I've been lurking for a while and posting once in a while for the last couple of years.
I'm looking at the Geelong area for some quality buy and hold units or houses. My strategy is buy and hold close to amenities in capital or major cities. I'm happy to hold slightly negatively geared properties if there is CG potential.
I'm doing some research prior to visiting and having a look around. I'm looking to spend around $375k max.
I've read many posts here on areas within Geelong. Purely based on online research I'm comfortable with Newtown, Bell Park, Hamlyn Heights, East geelong areas.
What do people think of these areas. Is East Geelong around St Albans Rd, Garden street sort of area any good or are there any pockets i should avoid?
I'm hoping people that live in or know the area can provide their thoughts. Any thoughts/suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks
