R377 - Not a very supportive stance to take when newbies ask for guidance, thanks for making me feel like a dick. Makes me not want to post anything ever for fear of being shot down. I only made a new thread because I wanted to start a discussion and glean the most up-to-date information, not...

Hi Somersoft Folk, I want to invest in Adelaide and have about $500K to spend. I would prefer a house to unit and I need it to be relatively cash flow positive or neutral and I intend to hold on to it for 15+ years. I am in Sydney and have very limited knowledge of Adelaide, having only visited...

I'm not a Yardney fan personally. I went to one of his free one-day seminars and the ratio of actual useful info vs. upsell was not good at all. Came off as money-grabbing and influencing new investors to use Metropole rather than learn to invest intelligently themselves.

leoT, I didn't make it to Holland Park sorry to can't offer any insight there. infinity , I did a lot of market-watching online before I went up to brizzy, and then when I finally went we just hired a car and went to lots of Saturday inspections that I'd chosen as potential IP's across 3 suburbs...

Thanks Propertunity, that will come in very handy for this and future IP research! Also, thank you Of The Vultures, I just spoke to a property manager in Glenorchy who said it was unlikely a 2-3 bedder house in the $230 to $250 rent p.w. range the Chigwell area would sit vacant for much longer...

Hi Everyone, Just wondering if anyone knows what the rental demand in Chigwell and Berriedale in Hobart is like? I want to buy an IP there but can't afford to have vacant for any long periods.
