Sure Benny I’ll try to make best of this situation and hard lesson not to fall again to this new OTP stuff.

Thank you for the input and suggestion.

Because the suburb is close to the CBD hence it will increase in value for sure according to them.

I guess it will be long time 10 years+ before it is becoming Cashflow Positive :-|

I bought a 1br Off The Plan bedroom in Fortitude Valley around 3 months ago and starting to think it isn’t the best choice for my first investment property due to the fact of Brisbane has already oversupplied with apartment units.

It’s in a large block of 200+ high rise…[Read more]

Between those two suburbs mentioned below in Victoria state:

Frankston, VIC 3199
Werribee, VIC 3030

Which one that you prefer or choose for investing that is recession proof or at least with the high yield closer to neutral gearing ?

Strategy is to hold and rent with minor cosmetic reno for uplifting the design.

Thanks.

Yes, based on what they are available here in Sydney NSW, Todd Hunter is the man you are after.

He’s got some valid suggestion in directing my investment need in COOMERA and ORMEAU area. Not many people knows about those two places until now it gets more popular due to Disneyland and Westfield mall development.

I believe now it is the good time to consider COOMERA, UPPER COOMERA and ORMEAU as the next boom suburb in QLD because of these two big developments:

You can try to invest or research more about Loganlea or Ipswich area, those are still cheap with just under $400k so you could end up buying two investment properties with high yield to make you easier to hold during the high interest rate in the next 2 years ahead.

Alternatively if $400k is your budget, my buyers agent in Sydney is…[Read more]

So does this would means this area is now started to be getting better hence the developer selected this area ?

See: http://www.coronis.com.au/blog/a-decade-of-planning-sees-coomera-flourish

He mentioned that Upper Coomera is full of families (they recently built a massive new childcare centre so there is clearly a lot of children in the area)

Many new houses, lots of development, and a billion dollar shopping centre precinct (including…[Read more]

THere is big mall development going on: http://www.coronis.com.au/blog/a-decade-of-planning-sees-coomera-flourish
Now this area is growing fast for sure.

Surely their research division can’t go wrong in selecting locations :-)

interesting day ahead for us investor here where the banks just increased the IR last week due to APRA ruling.

You can use this: http://www.smartpropertyinvestment.com.au/data/

Rule of 72 is what is used to work out how long it take for a IP to double in value, given the Capital Gain. Divide an areas historic CG into 72 = years to double. ie. 72/7%= 10 years. Another example 72/8%= 9 years.

You can use https://www.planningalerts.org.au/alerts to enter the location that you’d like to monitor.

Cool, so yes you can’t go wrong investing within 15KM of the Brisbane CBD, but obviously the price has moved up month by month.

As for me it’s different, the Sydney buyers agent (Todd Hunter) told me that this is the next place for the Capital Gain increase for the next 5-10 years. To cut the story short, I wasn’t interested with the…[Read more]

So how does UPPER COOMERA prospect now ?

I’m interested to invest in this area after Todd Hunter (Buyers Agent) said to me that this is for a medium term growth 5-10 years.

How’s thing going with the COOMERA investment property ?

last month when I engage one of the buyers agent in Sydney to find me investment property in SEQ, Todd Hunter (www.wheregroup.com.au) has confirmed with their research in email with some proof that UPPER COOMERA or ORMEAU is the potential for growth in the next 5-10…[Read more]

Ah I see, so do you mean not far away from Logan City council or Ipswich city council ?
Because when you mention property sub $400k it is hard to find house within 10KM of brisbane CBD ring.
