    Purchasing in VIC - Frankston Area

    Yes, I too would like to know the name of this agency. Out of 5 houses we've bought in the last 5 years, I know every agency around here and yes, they are all in it just for the money but there are a couple of agents who have impressed me in their dealings, who aren't so quick to lie, cheat...

    Purchasing in VIC - Frankston Area

    I'm sure I don't need to remind you, that what looks good in a photo, much of the time can be nothing like the reality. As a home renovator with house #5 around these parts (in 3 years), I pretty much knew (until very recently) every house/price/location etc... better than every agent I met...

    Purchasing in VIC - Frankston Area

    I looked into this property some months ago. It started around the $300K mark, and now has gone stale. Overpriced, no, just stale with a bad agency. I personally would be looking into central Frankston. Just settled on PPOR here just prior to X'Mas. Closer to the water the better. So much...

    No need to be sorry. Couldn't agree with you more. Frankston is a great place with soooo much potential.

    Purchasing in VIC - Frankston Area

    Frankston North is not for me but about a year ago, I told my mate (an investor) to buy in there when houses could be bought for around $150,000. He unfortunately didn't listen to me and now the house is probably worth $100,000 more. :rolleyes: I would think that anywhere at a price, is...

    Sorry, but can't agree with that. There's a bus stop to Cranbourne and another to Frankston within a short walk of where I live and easy access to the Monash Freeway by car. Sure, services could be greatly improved!! :D Not including Franston South (of which I think there are some really...

    Purchasing in VIC - Frankston Area

    Too true. There are a lot of houses under $300K, but many of these which I've checked out, are in need of lots of work, have one bathroom, or something else is 'missing', that makes them not suitable for us, as homebuyer/renovators. You will get some bargains, through perserverence...

    Purchasing in VIC - Frankston Area

    LOL:D It's TRUE I tells ya!!! I do it all the time at all hours of the day but almost never in peak hour, that's another story! It used to take 40 mins some days from Ascot Vale, 6 K's away.

    Purchasing in VIC - Frankston Area

    Langwarrin is a more expensive area then Frankston (excluding Frankston South), according to the stats, and from my research from living/ buying and selling in the area. Langwarrin is often mentioned in property reports as the suburb to buy in, and is a preferred option for families as PPOR...

    Purchasing in VIC - Frankston Area

    Pass on the property. IMHO. :) I know Frankston/Langwarrin real estate really well and had a house in that Karingal area of Frankston a while ago. Not far from Taketa Crescent. There's far better options for you at the $300K price point at the moment then a house in Karingal, (especially...
