It is all about timing, if the property was bought within last few years at a very high price then it is difficult to make a profit in a short term.

Originally posted by C2:Sorry one-step, Perth is not my area of expertise. How did you arrive at your figure of 300K?
In perth the average price of houses is under $300k, so I guess if I want to buy a house, I need to have that amount …

Originally posted by DD:do you want positive cashflow or just a property somewhere?
$300k gets you 2 x 3 bedroom units in a complex in Medina with great capital potential and less out of your pocket now and in the future.
Houses have no body corp fees so they are cheaper $$ for $$ and get better appreciation over time due to land component.
What are you looking to achieve from investing and how will the $300k rate for long term.
Answer these and you will be better at guiding yourself than getting a “go here ” or “go there” from us. After all, its your investment.
