Cross post from my thread (
http://somersoft.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1201298) into this one which is in a more appropriate forum (hope thats ok) -
Recently purchased a place in Florey - Settled July 25th. I negotiated access before settlement to show potential tenants around. Its a 4 bed + GF. I managed to have 4 separate tenants in the house and the GF tenanted all on settlement day..ridiculously easy...
Receiving
$240 p/w for master bedroom (+ ensuite + walk in robe)
$185 for bed2 (+ ensuite)
$160 for other 2 bedrooms
$260 for GF
I'm not sure if its because the property presents well and has a "new" feel about it (despite being built in 1984) or because maybe the rental slump has bottomed out. Would like to hear other IP owners views on the state of the market in the last few months.
