For me Blackwater is the next Moranbah, absolutely nothing available for rent atm. towards the end of this year when alot of rents will come up for renewal and I think we will see a big spike. most second hand homes atm are renting between 500-600, but with a paint job, carpet etc they will probably fetch for between 800-1000.

A similar thing…[Read more]

i would consider wandoan

I think Moranbah has flatened out and stay the same over the next couple of years. Blackwater seems to be the best performer this year with more upside as rents are rising rapidly. there is currently one property available for rent

my advice would be is to try and secure a corporate tenant on a minimum 2 year lease.

Blackwater has been going gangbusters recently, theres literally nothing available for rent during the past 2 months. The next Moranbah for sure, especailly with the expansion of the CSG industry. Bow energy is building a power station there which will push rents and prcies even higher!

don’t over analyse, no point taking 12 months to make up your mind then prices go up!
analysis paralysis can be an investor’s biggest downfall

bublles burst with underlying oversupply. australia has a 1% vacancy rate with approximately 200,000 houses short

3 properties only available to rent in blackwater atm

looks like blackwater is going through a mini-boom at the moment!

does that apply for all trusts?

awesome isn’t it!

4 ip = 700

best bit advice is not to stress, not worth it! secondly don’t over analise things

there is about 400 years of coal supply and 400+ of gas reserves. These towns aren’t going anywhere

wondering if the CSG industry will have a huge impact on prices in these towns?

moura and blackwater could possibly head that way. then you have alpha, wandoan, miles and chinchilla
what towns do you think?
