Southern investors are once again eyeing off the Gold Coast property market with a leading real estate industry identity labelling it a \u201ccompelling\u2019\u2019 market to invest in.<\/p>\n

With quality properties at often half the price of southern markets, it was a good place to invest according to leading real estate identity John McGrath, of McGrath Real Estate<\/a>\u00a0who is currently on\u00a0the Gold Coast to host the 20th annual Australasian Real Estate Conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Mr McGrath said while Sydney and Melbourne’s investors had dropped off from the Gold Coast and southeast Queensland during the Global Financial Crisis, they were now returning to the market.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mr McGrath said yesterday the Gold Coast was great value for money and a market he was directing investors toward.<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of my clients that are not necessarily wanting to invest in Sydney or Melbourne I am still sending them north, I think this is still the place to be,\u2019\u2019 Mr McGrath said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the value for money is compelling, you can still buy properties here in some instances for a third or a quarter of the equivalent in Sydney.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Sydney now we are selling for $800,000 or $900,000 one-bedroom units and I look at that and I think well you can buy one for a third of the price of that on the Gold Coast in an equally beautiful location or you could buy a house on a canal for similar money.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Mr McGrath said the Commonwealth Games<\/a> and infrastructure projects in southeast Queensland had sparked a lot of attention and renewed interest in the markets.<\/p>\n

If you’re looking at purchasing an investment property on the Gold Coast, it’s wise to get a building and pest inspection<\/a> beforehand. Contact Inspect My Home today.<\/p>\n
