obviously all things being equal you'd take 4 bdrs over 3
however, is 3 enough for the average family?
does the 4th bdr increase growth/rent?
family homes are fine. 3-4 in ballarat is rare in the inner areas and you pay $ for em.
1 bedders are common, easy to rent and sit around 125k unrenovated and 135-140k renovated.
you get people seeking 160k plus for apartments that dont ever seem to sell.
3-4 seem common in mt helen, mt clear, delacombe and alfredton: with a smattering on 50 year old 4 bedders in redan.
5 bedders are getting legs close to the uni, but a nightmare to manage if u get 5 students! (unless you live in ballarat), and you wish to do it yourself.
