As the name western buyer sugest I live in the Mt Isa region. When I fisrt move to the Isa I was getting properties around the 60,000 mark that has now gone. Though in any market there are still bargians to be had but you need to be smart on how you go about investing out here. The market has risen a lot in the last couple of years but there is still room for movement. Though there may be some fly in fly out workers their are a lot of people who live in the town and need housing. Though the real money to be made out here is if you are a handy man as getting a builder is hard and very expensive (around 80 to 100 hour mark) so if you do a reno you will do well.
