Hi kay
It will never have the reputation that coastal areas or capital cities do.

Hi Guys
Portland isn’t the only area that is having some fantastic things happening, do some investigation, i’ve been trying to tell you guys for years that there is huge capital growth prospects outside the Capital cities, but saddly the idea that Melbourne and Sydney are the only places to invest continue to be believed.

Hi Rotorog
i’m with property Guru on this one, you must get cash positive but buy in areas that you expect (not just hope) to get some capital appreciation. It has been possible in the past to buy cash positive and have higher capital appreciation than the so called growth areas that Wakelin etc insist on.
No one knows what will happen in the…[Read more]westan replied to the topic WHERE TO INVEST in the forum General Property 20 years, 3 months ago

Hi Derek
if you look at the longer period say 25 years property still outperforms shares but the gap is closer.
I’ve been buying shares for twice as long as property, while i like shares i love the profits that i make in Property, thats why i invest to make money.
