  • Colin Rice replied to the topic Convert PPOR to IP…Am I doing it right? in the forum Finance 9 years, 4 months ago

    Many banks talk to people of Redraw, and “Yes, no problems, you can just borrow the money back again if you need it!”

    I have had clients tell me that bank staff have told them that redraw and offset are the same thing. They clearly serve different purposes but if you have no understanding of tax law you may think otherwise!

    A neighbor did this course and she has done well from the info by applying it.

    All the best with the sale :)

  • Colin Rice replied to the topic Steve Keens latest prediction…. Is he right this time? in the forum General Property 9 years, 4 months ago

    Maybe he is, maybe he is wrong, again!

    A mitigant / strategy is to find quality stock that you can add value to and there fore create equity and as long as a tenant is in place and the rents are cash flow neutral to positive and I have cash buffers in place for the unpredictable then I am at peace to keep building, no pun intended :)

  • Colin Rice replied to the topic JDL Strategies in the forum General Property 9 years, 4 months ago

    That equals a property spruiker in my eyes. Also the one stop shop thing can work well if all parties involved are highly ethical and experienced and how would a novice investor know this? I suspect that is their target market – novice investors!!!

  • Colin Rice replied to the topic Is an Offset Account worth it? in the forum Finance 9 years, 4 months ago

    How much is the debt on the IP?

    Do you have a PPOR with debt?

  • Colin Rice replied to the topic Property Value in the forum Opinionated! 9 years, 4 months ago

    Get a valuation done via a bank. Costs about $350 or if you know a Mortgage Broker they may arrange one free of charge.

  • Colin Rice replied to the topic Is an Offset Account worth it? in the forum Finance 9 years, 4 months ago

    The ultimate aim in my eyes is to have an asses that has the potential to increase in value and also earns an income (puts money in your pocket).

    Like my accountant says, if you are paying tax it means you are earning money and there aint nothing wrong with that :)

  • Colin Rice replied to the topic Is an Offset Account worth it? in the forum Finance 9 years, 4 months ago

    Remember that any interest gain is taxable if it is outside and offset account. If in an offset account it is deamed as savings therefore your “return” is whatever the variable rate is. For example 4.17% variable isa 4.17% tax free savings so effectively a return in reverse :)

    Things have calmed down here so will stick to my own patch then.

    Cheers.

    Easily done via refinance to anther banks assuming serviceability is OK which isn’t difficult to verify in most cases.

    In regards to Benny’s comment about an MB being familiar with Emerald a call to the bank you are considering (made by MB) to check any postcode restrictions would satisfy that concern.
