Ever wondered if a certain city has reached its peak, or if another has finally bottomed?

Well, we’ve calculated the average LocationScore for Australia’s 20 Most Significant Urban Areas over the last 3 years and we are very excited to share this with you!

What do we do when we've got access to all these big data? Let's check out the best and worst performers over the last 36 months! This report shows what a good market's profile looks like compared to one that performs poorly. In other words, investors who purchased in the top three locations were likely to cash in quite some growth and investors who purchased in the lower suburbs, would've seen very little movement in the last 36 months. Find out which suburbs are featured in here today!

Ben Kingsley, co-founder of LocationScore was recently interviewed by Kevin Turner on RealEstate Talk on how did it come about and how does it work? Tune in now to find out more.

It's hard to visualise all the things that we talk about in our podcast and video series. Especially when it comes to analysing a set of data. That is why the LocationScore Lads have decided to share their insights and have a live demonstration on how it's done. Pre-register for this webinar here and we'll let you know when it's up!

Most people are familiar with rental yield. It is a measure of the rental income a property earns in a year as a percentage of the property's value. If you are an investor, this is undoubtedly one of the indicators that you want to focus in but what if you are an owner occupier? Will this matter?

VACANCY RATE.

Bryce mentioned this time and time again in keynote speech and presentations across the country, if you are an investor, one of the worst risk that you will face is vacancy. It defeats the purpose of buying an investment property if no one is living in it and that is why this variable meant a lot to supply and demand. Find out more in this Back to Basics Series!

Of all the dwellers in a particular market, there are only two kinds—those who rent their accommodation and those who live in it. The proportion of renters, often shortened to just ‘renters,’ is the percentage of tenants living in a market compared to all owner-occupiers in that market. How is this important to Supply and Demand?
