Areas within Williamstown for tomorrow (Sunday 04/09)???
 

We're in Melbourne validating visas and doing a bit of a look around. Went looking at 'burbs today - did Mordialloc, Brighton, Hampton, St. Kilda East, Caulfield - but they all look much of a muchness when you just drive around the main street and a few residential streets, and you don't get any feel for what living there might be like.

Tomorrow we've decided to have a look a Williamstown. Can anyone give us a bit more focus on where to go to get a better feel of the place - and perhaps even down to recommended streets to have a look at? Had a look on the estate agents sites and it looks expensive, but I know a few on here have mentioned it, so I guess there must be affordable areas too?

Cheers

Phil

Errrm, You need 500,000 Aud just to buy into the basic acceptable place in Willy. Personally I love the place, but It's not worth that.

You can get all the atmosphere and more, living in most inner Northern suburb parts of Melbourne, at about 10-15 pct or more less.

Why buy a place on the fringes of Willy, well within 15 mins drive even, like spotswood or newport. for 380,000 aud, when a place within 15 mins of Carlton would cost you 320,000 and possibly go up even faster.

Tip look at Fawkner, and Glenroy ;)

both inner city, and the last inner city places to hit the property bubble.
