    Frankston investment

    Eview or any other agent will sell at a price that someone is willing to pay for a property and at a price that vendor is happy to accept. They also sold 5 properties at auction the Saturday before with 100% clearance (first for Frankston) and as I understand they were almost all $400,000+...

    Purchasing in VIC - Frankston Area #2

    Surprising results from Frankston last week: Due to 95% of the sales historically being achieved privately in Frankston rather than the auction format, the average success of the auctions is 50% at best. Last weekend half a dozen properties came to the market with 100% success rate. First for...

    Blowfor Frankston ?

    Do you just like argument for arguments sake or do you put your point across so that others learn from your opinion and give you valuable feedback in return. Now look at your myth number 154 that you are paddling above. If I started out 5 years ago and could borrow enough to buy one Toorak...

    Blowfor Frankston ?

    You are funny.... And the best bit is that you dont get it. Frankston increased more than Toorak in the last 5 and 10 years. Frankston gets double the yield compared to majority of inner suburbs. 2 x Frankston North properties I bought side by side for $144,000 each in 2006 on 800 sqm each...

    Desired Place to Live in Melbounre

    How do you manage to look inside the heads of the 'posters' to decide if they are right or wrong in their choices or thinking. If someone says they would rather live in Point Cook then their must be a reason for that. For you to then jump in and start questioning those posters or their...
