An investment in a marina berth makes sense any way you look at it. Australians love the water and they love boating - but in an area like Brisbane there is only limited waterfront real estate available. This is especially the case with new marina developments which must increasingly meet industry regulation and environmental concerns. There are only so many places where marinas can be built - and yet we are seeing enormous increases in recreational boating.
As with any scarce resource, the value can only increase!
Marina berths have been an intelligent investment for many years in both rental return and capital appreciation. If you own a boat, there is the added advantage of not having to pay marina rent again!
