We've located a pair of Maisonettes in Port Augusta on appr 1000m2 land. We inspect the inside tomorrow but driving past them, they seem OK. They are however located opposite the corner of a school oval. So not right in front of the school where it is noisy, but at the other end across from the oval.
What's people's experience with buying near schools. I know being close to schools is a good thing but what about right on their door step? Do you think it will turn renters off?
Also, the maisonettes are the last of the original properties in a couple of streets surrounding them. New development - 3 bedders - surround it, and the block next door is being leveled for another development. I'm thinking this is a good thing for the maisonettes value?
The reason we want to look at this pair of maisonettes is that they are very affordable, it currently nearly pays for itself with the amount of rent it is getting and it is on 1000m2 - great for development later.
We'd love anyones opinion of what they think!
