We’re thinking about using our profits from the stock market to get into the property renting market in Brisbane.

We can buy something quite nice, close to the city centre with the money we’ve made.

Here are a couple that we’ve looked at. The first has three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a separate toilet and is priced at $339,000 (£135,000) .

The second has two bedrooms and two bathrooms and is priced at $315,000 (£126,000).

There’s nowhere in the UK you can get houses like these, within a couple of miles of the city centre at prices like this.

We’re looking into the tourist market vs the longer term rental market.

The tourist market is more lucrative but there’s more hassle - people coming and going every few days. The longer term rental market looks easier.
