Hi All,
Dedfred is back on line looking for property number 3. This time after much thought we’ve decided to make a lifestyle move and purchase a house for us to move into (currently living in a 3 br unit in Lidcombe). However, even though it’s a place we’re going to live in, I want to make the choice in suburb etc similar to that of buying an IP so I retain the opportunity to make some potential capital growth and utilise the equity in the years to come.
I managed to get a look at the Residex April report for Top 100 suburbs and found it rather interesting. From my modest experience in the property market I know that some of the key factors for suburbs to be earmarked to boom include items like:
• Current Infrastructure
• Proposed plans
• Transport
• Population
• Government future investment
• Schools etc
Saying that, many of the suburbs in Sydney’s West have been identified in the above report as boom suburbs in the next 5 – 8 years. Suburbs like Glendenning, Hassall Grove and surrounding have been predicted to boom; I don’t get the logic behind the report and was hoping someone can give me insight into these areas that I can’t seem to locate on the net.
I’ve tried to see if there’s much plan’s in the further for these suburbs from the government but haven’t had any luck locating such evidence. The current infrastructure is rather good with the recently redone Plumpton market place (Wollies, Big W, Medical Centre etc) and the Mt. Druitt Westfield just a 15 – 20 min drive away. I’m not too sure about transport arrangement in the area, given that I work in the city this is important so if there are locals who have more information on this area’s transport infrastructure or any future plans the government may have in relation to transport – please share.
My budget is around the $400K mark and from initial search’s on realestate.com.au it seems we can get a decent place for a family of 5 (2 Adults + 3 kids under 6 years). I will be looking at leasing out the property for the first year, so I wouldn’t mind getting an idea of the rental market demand in the area. Couldn’t find much information in relation to rental market online but I do plan to call some agents from tomorrow.
Appreciate all the help I can get in understanding why Residex claim these suburbs will boom and any/all information people may have on these areas - what’s good and not so good about these suburbs and surrounding areas.
Look forward to some quality advice as always.
Cheers
Dedfred
