Canberra has a great web site for real estate. The AllHomes site has the ACT well and truly covered plus a few surrounding areas of NSW. This is a particularly good resource and I recommend you have a look at it.
There are a lot of rubbish sites on the web that are used for real eastate, and some are so annoying to use but you often don't have an alternative. In Melbourne I couldn’t find a decent web site that covered everything in the area I was looking in. Oh sure, there are web sites that list lots of properties, but the trouble is that with the sites I’ve used either their search engines don’t work properly or they have been designed to include a lot of unnecessary listings. For example, if you want to search for properties for sale, say, in Bayswater in Melbourne you would enter Bayswater in the search box. A reasonable request I would have thought. But these horrible web sites are likely to return a listing of properties including St Kilda or Queensland as well as Bayswater. With the AllHomes site, you select the suburb and it comes up with the listing, no more, no less. It also includes various maps that are excellent in locating properties that you’ve just got to see to believe.
Anyway, I spotted a couple of rental properties that looked good. I drove past them after work and there is some potential there. Next step: catch up with the elusive real estate agent and have a look inside.
