Why we don’t publish a Underwood approval rate

Our records hold 3 decided secondary dwelling (granny flat) applications on Underwood properties. A percentage computed from a sample that small would look authoritative and mean almost nothing, so we don’t publish one. That is not a gap in council data — it usually reflects that many compliant granny flats proceed without a development application (building approval only), so few ever appear in DA records.

Across Logan as a whole the sample is meaningful: 90% of 1,339 decided secondary dwelling (granny flat) applications were approved, with a median decision time of 28 days. These are real, decided applications assessed by the Logan council, not estimates or modelling.

Whether a granny flat works on a specific Underwood block comes down to the zone, precinct and overlays for that address — lot size, flood and character mapping decide more than suburb averages ever will.

About this data

These figures summarise decided development applications recorded against Underwood properties and Logan council records, current as of 26 July 2026. Past decisions describe how comparable proposals have fared — they do not guarantee, and cannot predict, the outcome of any future application. This page is general information, not planning or legal advice: what is achievable on a specific site depends on its zoning, overlays, lot dimensions and assessment pathway.
