Hi All,
I've been looking for an IP opportunity for the past couple of months but having difficulties deciding whether a 2 bedroom unit far east or a 3 bedroom house in the west would be better suited looking from a long term perspective?
My strategy would be to buy and hold. Looking at holding the property for a minimum of 10 years.
~.....whilst still have land for potential capital growth.
Are you aware, contrary to whats bandied around that becomes popular belief, its not the land that determines potential CG? Land is purely the commodity same as houses, villas, apartments & townhouses are. Its the ratio of supply and demand for the commodity that determines growth.
Get a unit in the east, the west is becoming overcrowded, took me close to an hour to get from Point Cook to Port Melbourne and I left at 6.30am...
. The best solution is to live near the city and work out of the city, so you are always opposite the traffic.
What makes you think anywhere else is different? I've driven into the city from the east in morning peak hour... awful experience. Driving up Hoddle Street in peak hour, nightmare experience. The best solution is to live near the city and work out of the city, so you are always opposite the traffic. My 20km drive takes me 25-30 minutes.

(except on days like today, when I've been in the office since 5:30am... but that's another story).
