It also presents a number of advice opportunities. https://www.financialstandard.com.au/feed/latest?story=95097691 Tue, 09 May 2017 23:58:30 +1000 Tue, 09 May 2017 23:58:30 +1000 en-AU Copyright 2026 Financial Standard 5 Comment by Simon Disney (Bendigo Bank) There's a good chance the 'Downsizing Concession' will see increased interest in property in regional towns and areas with great healthcare, like Canberra, Bendigo, Geelong, Orange, Armidale, Gold Coast, Newcastle, Wollongong and Port Macquarie. The oldies like to live close to their kids... but it may be the case that the kids who are locked out of the property market will move to regional areas too with house prices the way they are in the East Coast capitals. Happy families and new life in the regions? Could be.... As long as the Internet connection, healthcare and work opportunities are great. Hmmmm.... No traffic snarls, a house and big garden with a workshop/garage... very appealing for some in retirement!
