    Hi Mackaz,[:)]

    In order to purchase a good investment, capital growth and/or positive cashflow is required.
    As land appreciates and buildings depreciate, it is hard to justify good capital growth due to the lack of land content in an apartment [unless it is somewhere like Toorak].
    One of the reasons positive cashflow occurs is where there is a shortfall in available rental stock.
    Melbourne has an oversupply of inner city apartments.
    Sometimes developers offer a rental gaurantee,however this is usually built in to the purchase price.Be very suspicious if this is offered.

    regards
