid rate with new infrastructure and services popping up regularly. Why not take advantage and consider property and building inspections at Greenbank, the suburb next door?

Greenbank is a rural-residential suburb of Logan, located only 12km from Springfield Central where you will find an abundance of parks, water parks and eateries. The Orion Shopping Centre supplies all your essentials and the Brisbane CBD is just a 35 minute drive away.

In the 1880s dairy farming and timber were Greenbank’s main industries and in the 1890s Greenbank Station was divided into farming estates. In August 1951, military authorities resumed large parcels of land in Greenbank and the Greenbank Army Camp began its life. In 1996 the Greenbank Military Training Area was placed on the register of the National Estate and is still in use today, not only as a training facility but as a largely untouched wildlife refuge due to the uncleared land.

First Home Buyer? Our Building Inspector Talks Greenbank

Greenbank has the benefits of big blocks, open spaces, entertainment precincts and easy access local industry.  These are big ticks for property buyers and with a median price around the half a million mark, it’s a mix of first and second home buyers lining up at Open Houses.  Like other lesser known areas with more famous neighbours, Greenbank is one of those areas where the odd bargain can still be had simply because it’s not a well known name (think Brighton on Brisbane’s north side – lesser known neighbour to the highly desirable Sandgate and Shorncliffe addresses right next door).  In areas like Greenbank it pays to know an investment gem when you see it – and to pounce on it fast.  To avoid making newbie mistakes, we’ve put together the ultimate guide to your first ever walk through on a property.  Walk in there armed with the knowledge you need to move ahead or walk away.

Why you might buy in Greenbank

Greenbank is known for its rural-residential feel, very different to a typical residential suburb. With many large acreage blocks and greenery, it’s perfect for families looking to stretch out and appreciate the great outdoors.

Besides its rural qualities, Greenbank is where you’ll find 84.8% of homes either owned outright or under mortgage according to the last census in 2011, likely demonstrating it’s an affordable suburb where families prefer to live instead of invest. Young families make up most of the residents in Greenbank. The median price for a 3 bedroom home is $500,000 as at April 2016 and the average cost of renting in Greenbank is $430 per week.

Greenbank is home to a state school, public library and various sporting facilities but hugely benefits from its close proximity to Springfield Central. There, you’ll find everything from hospitals and medical centres, universities and high schools to retail and commercial centres.
