    Cairns, House and land.

    When I walked in I thought "that's right, this is the place that had the cr@p music. I remember when I had not long been 18 and my mates and I went out for a night in Byron and the bouncer at Cheekys almost didn't let us in because 2 of us were from Lismore, 1 from Casino and 1 from Kyogle...

    Well, it seems I have been to the Woolshed before. It was so remarkable I didn't remember it the first time.... Made sure no food touched the tables :P Sounds like an old nightclub in Byron Bay called Cheeky Monkey;s where it was normal to dance on the checkerplate tables.

    Cairns, House and land.

    Recently I've been to a few events that have had talks from valuers, economists, local experts etc and thought I would share what I have picked up from the presentations. First thing being the composition of the economy and the perception that it's heavily reliant on tourism. The Gross...

    Uh oh! Function starts at 6pm and officially ends at 8pm and I plan on being well and truly tucked into bed at 2am so looks like I'll miss out on the fun! Ha! Noted - I won't accidentally leave weddings rings (or husband) at home :D I have only been 'out' in Cairns once before and that was...

    Nor am I - just adding to the conversation. Azazel mentioned the population of the region and I was providing the ABS data to match.

    One thing I forgot to mention is Cairns market is a little unique when it comes to land as there is currently more demand for vacant land than what is being supplied which isn't usually the norm. There's a small subdivision in progress in Bluewater estate right near where the new tavern is...

    Cairns, House and land.

    I would avoid anything south of the city as there's too much land to be developed and with Mt Peters that will certainly keep the supply happening for the medium - long term. I climbed Walsh's Pyramid on the weekend and looking down on the area realised how much land there really is to be...
