    in Sydney there are suburbs called GHOST suburbs with beautiful new homes, several rooms but the suburb has absolutely no structure, they are far and no school, groceries or anything like that. Is that ever a good investment or those suburbs are doomed???

    No, but brokers will be absorbed forcibly by Banks because margins is declining and other players are coming in. Will be similar to real estate agents where sellers are using digital to manage their own. Its really interesting to watch the shifts underway. Certainly investors are about to be seriously strapped to a chair.

    You should be living in your car with a 24/7 gym for shower facilities and to charge your phone and wifi if they have it. Also don't be ashamed to ask your family for help. You're stronger together financially.
