Sanctum in Mt Low is one of the best imo. Nice modern houses, wide roads with big blocks, close to Bushland beach but not too close where you get the sandflies. Lower crime too. Most of all, it didn’t even get affected by the floods a few years back. I remember helping people in a lot of those inner suburbs and their houses were absolutely ruined.
hey i lived in the #1 suburb all the way back in 1993-1995, way to go,im not even from townsville but had the pleasure to live in suburbs South Townsvile,great,Railway Estate,quiet,and North ward,the best,also visted friends in Vincent,Mundingburra,West end,the 2 H's and went to the gym in Aitkenvale i think it was,Belgian gardens was ok,Castle Hill too hilly and Maggie Is is stunning,free reef snorkelling
I was waiting for Railway Estate to join the count down. I know it prone to tidal flooding but it is just a hop step and jump to the v8 super track and stadium. I was hoping it was better than west end as I just recently had to make a decision on which suburb to purchase in
I would rate all your picks that are outside of Townsville like Bluewater & Black River & Jensen as #1, as you get space, peace and quiet away from all the damm crime in Townsville, plus you get away from all the morons on the Townsville roads !!!!
@@wildanalhazmi9003 It's similar but people forget to search for it so it doesn't sell quite as highly as Kirwin.. Unless you have an agent who makes a really great video and then they are pretty even. 😅
@@abhineet1655 There's old Oonoonba which has blocks that are over 1,000 M squared. I love that you can get a block that big so close to the city. It's very undervalued in my personal opinion right now... And then there's a new section called The Village. Blocks there tend to be much smaller. In fact, we recently sold a house that was on a 173 m squared block... Even so it achieved. $560,000.. The nice thing about this suburb is that it didn't flood for the most part in 2019 as opposed to Annandale and Idalia nearby. We will definitely cover it in our next round
What are your thoughts on Deeragun? It's near the shopping centres, its close to Burdell, Mount Low, Jensen and Bushy beach - all in the top 20 that you stated. Dark horse later on perhaps?
It's a tough one. It's a big suburb. The right parts of Deeragun are a good buy right now. There's some rough areas to avoid. Much bigger divide in that area between bargains and fair market price.. So lots of opportunity to flip at the moment. 2019: you couldn't sell a modern 4 bedroom house there for $249,000 😮
@@JT-zm7wz I would say that Deeragun is a suburb where there's still opportunity to buy Bargains as the market improves for regional areas in a national Housing affordability crisis..

@@elishabarclay2682 In the next round we will go over some Magnetic Island suburbs.. I wouldn't say they're the most popular.. but they are certainly some of the nicest places to live in the Townsville area.
Given this video is now four weeks old those median prices are way out of date. You could easily add 20%. That price for the Douglas cottage was way out of date. Those cottages are now up in the high 400’s-low 500’s.
@@julietorrisi727 The price we gave for a Douglas Cottage? That's before the rise. You're right. They're now $480 to $550k I will have to disagree with you on the median price. Median price hasn't gone up 20% in a month. It is still going up though.
23.5% is the price rise in Townsville over the past 12 months but I’m highly experienced in being outbid by investors by more than 20% above asking price with more than a dozen sales this year. So in some way 20%+ is a fair rise for anyone considering putting in an offer. Two years of tears and heartbreak here just trying desperately to get ahead of the game.

I’m surprised Aitkenvale didn’t make the list with its riverside properties ?
