The other side of this coin is that Mossie Park, Cott, etc with their public transport and commercial hubs are logical candidates for further infill. Good for investment of course but no good if you like to live on a quarter acre block, in a quiet residential neighbourhood.

...which is why you would choose an area like City Beach / Dalkieth etc which has a preventative R10 / R12.5 zoning.
my point is from investment, most POVs are from living.
finding the balance between where you want to live and a 'good investment' is generally mutually exclusive - but it can work.
i worry that a lot of people are going to have stagnant equity positions over the coming years as public transport continues to be underfunded and populations need it more and more.
the shiny appeal of the under-provided western suburbs - from a public facilities point of view - will start to hamper it's prospects as a good investment as they become a suburb - and nothing else.
increasingly this is becoming less and less appealing - but again, i don't make these comments from a personal point of view.
Unfortunately for the local nimbys the needs for the greater community outweighs theirs. The whole I'm not anti density just anti it next to me debate is going to be harder to defend in the coming years imo
terrible ideas, Linda.
I speak from experience with the Connolly Dr / Burns Beach Rd intersection being hell - but a simple ring-route peak hour CAT service could save more headaches than a stupid freeway extension.
There will always be choice HE, it will just become a more and more expensive choice, as it should be.
Agree with you that density should be applied at the correct spots but ultimately we can no longer afford to keep spreading out.
Do you know the Ellenbrook line, if built, would end up costing nearly $50K per household?? All because some ars#hat decided it was a good to create an entire massive community in the middle of nowhere
Cheers Tano,
Yeah r40....
ok so two storey might be workable. But single storey 3x2 would be a bit of a push by the sounds of it.
+2 - no argument here.
appropriate density to protect the remaining suburban character of Perth.
+3
Hey Aaron,
In my readings on somersoft over the years it has appeared to me that you need 728sqm to do a nice triplex.
There is a 699sqm triplex block for sale at the moment on a corner block. Would this be comparable to a 728 with no R.O.W. Etc.....
Cheers
