But i would rather rent in the area that we are now living in something more suitable as my child is starting…[Read more]

Any thoughts?

I thought buying an investment property would be a good opportunity to do something better with the money than put it in a term deposit or something.

We just thought the iner west would be a good place to start as there are hospitals and uni’s there.

We realise that it’s not a glamorous area but inner east is very expensive.

As i’m currently on maternity leave we are using this time to explore the market and different areas.

Any other opinions would be…[Read more]

Thanks

We are getting so much different advice about this that it’s driving us insane![angry2]

I’m currently on maternity leave so a flat is more within our budget, we don’t want to wait too long to get started otherwise we probably won’t be able to afford anything.

Of course in the ideal world we would love to start with a house but we…[Read more]

What we had in mind is approx 6k’s from the city and a smaller block.

Houses are just so much more expensive that if we were to get one it would take us forever and by then the prices may be out of reach.

Does that mean that it is possible to do well with a mix of both negative and positive cashflow properties?

I’m new to this forum so i’ve never posted here before but i have a question.

Sorry if this sounds ridiculous but is it recommended that you buy a first investment property with a deposit or can it be done without one?

We have our own home that we are paying off and have a fair bit of equity and we were told that we could buy…[Read more]
