I can't see why you post in this forum if you hate Frankston?
Indeed, it is mandatory to own property in Frankston to post on this forum, didn't you know?
Can anyone ever really own Frankston? Can you own the wind? A sunset? The glint in your lover's eye or the smile of a small child?
No.
It is enough to admire Frankston, if from afar. To muse on its delights. To consider its possibilities. To feel your inner being being uplifted simply by the regular repeating of its name.
Frankston.
Frankston.
But what is a name? That which we call Frankson by any other name would smell as sweet. Frankston is property, property Frankston - that is all you know on Somersoft, and all you need to know.
LOL. Tell me you didn't light the bonfire to keep Somersoftians away from those flats so you could buy them both.
hey Spider, its easy to take photos like that in many suburbs, I can assure you that I have seen a rank arena TV out the front of a Peppermint Grove house here in Perth which is probably worth $3 million.
FRANKSTON’S biggest eyesore will soon be no more, as construction workers get ready to move in on the Peninsula Centre.
Work will begin this month on an $80 million makeover that will transform the ugly high-rise on Nepean Highway.
Owner Asian Pacific plans to build a 130-room hotel with associated conference rooms and a ballroom, a business centre and a cafe or retail facilities at street level.
^That will be great to see. Was supposed to be developed a few years ago by Jamie Durie & friends into luxe apartments. Unfortunately it never happened & I believe they sold the building on. It really is a monstrosity so I can't wait to see what they do with the facade. Of course, it's a big leap of faith by the developers. The area around it is absolutely appalling. I assume that council must have given some undertaking regarding the surroundings at street level so guests will feel OK walking out the front door. It needs to start somewhere.
Me too. Carrum DownsI'm praying for ripple effect (Franga Nth).

I can echo what Shionm says - Andrew Milne are great property managers. Although my two in Frankston are not being managed by Branko, they are being managed by Cathy Rhodes - who, in my opinion, is also excellent. As property managers, the team at Andrew Milne know the Frankston market well and will put an appropriate tenant into your property, conduct 6 monthly inspections without being reminded (letters are automatically generated) and manage rental arrears with minimum fuss! Rent reviews also happen automatically. (Computer generated letters etc).
Before I found Andrew Milne, I was with another agent. It was a disasterous experience. Cathy fixed up the whole situation, (including taking the tenant to the tribunal and evicting her) helped me organize a reno on the property concerned (in fact, she did all the chasing around of tradespeople etc!), and found excellent tenants for the property who have been there since 2007.

Attended the auction of 9 Lewis St Frankston this morning. http://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-vic-frankston-106796083
Super-handy location but narrow (10m) block <500m2
Much better street appeal than inside and rear yard.
If the house is to be kept at all it would not be a reno for the faint hearted.
Attendance approx 20-30, some of whom grew up in or owned the house.
Only one bid ($200k), which is lower than the council's land valuation of $210k.
The agent then had several vendor bid conversations with himself and finished up at $280k (which is near the improved valuation on the rates notice).
No sold sign 30 min later.
Let's say you can get it for 310k.
