little no no employment opportunities there is plenty both hbay and maryborough have plenty of jobs yes there not high paid like other locations

housing commission type estates I don't know where your looking but most people in toogoom own there home work from home etc Just becuase they look like the bogan type and they are at home most of the day does not mean they are not some internet guru,trader,millionaire.

crime well don't move to hervey bay brisbane sydney melbourne etc all have shocking crime rates as do several towns the same size or smaller then toogoom.

I have travelled along all the queensland coast toogoom is well under what the homes should be selling for some small beach towns 100klms from any decent size shopping are going for at least 50k more then toogoom stop selling so bloody cheap and loosing everyone including yourself money.

Here's a hint you investors selling for peanuts and loosing money hold your property until the market comes back up which is in the near future can't afford to hold

think outside the box

rent to own vendor finance etc not only will it cure the burden it will also help your hip pocket.

banks want huge deposits vendor finance the deposit part if need be

I have already bought 2 houses in the area for a $1 rent to buy option maybe you should think about this to...

Have just built at Togoom 2018 and there are some nice family homes here. Real Estate is cheap as is best kept secret!. There was we believe crime few years ago but thanks to a gutsy lady and police force were told many of the undesirable renters have been moved on. It is not a perfect world anywhere but seems lovely here and have noticed a lot of families are living here, as well. The pros and cons of anywhere is you don't know what your neighbours are like!
There will always be helpful sincere people whereever you live and the I don't know how to be a nice neighbour person which is unfortunate even if you are friendly. We live in Queensland and should be thankful that we live in a great part of Australia.

Housing commission slums? I think you're disoriented mate because that certainly ISN'T Toogoom. Have you been smoking something and got lost?
