    Hi There,

    Congrats on taking the first step to creating your investment portfolio. If you go to PRD Nationwide Research you can look at all areas and obtain free research data. That way you can look at the growth for the area, industries and infastructure, demographics and rental market returns. Maybe you could start with realestate.com.au andjust look at the different areas for sale and rental values and then fine tune it from there. I guess it really comes down to how much you want to invest as that will determine the area you invest in. <moderator: delete advertising>

    Hey, congratulations on your first (potential) investment.  Melbourne I find is a pretty safe bet. Just look at the eastern suburbs. If your rich (like 1-2mill? I’d suggest looking somewhere along Kew.

    Here’s an article on hotspot places though (hopefully this will help you). Good luck!

    Really depends what your ultimate goal is. Don’t get me wrong, capital growth is great to look for, but you need to be able to cash flow your purchase to get the growth, so cash flow is very important too”
    Plenty of those numbers look good historically, they aren’t crystal balls, and really you need to be looking for areas that have the 3 key factors.
    Infrastructure, government spending and population growth. These are the 3 key factors that drive growth and in the righ areas we have seen amazing income also, so you can cash flow the property comfortably enough to be able to hold onto it long enough to make the growth.
