Been looking to get out of Perth as it's too hot to secure a property, and it's probably too late to start seriously looking at Sydney's west, but in looking at Sydney, i shifted my focus to more regional NSW towns with diversified economies i.e. Wollongong, and this led me to Shellharbour.
Therefore wanted to know if anyone is familiar with Shellharbour and surrounds (Barrack Heights etc). The areas I'm looking at are lower end of the market as you can get a 3x1 house for around (sometimes under) $300k, with rents of $350-$400pw - anyone have any experience around these areas?
These $300k houses are amongst $1m+ houses given the coastal location, which is one of the first thing that spruiked my interest. Also, Stockland is currently redeveloping the shopping centre to add a myer, woolworths and range of specialty shops.
