Yes I think you have hit the nail on the head there Hobo not to mention the improvements to the motorway system. Also, and a little off topic, these distortions in global markets affecting the interest rates is pushing things along somewhat. You hold onto that Gold and Silver Hobo-jo! Me...

Yes quite right D.T ;) Question was a little loaded and point taken. However, was interested to hear other perspectives and if anyone was active in the area. I was probably being a bit cautious so as not to come across talking up my own book, so to speak. Cheers mate :D

Anyone on the ground or property interests in the south around Seaford in particular? I have one in Seaford west of Commercial Road being the older stock on the bigger blocks closer to the beach. I'm starting to see some movement in price 10%-15% last 12 months. Interested to hear...

I've got a property on Whaler Road in Seaford which I purchased several years ago before those infrastructure initiatives came to fruition. I've noticed a definite price appreciation in the market over the last 12-18 months for those particular reasons Erica..... IMHO I think it's got some...

Yes we picked up a 6 year old 4/2/2 about 2 years ago for $280k. Rents currently at $330 w/k. Great depreciation and little maintenance. Tenants have been great no issues at all. To be honest I haven't had much of a look lately but I'd say there's still some good buying in Redbank Plains to...

I'll clarify that also... The property was purchased through an SMSF at an 80% LVR. $280k Purchase; $330 W/K rent. $9500 depreciation on first year of holding at 15% (SMSF) 6 year old Vanilla type property cf+ in a capital city held in a SMSF... I'd be interested to see what...

Fantastic. Maybe we should all be investing in Darwin....

No problems OTV always happy to help out just let me know :)

Congratulations on the new PPOR mate ;) We did similar with our super and rolled over into a SMSF which holds the Ipswich property. Great strategy. Redcliffe was high on my list as well so I think it's a good choice. When I was completing my DD on the peninsula I found some really great...

Any update on a purchase OTV...?

I look back in time to when my wife and I first dipped our toes into property and investing in general. To say it has been an epic journey is an understatement. My investment strategy has developed immensely over the past seven years and we have been fortunate to accumulate several properties...

A friend of mine has a 25 acre block in the family in Kenthurst somewhere down towards Maraylya and they have just been rezoned down to 5 acre blocks which I thought was interesting. It would be interesting to see.... I'll give you the tip though...a residential block in Kenthurst would...

Yeah me too mate! They give me the willys :D

Hey Jacque, I had a sneaky suspicion you might have been from out this way ;) It is a very special part of the world. And, I know exactly what you mean in relation to crossing the imaginary border. I experience similar feelings on the way home from work...in fact I'll go further to say...

Further to my previous post.... Your experience with this prominent RE reminds me of a funny short story. When my wife and I were starting to leverage into property, my brother-in-law (My wife's brother), came to me and said property is going to crash by at least 50% over the following couple...
