Looking to now buy in Adelaide and Brisbane. Can anyone suggest some undervalued areas in these cities?

I am aiming to buy in both cities for under $400k.

I’m about to purchase an investment property in Frankston North for approximately $380k and would like to know if I’d be better off buying the property through my company. I have my reasons for doing considering this avenue but what I would like to know is whether the major banks will lend to my company. I have a 20% deposit…[Read more]

That is great to know. It would be good if realestate.com.au provided a median over say 3 to 6 months rather than 12. As we can see the median of 317k in no way reflects the market over the past 3 months! Might have to renew my RP Data membership!

Time for me to me to get into this area before we see that median climb north of 400k in the…[Read more]

I’ve never put much thought into how realestate.com.au calculates the median but it is something I will have to look into as I am certain that the current median price of $317k in no way reflects sales over the past two months. There are only a handful of properties in the past few months that have sold for under…[Read more]

We were actually looking at properties around the $360k mark that still required extensive renovation. My guess is the one I posted above will actually sell between $390k and $410k based current conditions. Links below give an idea of what I’m talking about.

1) Original condition:…[Read more]

At least I can still get in under $400,000!

I’m beginning to wish I’d gone with my gut almost a 1 year ago when we arrived in Aus. A similar property on the next street sold for $295,000!! If it were put on the market today I believe it would fetch well over $380k (one just sold for $390,000 on the same street). Many of the houses are being renovated…[Read more]

I am currently negotiating a deal around the 360k mark in a nice leafy street in Frankston North (well away from the less desirable pocket), 10 minute drive to beach and walking distance to station. In my opinion this is still great value but would love to hear a few more opinions. FYI – this property is has a long-term…[Read more]

My wife and I recently moved to Australia after being based in Europe for the past five years and were astonished at the prices for established homes on the outskirts of Sydney. Our plan had been to buy a house in greater Sydney primarily as an investment but one that we would live in and renovate over the next 3 years until…[Read more]
