    Was looking there approximately 3 weeks ago. I love that there is large amounts if infrastructure investment around the area. I was looking more in the Ipswich CBD, which I believe was vastly underpriced. I especially like the Ipswich City Councils plans for a nice cafe/mall district.

    Its a great area if you want a strong investment.

    I have to admit I invested in Toowoomba due to the large rental yield which can be acquired there. Ipswich is still low in the rental department.

    Hope this has helped.

    I own a property in East Ipswich. I bought at the end of 2007 which wasn't the smartest move.  Family members also have a couple in the suburb.  It is quite a strange area.  There are Queenslanders price around the 500K plus range and also areas of housing comission.  Rental yields are still a bit low compared to Toowoomba.

    A new bridge is due in the next 5-8 years which will like East Ipswich to North Ipswich and remove congestion from the CBD.   This is a big bonus.

    There is good access to shops, schools and rail.  I think in the future it will be a bit of a latte suburb.  East Ipswich has always been a sound investment.  Rentals are always in demand.  If I were to buy in the area I would be looking for cottage qlder style that you can reno now or in the future.  I would also steer clear of housing comission streets. 

    There are many well priced houses on large lots with subdivision potential.

    East Ipswich will always be a sound investment and rentals are always in demand.
