What did the crust of the article say?

Hi Chris
the article provided a comprehensive report on each State and what has been happening over the last 12 months, listing top performing areas and 5 year averages. Predictions as far as property goes over the next couple of years, due to various factors ie infrastructure, pop growth.

There were also comments from various experts on each State and regional hot spots to watch out for. One mentioned by Ryder was Magnetic Island, QLD, providing detailed info on this area.

Current housing fatigue has grippled the big cities though they believe the resource boom, infrastructure projects and migration flows are still throwing up some good opportunities.

I was particularly interested in Coburg, Melbourne as there is around $1Billion in projects/redevelopment (2030 plan) underway. This area was highlighted as having good prospects for further growth.

Much more info in magazine. If you are after anything specific I may be able to help/elaborate, though I recommend you purchase mag, good read.

Cheers, AL
