3-Minute Talk: Ashley was in the property market for 33 yrs and out for the last 6 yrs.
 
They bought their first house in Grundy St in 1982 for $47,000 and struggled to sell it 9 yrs later – was bought by Housing Corp. They bought in Harris Street in 1992 and sold that for $104,000 (It sold last year for $955,000). They then bought in Grant Road in 2000 for $175,00, sold in 2016 for 345,000 and four years later it sold for $841,000.
 
Being out of the property market is not good. Initially, their rental was $350 pw and now is $580 but they did shift to a better property.
