    Purchasing in VIC - Frankston Area #2

    Thanks for your replies. Staying away from this one. Although the property is well under market value, I myself like a little bit of return to help with the repayments. The couple are in their 70's by the way.

    Hope someone can help. A house I'm looking at has a 'protected tenant' that requires them to pay 1.00 per year rent and it is a life long lease? Can someone explain what this is?

    Just come from 2 Auctions...1 in pratt ave frankston south....2nd in violet st frankston south. Pratt sold for 356k & violet sold for 730k. The thing that amazed me, was that it was a young asian couple (mid-late 20's) who bought both of them. Not a bad amount to go shopping with.

    Actually sold my house this week....it was only signed up for about 2 days and sold for full asking price (near Rosedale Gve). So very happy. But yes..some agents do up the value in order to get the listing. I know sycamore really well...my parents live on Lawson Av.

    Pretty sure Frankston has gone up around 19% since October/November last year! Quick gains. Funkytown is looking great...hence why i just bought a property, beach side of Kars St, last week. Bit of work needs to be done...but good spot.
