hi all, newbie here just wondering if anyone has much knowledge of the sydney market?
i've been living here 2 years (from UK) and now seem to be the time to buy, either to live in or as investment, or both if i can.
where i live in northern beaches (queenscliff) prices seem to have been falling in the last year but still seem high to me. i'm thinking that for investment purposes an inner city region such as surrey hills would be a better bet?
one thing that concerns me over here is that banks seem to want 10% deposits on a mortgage, which may limit me a bit, does anyone know any secrets to getting a better deal?
