    Hello,

    hoping everyone could provide some info on what to look for in a location. I have listed below what we have so far and would like further input to ensure we have our bases covered.

    Population
    Median Price
    Rental Yield
    Occupancy rates
    Percentage of homes rented
    Does the location have +ve cashflow properties.

    Any further input would be outstanding.

    Thank you very much

    Hey Elvis….

    Other thoughts….

    *Infrastructure
    *Public Transport
    *Shops
    *Types of roads (lit or not)
    *School
    *Police
    *Amenities both in the property and nearby the property (Parks, etc……Town gas, etc.)

    Here are a few more to think about

    Enjoy

    “TOP TEN”
    1. Warragul(including Drouin)
    2. Shepparton
    3. Traralgon
    4. Lakes Entrance
    5. Echuca
    6. Healesville
    7. Ballarat
    8. Mansfield
    9. Daylesford
    10.Bendigo

    Based on population growth(growth corridors), Proximity to Melbourne and existing or proposed freeways, Lifestyle changes for Baby Boomers(over next 20 years), destination or tourist towns, Rental occupancy rates and high rental $$ yields, Facilities and government infrastrucutre.
    Within all these the property should be close to shops, schools and in general CBD of the town. House should be in reasonable condition on a big block if possible. “They ain’t making any more Land”. These sort of properties can be hard to find, but when you do find one it’ll be worth it. Like they say, if it was easy everyone would be doing it!
