One of my tenants agreed to rent because our property had security screens and deadlocks to external doors. Hint- good fly screens on windows and draught stoppers fixed to the backs of doors. Also, look out for reasonably priced coated curtains to keep out light/heat and keep in warmth.

I was the same until I read Steve’s book and found a better way of doing things. Many seminars tout the negative gearing line…so that is all people come away with!

I use a property manager, even though one of our properties is rented to parents of friends. I don’t want the hassle if it came to a tribunal meeting. I’m no good at playing the bad cop, and let the manger deal with problems impartially. Besides, they know all the tricks.

It took me a year to convince hubby we would be doing the right thing..can no longer rely on pension, want to be rich, etc. The first purchase was the most difficult..long hours house hunting, but once we made the jump, we were hooked.
