Yes, I did get a pleasant surprise on the capital growth side from Traralgon, and it's further aided by bullish comments from magazine and local newspapers. On the way to Lakes Entrance last weekend, I did notice that only Sale and Traralgon have decent weekend crowd, which confirmed a renowned...

I personally would stick to share trading and CFD for quick returns above 20%.. RE is not suited for quick speculative gain, more suited to "set and forget" due to high transaction cost. If you're looking for that sort of return consistently in RE, be prepared to get ur hands dirty, and buy...

our obsession has all the stats from valuer general, and it proved that prime suburb outperforming outer suburbs in long run is largely a myth

because Narre Warren North lands are BIG, we talking about acreage here.

it's possible.. just my opinion though. But if we look purely from demand and supply factor, Berwick is definitely in higher demand than Narre Warren and Cranbourne and Pakenham as it's considered a classier area.

congrats, and thank for the info, I'm happy too :D Can't wait to get my place revalued in April next yr, 12 mths from the purchase date :D

city of manningham, whitehorse, knox and monash has already gone up in big way since the beginning of this yr, and I expect the ripple effect from inner city suburbs to flow through again, bringing price to new high (esp. these places are the so called 1st choice entry points for new immigrants...
