Auction result this month in Chermside (source: www.domain.com.au)
Address Date Type Agency Result Price
62 Latham St Nov-07 house 3 0 RW Chermside Auction - Sold $738,000
481&483 Hamilton Rd Nov-07 other residential 0 0 RE/MAX IntegrityClayfield Auction - Sold $1,130,000
Those properties are run-down houses with a third of an acre to half of an acre blocks and worth less than 150k 10 years ago. The super surge in value is due to local government rezoning of the area in 2002, making them eligible for units and townhouses development.
With the local government planning to improve Chermside centre further (link below), I wonder if anyone has thought of buying run-down houses around the area to benefit from future government rezoning? It gives you two options of developing units/townhouses yourself or sell off the block, both is sure to give you huge profits.
