    booboo,

    Type in the name of the location into google.com (australia only site).

    As in “real estate blah”. Or go to realestate.com.au and type in some of the general locations you’re thinking of. The latter site can be outdated, but it can let you see some of the RE’s in the area, and what kind of prices the blocks of units might be.

    The rest is up to you, booboo!

    Hi Boo Boo,

    I’d start ringing around to commercial real estate agents too eg Ray White Commercial, Frank Knight etc as this won’t be a straight residential property and most RE Agents won’t attempt to sell it.

    Lending as a residential purchase will be tricky too – St George may do it along with a few others but all at fairly low LVR’s.

    Good luck!
