    just wondering if anyone is investing in rural towns as im looking at a positive cashflow property  but need some advice as if it is worth it in the long run with litle capital gains in the areaa. its $80000 and rents for $150 wk  but 9% growth where as i have found another one for $160000 and renting for $200 wk but 12%growth which would be better in the long run?
    thank you im only new to this and have 1 rental and a block of land

    thanks for al your feedback guys! what i mean is in the first house for $80000 it is positivly geared and i can get 2 of these for the price of one $160000 house which means 2 eggs not one i can sell one at any time and i can afford to sit on it because it isnt costing me an arm and a leg where as the other property will cost me more with average return i will have to pay more limiting my lending for better investments but i just wanted too see what everyone said as its a hard decision thank you keep them coming, by the way im talking about dirinbandi and stgeorge which mind you just went under water haha

    dont just take i opinion as i have looked out there and oakey and if you can secure a positive cash flow property then y not, you need to ask yourself if you are after capital gains or rental return?  you can ask as many questions about a suburb but when it comes down to it you need to invest in what u think suits ure posittion as everyones is different
