LJ Hooker Ipswich and LJ Hooker Goodna - Michael Rossiter - Des Besanko

Ipswich first began with the exploration of the Bremer River in 1826 by Captain Patrick Logan, the then commandant of the convict settlement at Brisbane. He discovered hills of limestone along the banks of the Bremer, and a short time later, sent an overseer and several convicts to quarry limestone and to build a lime-burning kiln. This settlement was called Limestone.
In 1843, the new town was renamed Ipswich then in 1860 it gained Municipal Status. Being at the intersection of routes to the Darling Downs and Upper Brisbane Valley gave Ipswich strategic significance then, and still does, to this very day.
Just a little further down the road towards Brisbane was the "Woo-gar-oo" sheep farm which was proclaimed a village and re-named Goodna in 1856.

In 1863 Ipswich became home to the famous Ipswich Grammar; Queensland's first secondary school and only 2 years later in 1865 Queensland's first railway line was completed between Ipswich and Grandchester which is why Ipswich has a very important and historical railway museum; well worth a visit.

In 1904 the town of Ipswich was declared a city and then in 1959 Goodna became part of Ipswich extending the boundaries to create one of the largest city areas in the world.
1925 saw the birth of LJ Hooker and since that time the man and the brand have been synonymous with real estate and property in this great city.
