This week is the first of a two part series where Elizabeth and Ron talk to Terry Ryder, founder of Hotspotting an independent research and information company that provides home-buyers and investors accurate and up-to-date information on the best places to buy real estate.  This week he discusses the Australian real estate market and where the mainstream media gets it wrong; how big ticket infrastructure impacts on real estate values and the importance of doing local research before you decide where to buy.
