Brunswick has come a long way since I bought my first house in Hickford Street for $168,000 in 1995. A house that was literally around the corner from my first property and located at 107 Blyth St in Brunswick sold for $1,435,000.  This was $85,000 above reserve, with local first home buyers and interstate buyers fighting for the keys.
