What exactly is LL Insurance like when you look at a big insurer’s website (AAMI, SUNCORP, COMBANK) its all under a LL heading. My assumption is that LL Building covers the house/building and what you are calling LL insurance is regarding LL Contents insurance?

It is a house. And I would say I will be safe and get both building and LL insurance.

I have done a quick search and couldn’t find any recent post about this topic so thought I would throw it out there.

I have just bought my first investment property and it has come time to insure it. I was wondering if people would be able to share their experiences with different insurers be it good or bad? Or any other general…[Read more]

So I have approximately $300k to spend on an investment place in the next 2 months. I have been pouring over the figures in API and I keep coming back to Toowoomba (mainly due to me being comfortable with an area I know and having many properties within my price range).

I was just wondering where other people’s thoughts are at the…[Read more]

I think houses will be the way as you said with having more options in what can be done to achieve capital.

Thanks for the input guys :D

That is exactly the answer I was after. I did have that idea but wasn't sure if I was going to be better off with the tax benefits of the IP first.

I think its time to get onto a broker and get the ball rolling!

Cheers!
