Queensland Housing Investment Growth Initiative (QHIGI)— Land Opportunity pre-lodgement form

The QHIGI was established to accelerate the delivery of 6,365 new social homes, through a $1.813 billion investment in a four-year, integrated investment program across the State.

We are pleased to announce the first tranche of government-owned land is now available through QuickStarts Qld https://www.chde.qld.gov.au/about/initiatives/housing-investment/quickstarts-qld and includes properties located at:

  • Minnie St, Southport [GOLD COAST]
  • South Station Rd, Booval [IPSWICH]

We are seeking proposals which include a social housing component equal to or greater than the total funding contribution by the State, which includes the market value of the land as well as any additional capital grant funding.

These first two land offerings are available as priority projects under QuickStarts Qld, and the successful Proponents must be able to enter into a capital funding agreement with the State before 30 June 2022.

Queensland Government-owned land offers are subject to a competitive tender process. All conforming bids on the same parcel of land received by the nominated close date will be comparatively assessed. Please note: mandatory eligibility requirements are in place.

Submissions closes at 11.59am on Friday, 21 January 2022.

All proponents are required to complete this pre-lodgement form as the first step in submitting your Request for Detailed Proposal in relation to this land opportunity.

The Concierge Team is available provide general assistance to proponents who have questions about the QHIGI, or the pre-lodgement form.

Any advice provided by the Concierge Team will be based on the information contained in this pre-lodgement form and in addition, questions asked through the QHIGI website’s questions and answers page.

The Concierge Team:

  • will not review any EOI and/or RFDP material prepared by a proponent
  • is not a decision-making body so any advice, provided prior to your RFDP lodgement, is not provided in an assessment capacity.

Proponent information contained in this form will be used in subsequent RFDP phases as a summary report.

Proponents will be asked to provide more detailed information should your proposal progress to future phases of assessment.

At each subsequent RFDP phase proponents will also be asked to confirm whether the information contained in this on-line form is still current.

The pre-lodgement process is supported by the QHIGI Concierge Team.
