Why limit yourself to NSW and ACT ? Geraldton, Western Australia is the best place to buy property in Australia, national property analyst Terry Ryder says. Mr Ryder said Geraldton was his top pick because while it benefited from mining, it did not depend on it.

"It's a very well-rounded regional centre with a diverse economy," he said. "It's got a major fishing industry. It's got a tourism industry. It's got some manufacturing.

"I was speaking in a seminar in Melbourne a week ago and I said if I had to nominate one location that would be my No. 1 pick Australia-wide, it would be Geraldton."

Geraldton-Greenough mayor Ian Carpenter agreed, saying Geraldton's diverse economy underpinned key reasons for investing there.

Real Estate Institute of WA president Alan Bourke said Geraldton was a "go-ahead" area and would benefit in the medium-term from the development of the multi-billion-dollar deepwater port at Oakajee, 25km north of Geraldton.
