Thanks for the info guys.

Ten- burner – I'm not really sure how to get hold of past sales reports, what website do you use?

I agree that people would want to live in town but thought that there would be lots of people like myself who want to get out of town at the end of the day and have a bit of room around them. A PM I know said most people wanting to rent properties like that are trades who need room for their tools and equipment.

I guess I would be limiting myself.

Catalyist – how could you be sure that a suburb will have a boom at all? Is it inevitable if all the surrounding suburbs have had their turn?
