    Scrolling down to the recent sales, it sold for $225k back in Jan. So maybe the agent's not had the ad removed or the sale fell through (it has an inspection date for next Sat). The monthly average for the area (not sure how many homes this involves which could be very small) is just $210k.

    Those rankings are nonsense, especially when comparing adjacent suburbs. Eg How can Ormond be way higher than Bentleigh or Edithvale way higher than Chelsea? They're adjacent suburbs with much the same facilities - so they should rate similar. And it doesn't always work for suburbs further...

    I disagree. Even the inland parts of Franga South are walking distance to the uni, hospitals and Pentland Gardens. Plus the footy oval and the restaurant strip of central Franga. All parts of Fkn S will always be better than all parts of Fkn N. But I agree that Fkn N is probably a...

    Maybe the 'rear cottage' is a mobile home like you get in trailer parks or 'holiday villages'?

    Let's see if I've got this right: * You're busy * You don't want to pay a buyers agent * You want not just the best, but the 'best of the best' bargains without the effort * You want us to post details of cheapies on a public forum The problem with this is that if the deal's so good...

    Bear in mind that Seaford units are quite different animals to Seaford houses and there can be substantial variation between the two. And Seaford is a diverse suburb with many pockets and varying housing quality. Seaford units are overwhelmingly west (beachside) of the railway line so are...

    If your theory of values being depressed by 'shonky' Frankston agents was correct, then I'd expect rental yields to be higher in Frankston than comparable outer suburbs. This has not happened and Frankston yields are comparable to elsewhere. A sustained period of high yields would cause an...
