That's certainly the plan to involve him as much as possible : )

Benny I like that approach, it gives a sense of tangibility to it for the 'giftees'.

catalyst, interesting to note you've done this and it worked well.

i think we'll just need to do a spreadsheet to track deposits and interest rate changes over time.

Will keep the sink in mind too!

I definitely need to do a bit of work to build my case. It's an IP and currently vacant so I'm guessing they'll want a quick settlement – i'll be proposing 60 days though as our first baby is due in 3 weeks so we'll be a bit preoccupied!

Isn't the colour scheme lovely?! I don't know what they were thinking surprise

Thanks for those suggestions – a new shed of that size would be $5K (Colorbond) and the slab expensive, so I think it's pretty reasonable to bring up these points in the negotiation. Hadn't considered electrician costs, good…[Read more]

I don’t know that i’ve fully grasped the best way to structure the loans, and speaking to my bank hasn’t made it any clearer (surprise, surprise!)

Michael, you suggest releasing some equity in our PPOR to fund the purchase costs, etc. which…[Read more]

It's very helpful. I hadn't considered buying a property as anything other than joint proprietors – tenants in common makes a lot of sense if i'm in a lower tax bracket due to limited income/working part time. My initial thoughts are that we would use the equity in our PPOR for the deposit…[Read more]
