    Melbourne inner west house VS St Kilda/Elwood apt?

    inner East apartments are a good option as long as they're on a street with little to no other apartment blocks and in an area that is not pro-development. To avoid the over saturated areas stay at least 2km out of the CBD :)

    Ugh just out of reach at 48sqm... banks don't like smaller than 50 so it's a no. But otherwise it's a great area of Prahran!

    Interesting choice. I know that building due to working close by. There are some good points like it's proximity to the city and trams. On the other hand it's in between two very busy roads, in a pro development area, in a mixed use zone, there are 121 units most of which are identical, the...

    Correct; challenge you to find a better 1 bed, 1 bath, with outdoor area, car park and storage for equal to or less than 500K.... actually to make it easier for you maybe 550K? Up for it?

    You're right jackbak. All of the above were PPOR that would be IP's later in life; hence the compromise. We're very confident that these properties will serve well in time :) Correction: sorry 5 Lewisham is solely an investment, sorry. PS - 5 lewisham ticks all the investment boxes

    Completely agree with your point Y-Man; and as economist Dambisa Moyo would say "let the inherent, internal battle between investor and owner ensue."
