Given up on affordable land?
Look at this, you can buy 1+ acre blocks in the South Burnett Wine region. Imagine having a holiday home surrounded by 4 wineries, Bjelke-Peterson Dam for water skiing and fishing, and just 2 hours to Sunshine Coast, Hervey Bay and 3 hours to Brisbane.
So much investment in the region with a $6M brewery and distillery being built at the end of the street. A boom in weddings and weekender visitors is seeing strong demand for accommodation.
Maybe this could be just what you are looking for to get an affordable investment? Or perhaps you prefer the more simple life with somewhere to build a shed, park the caravan and enjoy the clean country air?
