    Best way to split block into three

    For the developers and creatively minded out there, what would be the most efficient way to split this block into three. Corner block. About 720m2 in total. Assuming the top of the page is north, access to the plot is along the northern and western faces via a road running along those edges.

    Lane Cove

    Seems like it didn't sell in October, just March last year. Interesting to see what it fetches a year later. Think I will wander down to the Auction and be nosy!

    Which one? Redcliffe, Brighton or Slacks Creek

    I bought in Redcliffe in February, after flying up from Sydney and having a look around. The town centre is pretty decent and just down the road Scarborough is a very nice place. I liked the vibe there, so took the plunge. Overall, I'd say Redcliffe has some decent potential, and there...

    Investment Advice Needed - Melbourne

    You cant squeeze an extra $50k and buy 3 in Frankston North on 600m2 blocks for $250k each? You'll get around 5% rental yield, there's subdivision potential and you'll reduce the 400-500 monthly holding costs.
