    The time has come,a little earlier than i thought, but we have made the decision to exit from tenant based real estate.I bought this place 4 years ago for $245K,why are we selling?Mainly the biggest hurdle at present is the APRA changes which have not/will not help investors grow their portfolios.My aim here is to release a considerable amount of money, to develop other property we have in Mount Barker & Christies Beach,selling new builds only,also with the SA commercial stamp duty concessions,this area also looks inviting.This week it goes live.

    May be top of the tree but why not.My view is property that side of Flaxmill Road is worth more,the turn n churn agents selling mid 200,s are not in my view doing the vendor any favours.Heres my logic,when i bought this,i was told $$270 per week tops,i wanted $300,i stood my ground with the agent who said i was wasting my time.I could have rented it to several tenants for that at the time,so i dont have much/any time for CMA,the whole house has been reno,d,if i dont get my money, it can sit there.At $325 PW its good yield.

    Unfortunately its the sorta suburb that has some discounted / desperate sales, and these always play on the figures. I think its done fairly well otherwise but there's a noticeable difference between good and bad quality properties there.

    Have picked up 2 rental managements there recently - one got a $250k well maintained double living area home that rents for 310pw and has needed very little maintenance. Another bought in the $270k range, rents for 280pw on a main road and has needed lots of work. Luckily, both were leased to elderly people who will probably be there "forever" and are very easy going.

    As i pointed out above,CMA goes out the window i think, also its interesting to see the same sale agents/franchises doing the turn,n,churn.Have to achieve the set KPI,s no doubt.

    Do you have any specific postcodes?

    What is your definition of booming? Is that greater than 0 growth, but under inflation (1.9%). This seems to be the media's definition at the moment. The Advertiser was calling 0% growth a boom, when of course those investors are not keeping up with inflation!

    Seaford and Moana seem to be down 3.9%

    Christies Beach is just 0.2% (1.7% below inflation)
