    Great forum…

    I would like to buy ex-government housing
    in the Northern Territory but I am not sure where to find a good source for it.

    Originally from WA so any pointers are highly appreciated.

    Thanks[:)]

    Gday,

    I think that PRD are currently doing all the auctions of ex housing stuff. Beware, though huge demand now for these, every single one sold in the last batch, and two of them went for the riduculous price of $200000. 12-15 months ago $130000 tops, and they couldnt sell the ones in Mouldy old Moulden, not even they are being bought.

    Good luck,

    Brent1

    I agree, just remember the there are two prices for property in darwin. one the locals pay and one for the southerner’s
    house prices have gone up in darwin as well (see web page)

    There is also a lot of development going on up there, so i dont think there’s too much left.
    good hunting!

    Hi Brent,

    Are you talking about the auctions that happened in the last few weeks (2nd and 3rd week of Oct)? Did you notice who the buyers were of the majority of the properties, and what property group they belong too. This may explain why the prices were unrealistically high?

    Sorry,

    Didnt go to the auction, heard it from A Real Estate Agent, he was really shocked at the prices.

    Regards,

    Brent [:(]
