This is perhaps the most important factor of all. A nice property in a bad location could prove to be almost impossible to sell and very difficult to rent out too. Even if the price is very tempting, we recommend avoiding investment properties in unpopular or undesirable locations.
A location can be undesirable for a number of reasons including:
Investing in the wrong place can cost you thousands of dollars.
Noise pollution in a suburb is an annoyance for residents, and even cause health problems such as hearing loss, high blood pressure, headaches and more. As a result, suburbs with lots of noise pollution have houses with lower values.
The closer your home is to a crime hot spot, the more its value will be depressed. High rates of theft, violence, hooning and other criminal activities in a suburb all contribute to lowering demand, which lowers the value of properties in a suburb
Without any nearby buses or trains it can be difficult for residents without a car to get anywhere. When a suburb lacks public transport, the appeal and value is lower.
Flood zones are areas close to rivers, in low lying areas or have poor urban drainage system that can be overwhelmed by heavy rainfall. Any property in these zones is at major risk of damage and repairs can cost thousands of dollars.
Properties increase in value when they are within walking distance to shops, hospitals and other services. When a suburb lacks these areas, it lacks the convenience will hurt your chances of renting or selling a property there.
Part of the appeal of a property comes down to a reputation. If people believe a suburb is bad and not worth living in, they will not seek to buy or rent there. However, reputations can change and if you invest at just the right time, you can buy low and sell high.
How much you pay for the properties you invest in will play a huge part in determining whether they turn out to be good purchases or not. We can provide you with an accurate market appraisal for any property you are thinking of buying, as part of our investment property services.
