Leading the charge in addressing the housing challenge

Housing supply February 5, 2024

Unlocking opportunities for more housing

EDQ is leading the charge in addressing the housing challenge by unlocking land to deliver more homes for Queenslanders. With the housing system under national pressure and Queensland’s population, particularly in South East Queensland (SEQ), expected to reach around 6 million by 2046, the need for well-planned communities has never been greater.

EDQ collaborates with the community, local government, planners and developers to create diverse housing options that cater to various household needs and budgets. We are proud to be at the forefront of this effort by unlocking new land areas for timely development, partnering with industry to deliver affordable solutions, facilitating infrastructure planning and delivery, and championing best practices in social and environmental infrastructure.

Explore our compelling case study to see our innovative approaches and achievements in greenfield Priority Development Areas (PDAs) like Ripley Valley and Greater Flagstone. Discover how EDQ is transforming land into thriving communities for the future.
