    Yes, that's what I meant, Trance. What LVR did you borrow? If you put in 6%, that would mean you borrowed 94% to buy the first property.

    What about Closing costs, I hear the average is 5% of the purchase price, so by these calculations your LVR should be 99, not 94, right???Also, if you tkae out a 100-106% loan the interest will…[Read more]

    If you pay part of the principle off when you come to turning it into an IP you will have a low tax-deductable debt. You may wantto buy another PPOR then and you will then have a big debt on that which is non tax-deductable.You can get an offset facility which you park your money in,say you have a loan of 100K, and you have 10K in the offset, then…[Read more]

    Richard, would a wrap like the one that you talk about be a good venture for a first timer in the property market??Coz a CoC return(of  16%) requires a certain % of deposit(so what LVR do you go for??)I'm going to buy a property in late 2009(first one) with a deposit between 25-28K, the property im looking for is around 200K with 5% closing costs…[Read more]

  • DraconisV replied to the topic Giving back the FHOG in the forum Help Needed! 16 years, 4 months ago

    Thank you everyone for your posts. I realise it is constructive criticism, so i am not taking it personal.

    You are true Kiera it is hard to get a foot in the door, but you are also correct in saying that we all want to suceed but not stoop to the level of fraud.

    Maybe being eligible for the FHOG later if i don’t live in my IP sounds good. I will…[Read more]

  • DraconisV replied to the topic Giving back the FHOG in the forum Help Needed! 16 years, 4 months ago

    Thanks Foundation. I’ll contact the office and see what happens.

    It seems like what I am proposing is fraud, it doesn’t make me feel good that this is the truth. hmm, if they can’t catch me(small chance) then why not give it a go.

    uh, i dont understand, i’m sure the ATO would take the money back, how can they not, would I be obliged to live…[Read more]

    Aaaah, a penny just dropped! I didn't realise that the $140k portion of the new mortgage for IP would not be tax deductible if it is then used towards PPOR. It is all getting a bit clearer for me now.

    Ok, so house prices won't fly with growth forever above income increases,Will house prices increases stay (sort of) level with income increases.E.g. if income goes up 5% pa, so does house prices, also what are the actual house price increases??Chris.

    Woah, Foundation(sorry don’t know your first name).
    Your throwing lots of stuff at us and you are kinda scaring the s**t out of me.

    I have also read your other thread here https://www.propertyinvesting.com/forums/property-investing/general-property/4322827

    Hi Chris,If you've saved up some deposit and you think prices might be too high by the time you finish uni, why dont you look for something Off-The Plan with long completion date…say 2 or 3 years?

    Hmm, Stumunro you say that some areas over the next 2 year will show good growth, what regions(not subrurbs) do you think will take slightly longer(i would prefer western, cheaper,200-250K properties) to get some growth going, as i will not be in the property market in such a short time as you have mentioned.Chris.
