We seem to be in a similar position to yourself - we like Perth, can't (don't want to) afford coastal areas so are looking one or two suburbs in away from beach front but yet near enough to go to the seaside... From our experience/research we understand the situation re: house prices as follows - having visited there twice before in 2004 & 2005, we certainly have seen prices shoot up unbelievably! Looking at sites like Reiwa today is depressing in terms of what we want to spend vs what is adverstised but as someone else posted on here the other day, Reiwa et al are interested in keeping prices high - that does not mean that's what the houses are selling for. Plus the recent raise in interest rate and comments about many houses in various suburbs on sale (not selling as fast) suggests that the market is cooling down/stabilising. That gives us hope that by the time we get there later this year, housing in areas desirable to us will still be an option for us. As for desirable areas - that's a personal choice - for us the governing factor is good schools for children (catchment areas) & distance to work (most likely Perth CBD). As I understand it Perth suburbs are designed for the convenience lifestyle ie every other amenities like shopping malls, libraries, etc are near enough ie you see these every few miles. Does anyone know of a website, similar to the land registry in the UK, that shows you ACTUAL prices of sold houses in different suburbs? I am sure its out there - I just haven't found it yet! That would be a better & realistic indicator of house prices I suppose... |

I like the suburbs like mindarie,hillarys & ocean reef as i have seen them and i like the area, however i want to just broaden my search in the suburbs but since i havnt seen any can anyone reccomend any with the same sort of criteria (location, house price etc) as mindarie and ocean reef areas thanks vik |

mind you though, perth is like one of the only places where you can be a 20minute walk from the nearest beach, and a 20minute drive from the nearest city, thats probably the concept that won me over in the end, best of both worlds
Whether you could afford the property in question is the real issue. ;) |

Actually in every state capital (except Brisbane) you can live within a 20 minute walk to the beach and a 20 min drive to the city. That includes Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Hobart and Darwin as well as multiple regional cities.
