Do you think any of the northern shore estates will hinder capital growth at all? There is a fair of supply comin on, i'm not sure how quickly. Some if the estates are just over 10km away and offer new houses. Agreed that the market there hasn't fine anything since 07/09 and is definitely...

Hey, Has anyone bought an investment property in Townsville? There are quite a lot of infrastructure projects planned or currently underway in that region (ports expansions, marine precincts, major roads and highways, barracks, hospital redevelopments and new convention center) along with...

An R60 block near Ocean Drive in Quinns would be a great long term play.

Mirrabooka does present great value. Not sure how much the northern light rail link delay has dampened prices. Are they still going through with that or is the Southern section connecting Curtin Uni taking first preference. Nice move Aaron. I think an ocean view home in Ocean Reef will be...

Rent appraisal for $510 per week. I wonder how much insurance premiums for flood cover will be as a bit of Oxley was under water during the floods. Probably slightly inflated land price due to being a new estate and having all the land agent advertising costs and other stuff built in to the...

I am pretty sure that these suburbs don't have that much public housing thy are affluent northern coastal suburbs. The cheaper suburbs one step inland in between these coastal suburbs and the freeway have all bolted over the last 2 years and have played a 'catch up' game. These coastal spots are...

So do you think 277k for a 375sqm block at the new ParkVue estate in Oxley isn't the best deal? The block price was raised 12.5k from the stage release beforehand as there was heaps of interest and land developer got a bit greedy imo. In your opinion is $214,900 a fairly decent price for a...

Thanks for the feedback guys. Had a look at the valuation sheet and there are house similar that are valued at 479, 487, 495 and 509. They do have slightly larger land components and slightly larger houses. Majority are older and none are in the new estate. Hey RyanMcHarg; have you heard...

Note: The bad valuation came from comparable sales where most comparable properties were older and there are also no completed houses in this new estate (ParkVue at Oxley) so nothing to truly compare the end value with. I wonder if this valuer took this into consideration at all or just...

Hey guys, I have been sorting out a house and land package in Oxley Brisbane which is 12km from the Brisbane GPO. It is in a new estate of 130 blocks in an established suburb. Good transport links, right near Oxley train station and schools etc. A suburb with some good growth potential IMO...

Spot on with your comment Sanj. MTR is a book of knowledge and has helped me heaps with my property purchases earlier in the year.

Catalina isn't a bad bet if you want to purchase up that way. The various Alkimos developments will definitely present some oversupply but longer term there is money to be made. You could secure a good rental return Catalina and it is still close to clarkson traino, ocean keys shops...

thanks westminster. Does it matter that it is an 06/09 version as dated in the top right corner? Sorry i meant building inspection and timber pest request form> to attach with my offer

Hey, Does anyone have a copy of the latest 'REIWA contract for sale of land by offer and acceptance' form. Also if you have any timber pest reports or structural building reports you can upload or send a link too? I have been searching google but aren't having any luck Thanks

Are a buyers agent's fees able to be put on the cost of the home loan? I was told they were but just wanted to confirm this
