    Not sure if this is the right place to post but interested in others comments around this investment opportunity ?

    Either this is too good to be true or I am not seeing the red flag ... hence why I am sharing to get others input.

    “Ipswich has recorded 47% annual growth in the property and construction sectors since 2001.”

    Using the “rule of 72”, 47% annual growth means that property and construction sectors have more than doubled every two years since 2001.

    I don’t think so.

    Interest seems very high - could kill the returns just on that factor alone in the current climate.

    You need to figure the "worst case" scanarios - what if rezone doesn't happen and you need to firesale the property (because of above high interest loan), cost of building, who, etc, etc....
