What Is the Logan Corridor?

The Logan Corridor refers to the growth zone stretching south and southwest of Brisbane, encompassing Logan City and parts of Ipswich. It includes South Ripley (Ipswich LGA), Greenbank, Bahrs Scrub (Logan LGA), and Logan Reserve. The corridor is serviced by the Logan Motorway, Gateway Motorway, and Centenary Highway — giving residents quick access to Brisbane CBD, the Gold Coast, and Ipswich. The area has been identified in Queensland's South East Queensland Regional Plan as a priority growth corridor.

South Ripley: Fastest-Growing Suburb in Ipswich

South Ripley is the standout performer in the Logan Corridor. Located 35km southwest of Brisbane CBD off the Centenary Highway, South Ripley is home to the Providence Estate — a master-planned community with schools, retail, parklands and recreation facilities built into the estate design. New house and land packages start from $560,000 for a 3-bedroom home and $620,000 for a 4-bedroom. The Ripley Town Centre (Coles, specialty retail, medical) is less than 1km from most estates.

Greenbank and Bahrs Scrub

Greenbank sits 35km south of Brisbane CBD in Logan City. New builds start from $590,000. The suburb offers large land sizes (400–600sqm) at affordable prices and benefits from proximity to Browns Plains and Park Ridge retail. Bahrs Scrub is a quieter suburb 40km south of Brisbane with packages from $580,000. Both areas have low vacancy rates and strong rental demand from families seeking space.

Logan Reserve: Affordability and Access

Logan Reserve offers some of the most affordable new builds in the corridor — packages from $550,000 — with the Logan Motorway connecting to Brisbane CBD in under 35 minutes. The Riverleigh Estate is a current active development with turnkey packages across 3 and 4 bedroom configurations. Weekly rents for 4-bedroom homes average $560–$610 in Logan Reserve.

Investment Yields in the Logan Corridor

Gross rental yields across the Logan Corridor range from 4.3% to 5.1% in 2026 — among the highest for new builds within commuting distance of Brisbane. South Ripley and Greenbank lead on yield. Logan Reserve and Bahrs Scrub offer the best entry prices. Vacancy rates across the corridor are below 1.5%. The combination of affordability, infrastructure, and yield makes the Logan Corridor a top pick for property investors in Queensland in 2026.
