Andrew’s Expert Advice on Loganholme

I have been a qualified builder for almost forty years and inspecting homes for almost thirty. There are very few experts that know Brisbane and Logan properties like I do. With the age of some of the homes in Loganholme, you will need my knowledge on building standards over time. I’ll check if the home is compliant with current building regulations and whether any historic issues have slipped through the cracks. Ask me all your questions about your potential family Loganholme property.

Why choose Loganholme?

Loganholme is a suburb of the city of Logan, some 30 kilometres south of Brisbane. At just 9 square kilometres, Loganholme is a small but historic suburb with plenty of beautiful green parkland and affordable housing. The area contains properties with sizable backyards, maintaining the lifestyle many Queenslanders remember from their childhoods in decades past.

Loganholme is in an excellent location nestled between Brisbane and the Gold Coast, with easy access to the Pacific Motorway and the Logan Motorway, and public transport at the bus interchange at the Logan Hyperdome. At 50 minutes, it’s a decent commute to Brisbane’s CBD.

The suburb is also excellent for shopping with the Logan Hyperdome just an 8-minute drive away. For young families, there’s the Loganholme State School. The closest secondary school is Shailer Park State High School in neighbouring Shailer Park.
