    Hi All,

    I have just discovered this forum, what a breath of fresh air to be able to ask all these questions going through my brain and see what other people are doing!

    My situation is this – I have a house that I am wanting to rent out and possibly sell in another 2 yrs or so, and I am looking to buy another property in the area to live in.

    Capital Growth is my main interest here, as the property I buy isn’t going to be ‘the house I live in for the rest of my life’ maybe 2-5 years and then rent it out too..

    What options do you think are best for maximum growth? eg. Would you go close to the beach but 2bdrm apartment, or a bit further back but a 2bdrm house on 600sqm?

    Another option I am looking at also, is brand new 3bdrm but on the bare minimum land (minimal POS) or 3bdrm on a block where you have a front and back yards?

    If it helps, I am looking at the areas of Frankston, Langwarrin and Carrum Downs, my current property is in Frankston.

    Look forward to hearing others thoughts!

    For capital growth i look for older properties on bigger blocks (It's the land which increases more in value).

    Look for land or an older home with a large parcel of land you can do something with down the track
