Hi RedWing Wooohoo glad to hear it :) Are you in the somerly estate, the ocean keys side or the 'original' part? The place next door to mine up there was listed on the weekend asking 300k. I cheered pretty loudly when i saw it :) -Kind regards Dave

Hi QL, Dont ask the Real Estate sales agents in the area, they'll only cater an answer in a way to make you want to buy something that they're selling. Ask multiple PM's in the area what they generally have on their books, what they currently have vacant at the moment and what they'd like...

Hi DD1, Kwinana is an area just south of perth, between Fremantle and Rockingham (mentioned in Spiderman's most just above). How long have you owned a property there? -Regards Dave

Hiya Depends on your goals. Decide what you want and when u want it by, this will dictate the answer to your question. Possible scenarios include: Invest in another state if you cant find any suburbs in your own state that suit. Invest in another asset class in the meantime if you...

Hi Peter, And even better located later in the year when the mitchell fwy is extended up to there :) I remember when Thornlie went thru the roof but have never really noticed Gosnells. I think Clarkson's good point is that it is surrounded by more expensive suburbs with Mindarie...

Hi Glenn, (long time no see) I tend to agree with those statements. However I still think that a bit of suburb fussiness is required. IMHO, the suburbs along/near the beach will always be favorable. Within the cheaper range suburbs, those that have good facilities (such as train...

Hi Ktee, Whilst I dont claim to know alot about that side of the river, Manning could be a good buy. Wouldnt get much change from 400-450k for a house tho from what I've seen. It's already had a decent growth stint (hasn't everywhere?) so who knows whether it has some left in it or not. But...

Hi Nick, Why dont you have a chat to Pete (a couple of posts up). He has made a nice sum down there. -regards Dave

Hi, itinerantotter, He said Morley just up there :p How bout yourself? Buying up the whole state yet? :) -Cheers Dave

Hi, Just wanted to bump this back up :p Whats happening people? Everyone stopped buying in Perth? :( -Cheers Dave

Hi not a sheep, Well done on the purchase. Hope theres a few more for you to come in the not too distant future. Regarding the independent valuer, where did u find him/her and what did he charge you, if u dont mind me asking? -Regards Dave

Hi, Beejay, c'mon mate. I recently purchased in a 4x2 in the northern beaches suburbs of Perth. You can do it too, get out there! Nickshinner: Yes, a few of us have met for picnics, drinks, etc a few times. Seems like everyone is really busy these days though ;/

Hi Slowdude, Thats an interesting list of suburbs you have provided. Were you moreso talking about houses or units with regards to them? The reason I ask this is because units in those suburbs aren't doing terribly well, simply because of an oversupply - especially south perth / scarborough...

Hi all, Rixter, im surprised you even went to school? :p Spiderman, I'm glad you had no trouble while living in Bentley. I know some people who live there who have been broken into a couple of times. The paper recently quoted it as the most burgled suburb in Australia, too. For this reason...

Hi, The Riverton Forum shopping center, and the Riverton Leisureplex aquatic center both seem to be fairly popular. Entry level houses seem to be around the $275k mark tho. -Cheers Dave

Hi, I think it moreso depends on what your goals are, and when you want them by. This dictates what one has to do to achieve them. If a certain property type in Perth happens to fit the above, thats great. If not, buy elsewhere like people such as Rixter have. There are still a few...
