Hi all,
I am looking at purchasing my second IP in the next month or so and I was very curious to find out the thoughts of any experienced investors on this forum.
This is my dilemma, purchasing either an outer suburb property in Melbourne (Templestowe, Eltham) for 350k-400k or purchasing a low rise strata title 85-100sqm apartment in St Kilda West or a new apartment within an 8 story building in Port Melbourne.
My gut tells me that buying a low rise apartment in the bayside area of Melbourne is a sure thing however a property in Templestowe has the benefit of land and is not too far from the city either.
What do people consider a better choice for a investment? A unit/house 20-30mins from the city or a bayside apartment 5-10mins from the city?
Any help would be much appreciated!
