this is not a holiday town

If you haven’t been paying close attention, hearing someone mention Bundaberg as a place to invest might raise an eyebrow.

Seems a bit… off the radar.

Regional town. Rum, beaches, sugar cane.
Nice place for a weekend away — but to build wealth?

Most people's first instinct would be to move on.

But if they dug a little deeper they would probably learn a few things they didn't know.

  • It has the Second fastest economic growth in Queensland (7.1% in one year)

  • $4.2B in infrastructure committed over the next decade

  • Population forecast to grow 36% by 2040

  • Strong job growth and a push into health, education, renewable energy and advanced manufacturing

  • Their are major upgrades to hospitals, highways, marine facilities, and even an aerospace precinct

Here’s a recent example I came across that highlights the shift:

  • Dual-key home on a registered 900m² block

  • Unit 1: 3 bed, 2 bath, 1 car

  • Unit 2: 2 bed, 1 bath, 1 car

  • 2550mm ceilings

  • Total package: $844,594 Full turnkey

  • Estimated rent: $970 per week

If your approach was purely property and location then you wouldn't even see this. 

Not saying Bundaberg is right or wrong for you.

But when you focus on strategy first — meaning where you want to be financially over the next 10–15 years — instead of putting the blinkers on about where or what to buy, it opens up more options.
