I would just like to get a few opinions on this property.
I would be buying this as a place for me to live for probably the next 3-5 years and then look at renting it out.
(currently leased for $400pw)
http://www.realestate.com.au/property-apartment-vic-st+kilda-114182575
rates - $708
water - $162
body corp - $2,268
The property was passed in at auction a week or so ago. I inspected today and the agent has had an offer already, but giving me a chance to make my own offer.
This is on the upper end of my budget. I love the location and the apartment is pretty decent as well.
Unlike the other properties I have looked at I don't see much potential for adding value. But I would like to know if this newer style apartment still has potential for decent capital growth. I believe it would be quite easy to tenant, but probably attract a more short term stayer.
Any thoughts or input would be great, as I have less than a day before I will need to pass or make an offer.
Thanks everyone!
