    I have a client who is looking to offload a block of 4 x 2 bedroom units in Benalla.

    The valuation I commission came in at $90,000 per unit and I have offered him a cash deal at $60,000 per unit which he has accepted.

    The rental agent has been managing the units for over 20 years and tells me the demand is very good.

    As I have never been to Benalla I would appreciate any views from the locals on the forum.

    Also if anyone can recommend a good Victorian Solicitor then i would welcome the recommendation.

    I have used the same lawyer in Brisbane for 11 years but never bought outside sunny Qld.

    Cheers Richard

    Benalla has its fair share of low income population, of which some can be a bit rough. Seems like a reasonable buy without knowing/seeing the properties. I suggest they would be cash+.
    For a Lawyer try Jeff Francis on 03 5721 8300 if you hav’nt found someone yet. He is from Wangaratta but does a fair slice of Benalla’s legal business – not much to choose from in Benalla I believe.

    Hello Richard,

    Benalla is a nice country town. I grew up the road from there Wangaratta, but now Sydney.

    It is getting more tourist to the location, but is still growing / developing, slow but not going backwards.

    Good purchase there :)

    Maybe nextime you get down there time it with the ” Rose & Garden Festivale”.

    They have a couple of big draw cards like this, it is also not too far from Winton Raceway, which has extreme limited accommodation for car racing.

    Good luck with it, if you want to onsell for $50,000 each unit let me know HAHA

    Cheers
