Min 2 Beds, max 3 with a swimming pool, not on an estate with a bit of land all for around £150,000 depending on the exchange rate $3-400,000

Don't mind a bit of work or renovate if I don't have to live in it while we do it.

Just done that here, scaping the plaster and cement off a surface before making a sandwich Can lagh now but hard going at he time.

You shouldn't have too much trouble finding something not half bad for that money. Shouldn't worry too much.

Friends of ours have just bought a nearly new 4 bedroomed house in Upper Coomera, with an above ground pool ( fitted in nicely) for around $350,000.

Might be a bit more expensive in the Mudgeeraba area. Bonogin is nice but a bit way out for teenagers etc
