• Experience of youth and that must have unit in Noosa has now run its course
• Brought in a regional location with little capital growth, so unlike the Sydney example, 10 years of ownership has returned little, if any, increased equity.

So let’s take advantage of that wisdom and understanding to find a property solution that actually works for you in your current situation.  Without considering the short term fads and with the understanding that you can actually make poor selections in property, now is a great time to consider your wants and needs to find a solution that improves your current situation.  Perhaps your own property offers the stability for your family that a rental cannot, or the design that accommodates grown kids under the same roof in a blended family, your ability to use the current stairs and bathroom may also limit your rental options, even to redevelop a hand me down inner city cottage from Great Aunt Mable into a current housing solution.  All these solutions are required and none are options are on display in the great suburban residential developments where selling the “family model” without addressing what that family actually looks like, it certainly it doesn’t look like mine…..
