Carrum Downs

You know, go for it.

Uh, Vantare, they're in Carrum Downs.

Right.

Check 'em out.

Yeah.

Uh, Rod's in Carrum Downs.

He wants to...

I don't know what he wants to do, but I think Nathan Buckley's on his, on his mind.

We look in the media right now, Melbourne's a horror show, Victoria's a horror show around growth, but we're seeing different things on the ground.

Yes, Melbourne is not going well, but I spoke to an investor two weeks ago and we had a case study of two properties we bought for two investors back in 24, one in Carrum Downs, one in Taylors Lakes, both under a million.

In the two years, one grew 12%, one grew 16%.

So there's been growth.

Um, so you get on the southeastern at the South Gippy Highway, and you get to, uh, well, Leongatha heading towards Inverloch and those areas there.

Uh, Carrum Downs.

We had a call from Carrum Downs, which is just outside of Leongatha.

So there you go.

The earthquake is, you know, uh, 200Ks, uh, out of Melbourne.

This excess water is playing havoc with some sets of traffic lights.

We've got sets out in fact down in Carrum Downs at Walsley and Thompsons Road.

In a busy spot there in Glen Waverley at Springvale and Ferntree Gully Road.

A long marine parade too in St Kilda at Shakespeare Grove.

Suburbs here, just highlight, but we're not gonna get deep into the data 'cause, uh, uh, I don't wanna be here all day, Lachlan, but let's talk through some of the suburbs we chose on, on the podcast 12 months ago.

We're gonna clip up and, and, and, and have the predictions there, but we had Berwick, Sunshine West, Ferntree Gully, Carrum Downs, and Lalor.

Any characteristics about these particular suburbs that, that you liked?

Let's take back and have a look at the clip and, and Reece's haircut, what, 12 months ago.

So those areas, if you start to forecast out over the next 12 months, I think are gonna get even more exposed, because not only now do you have a market that's flatlined and essentially, you know, in some instances had negative growth, the activity in there is almost solely investors who are buying a product that they're not going to be able to resell to an investor 'cause they don't get the same benefits now with the, the, the post-budget environment.

Lock on.

So the suburbs 12 months ago that we said into, uh, was due for some growth or we liked the fundamentals behind was Berwick, Sunshine West, Ferntree Gully, Carrum Downs, and Lalor.

Now, a lot has happened in the last 12 months since we did this episode.

The crispy chicken crunch wrap slider, a brand-new classic, is back, only at Taco Bell.

Four days after Debbie went missing, a farmer was inspecting the fence line on his property, which ran along Taylor's Road in the township of Carrum Downs.

It was a rural community about a 15-minute drive from where Debbie was before she disappeared.

The farmer was walking amongst some large fern trees when he saw what he initially assumed was illegally dumped garbage.
