Some of that will vary on your exact location.

Companies choosing new locations look for these key factors:Metro population over 1 Million: Companies require access to a large, skilled workforce and established infrastructure.Low Crime Rates: High crime deters both businesses and residents.Low Operating Costs: Companies prefer locations with lower taxes and fewer regulations to maintain competitiveness.Low Risk of Natural Disasters: Companies avoid areas prone to natural disasters that can disrupt operations.

What part of Australia are you located? 

is my primary home I live in it, the purchase price for the house was $145k and I put 5% down when I purchased it. i been making 6 payments The house is located in Rockford il Most likely the answer is no if you only put 5% down.

Property was not incredibly successful as a short term rental, mostly due to location.

Do I need to choose a location close to home or farther away?

I help investors all over the metro locate deals. 

Location, location, location!
