From lions and flying saucers… to dual incomes and rate cuts

If you grew up in SEQ, this might take you back…

Heading south on the old Pacific Highway:

First on the right — Bullen’s Lion Safari at Beenleigh.
Actual lions. In paddocks. In Queensland.

Then a bit further down, on the left — that flying saucer-shaped servo at Yatala, home to the Lions Club pancake house.

Beyond that? Not much.

Just open road until you hit Southport.

Fast forward to now?
That whole stretch is wall-to-wall housing, warehouses, and one of the busiest stretches of road in Australia.

Wouldn't it be good to find the next Yatala?
Wasn’t that long ago Plainlands was a blink-and-you’d-miss-it spot between Toowoomba and Brisbane.

Now?

  • Bunnings and Woolies are up and running

  • Aldi and Supercheap Auto have moved in

  • Two private schools with over 1,000 students enrolled

  • UQ Gatton campus just down the road — a major ag and vet science hub

  • Zoning in place for major retail and industrial growth

  • Vacancy rates are tight and yields are strong

  • And the Warrego Highway puts it within easy reach of both Brisbane and Toowoomba

Which is why I wanted to let you know about this dual-income property: 

  • Rental yield of 6.23%

  • Land size: 801m²

  • Total build size: 219.96m²

And with financial markets pricing in another rate cut in July, this could be a smart time to be looking ahead.
