    Hi Sally

    It's best if you visit these areas , if possible. We have been to Marsden Park several times as we have a vacant lot over there. Elara is a bit far from where the business Park is . Having said that , Elara is H U G E with many completed , under construction and vacant properties.

    I work in North Sydnet and missus works in the city so it's very far for us but it's good and economical if you work in Parramatta.

    Having said that , I am not sure if you will find a great H&L at $700,000. Last we checked , they were $850,000 + for a decent place. Decent being 300 sqm ( sorry I have low expectations ).

    I have no opinion of Riverstone as I have never been there.

    Good luck with your venture.

    Imitator.

    Before I decide on Marsden Park I was also looking at Riverstone as well.

    I've picked Elara becuase of its infrastructure/facilities that are more refined compared to Riverstone.

    For your budget of $700k might be hard to find something decent in both areas.

    For $700k budget you might wana look at blacktown surrounding suburbs like Marayong, Quakers Hill etc.
