As we move toward the end of the year for 2014 and welcome the new year 2015, it is easy to reflect and assess at a glance that the Melbourne property market has been achieving consistent and strong results for sellers, though the buyers have equally been successful, being able to secure great purchase results that promise good capital growth potential and rental yield.
