Eastern Suburbs Investor Dashboard
The Eastern Suburbs offers excellent options for investors seeking blue-chip properties in great locations.
Higher priced properties usually come with lower rental yields but better capital gains. Investors remain active across the region, with many diverting money away from shares and also buying through self-managed super funds (SMSF).
Local investors seem less concerned with the banks’ tighter lending criteria and more concerned by prospective changes to negative gearing.
