It makes a lot of sense. It is precisely because of the supply and demand that I was thinking / researching what does the market want in that area. I will always have to look at the numbers.

I was thinking to buy a property which needed a little bit of reno but I live in Adelaide, so I’m not very sure if I’ll do it or not.

Adelaide doesn’t seem to be a good place for investing at the…[Read more]
