    Hi all,
    I am new to property investing so please forgive me if my question seems a little naive. I have been reading property investor mags etc and i am aware of APM and hotspotting etc. Can anyone offer any comment about the best (and most cost effective) ways of identifying the best suburbs to buy an investment property in. I am leaning more towards long term capital growth than short term positive gearing. I am currently looking at Melbourne.
    Thanks Darrin

    you will find plenty of tips in this forum if you search under melbourne topics/threads .

    Im not that familiar with Melb but it seems for long term growth anywhere within 20kms of the CBD should not let you down long term. Even areas further out like Seaford/Frankstown or Geelong should be fine.
