Hello!
I'm completely new to property investment and really need some advice.
I would like to spend around 350-400k on a property, probably a two bedroom unit. I want to buy in an area that will grow over the next couple years as opposed to just having a strong rental return.
I've heard a lot about Merrylands as being a good place to invest due to the proximity to parramatta and also the new stocklands shopping centre. I've also heard a bit about Harris park? Any advice or other suggestions? Do you think these suburbs in the west will have strong growth or do you think I'm better off spending a bit more and getting something closer to the city ie burwood, strathfield or Ashfield?
Also, with the craziness of the current market (properties selling for up to 20% more than market price) do you think I'm better off waiting till early next year?
Any advice would really be appreciated!
