Hi everyone
I am from Melbourne and searched for this forum as i am seriously looking for investment property. It's a great forum and there are some knowledgable and rich people on this forum.
I have got a property in Western suburb of Melbourne(St Albans).
I have about $150,000 equity and seriously thinking about investment property. I have done a bit of search but can't decide where to buy as i only want to spend around 300k on IP.
I have noticed that Hoppers Crossing and Werribee are one of the only few areas where we can still buy a decent property for less than 300k. I know these are considered rough areas but on the positive side the prices are still within range and i THINK there is potential to grow as most other areas have developed and HP/Werribee area isn't too far from the city. Some of the property prices are amazingly low for e.g there are quite a few properties around 250 k in Werribee.
What do you guys think????
Has anyone bought or considered buying in this area????
Sunshine West (another rough area) is also one my options as properties in St Albans have gone up by almost 15% in the last year or so.
Any suggestions??? (Sorry about the long post )
