    My only advice as a new kid on the block is to hit the internet, research real estate sites and statistical sites that will give an idea on economic development etc and get on the phone to local real estate agents… after you’ve done all that you can make your own judgement on whether it’s worth investing in or not, or perhaps taking a trip there for a look. It takes hours and hours to do, but you’ll have gained a lot of knowledge.

    Hi, have done 2 trips up that way this year, and Gladstone has some huge developments happening. It is an export town, and there are billion dollar developments in the current works – 5000 new jobs over 3 years – that means at least 15,000 new people (family + infrastructure) – so the demand is there. You need to be careful about rental return thru lease back companies – they sound good, but you can do better.
    Good luck.
