Looks tidy but what in the name of god is that thing on the roof? If that's the air con, it's huge

Margaret3

harsh, but i have to agree

Margaret3

lol, i know, and there was about a million people viewing it, believe me its a good deal in melbourne, we wont bid on it, leaving things till after xmas, but if i get summit like that for that price in that location i will be appy as a pig in shit. When viewing i felt quite sad, you could almost feel the poor old dead person there

Try Hampton East, Brighton East, Cheltenham, Highett for near beachside and prices a little lower - train to CBD about 25 to 35 mins - good sites to start on are www.domain.com.au and www.realestate.com.au

Quite a few properties for rent at the moment as people are renting out rather than selling.

I hate it when they say deceased estate or divorce forces sale. Leaves a nasty taste in the mouth

Margaret3

yeah, yea , so do i, but was wondering if they could throw the fantastic 'tallbboy drawers', in the sale, now come on MP you gotta be practical, lol

I have owned about 8 properties in the UK and everyone was a deceased estate - they can be one of the best ways to make money on property, particularly if you can do a lot of the work yourself.

Throw them somewhere, along with that chaise and the bed with the drawers stuck on the side.

pmsl, i loved the drawers eeeeeeeekkkkkkkkk am turning into my mother

moneypenny20

As long as I don't turn into mine, I'll be happy

Why not try the other way Ascot Vale, Pascoe Vale, Moonee Ponds, Northcote, Cllifton Hill or Rosanna, Bulleen, Ivanhoe. Ascot Vale is close to the city and close to the major hospitals, Childrens, Royal Melbourne, St Vincents, Freemasons, Eye and Ear.

Rosanna way its close to the Austin Hospital.

Hospitals on the other side which have been mentioned are The Alfred which is close to the CBD, Monash Medical Centre much further out Dandenong Hospital, Frankston Hospital, Berwick Hospital these are the public hospitals.

How about West side? Williamstown, Newport, Altona Beach are all on train lines (30 / 40 minutes to the city), all near beaches & sea. Rent isn't too much and you'll get a reasonable place with room to store your bikes.
Williamstown is the least hoony, and most expensive, but also by far the nicest. Older style houses in the centre of Willie, but lots of restaurants, pubs, supposedly decent schools etc.

Some modern houses on the new development in North Williamstown. 3 beds for less than $500:
