It has moved the Transport Accident Commission to Geelong, established the Ballarat GovHub and plans rail improvements to cut commuting times to Melbourne.<\/p>\n<p>This month, it announced incentives up to $50,000 to encourage teachers to move to regional Victoria. Further incentive programs may follow as the government looks to ease the pressure on Melbourne.<\/p>\n<p>Property prices are lower outside Melbourne. Demand for regional rental property is particularly strong. Following a correction earlier this year, the property market is recovering well across Victoria.<\/p>\n<p>Regional investors should consider their options.
