Loca­tion and Onsite Amenity Drive Strong Demand at For­est Springs

Article from Media Release

Astute prop­erty investors know that loca­tion and acces­si­ble amenity are two of the main fac­tors to con­sider when choos­ing where to pur­chase either an invest­ment prop­erty or your dream home.

In Glad­stone, For­est Springs pro­vides both buy­ers and ten­ants with a unique oppor­tu­nity to live just min­utes away from Gladstone’s CBD in a well land­scaped neigh­bour­hood boast­ing parks and play­grounds nes­tled along the banks of Police Creek. The com­mu­nity also has its own shop­ping cen­tre includ­ing a Wool­worths along with a num­ber of spe­cialty stores includ­ing, Price­line, BWS, Dol­lars and Sense, Med­ical Cen­tre, Bak­ery, Newsagent and a selec­tion of new restau­rants, includ­ing Hogs Breath.

Walker Cor­po­ra­tion Gen­eral Man­ager David Mann, said it was impor­tant for buy­ers to do their research and weigh up the pros and cons of each neigh­bour­hood before decid­ing where to invest.

“It’s easy to be caught out by choos­ing a prop­erty on price alone, it might make sense at the time but it could limit your oppor­tu­nity to max­imise over­all cap­i­tal growth.

“The less expen­sive estates are often those that are in an estate with few or no local ameni­ties. This can mean lower price growth, greater risk of vacancy if you choose to rent and ulti­mately more dif­fi­culty in re-​selling.

“Hav­ing a major retail precinct within its com­mu­nity along with being min­utes from Gladstone’s CBD will have a pos­i­tive long term invest­ment impact for those who invest in For­est Springs,” he said.

Mr Mann said with the com­ple­tion of the Dixon Drive link to Kirk­wood Road, For­est Springs has become an exten­sion of the adjoin­ing sub­urb of Telina, a true dress cir­cle Glad­stone neighbourhood.

“Res­i­dents of For­est Springs enjoy a short drive to the city cen­tre, air­port, shops, schools and we are just min­utes away from great fish­ing, boat­ing and swim­ming spots. Every­thing is so close which means we offer so much more than any other estate and that is great news for both investors and owner occu­piers,” he said.

Plans are now under­way for the Gre­vil­lea land release at For­est Springs with flat res­i­den­tial blocks rang­ing from 600m² to 890m² includ­ing frontages rang­ing from 18m to 30m on offer. Many will have an east­erly out­look to the beau­ti­ful Police Creek or to the well land­scaped reserve to the west as well as an easy walk to the new Wool­worths and a land­scaped park which includes won­der­ful play areas and play­ground facilities.
