Response to: "Investors are destroying Moranbah".
Moranbah, QLD 4744 is located within the Belyando local government area, part of the Mackay (Greater) Region in Queensland.
I'm looking to build an Investment property in Moranbah. But I might pass on as I don't want to be judged as greedy investor. Can I build a house for $700.000 and rent it for $400 p/w. No I can not. Why? Because it would cost me about $35.000 per year out of my pocket to sustain the interest rates. But maybe I folk $35.000 per year hoping that the house appreciate 10% or so, in value every year for the next 5 years or so. In this case I, the investor should make about $30.000 after interest rates paid. What if mines are closed down or global unpredicted changes arrive in the future? Who would buy back the house for $700000 from me? What if the house value would not appreciate in it's value? Who thinks I can donate $30.000 a year to somebody who will be renting the house from me? and then sell it after 5 years for devaluated value of $300.000 or so? Buying house in Moranbah can be a huge risk. Who can say here, honestly that investment risk should not be paid with a higher potential dividends? The question remains; should I invest in your city and provide more accommodation for you people? Would you call me GREEDY INVESTOR?
