We agreed on the Seller paying the Stamp Duty as we were running short on the Cash (Deposit etc) to put in. If we reduced the price, still the bank would only give us 95% of the Purchase Price. So, we decided to go for this (which was actually offered by the seller). I believe it is win-win for all.

I am in QLD. I believe based on the detail information provided, since the land here is owned completely, it would be capital expense. Cheers. HS.

Portfolio Pl, it is a desperate sell but I believe that it is worthwhile based on our due deligence. Basically, the property can be sub-divided and is located close to Uni and the CBD. I hope that our due deligence pays off.

I am just meeting up with the Accountant to find the best way to structure the loan (trust or joint). Finance will be done by a broker or directly contacting the bank. Please feel free to advice.

I was kind of 50-50 to move or not but I believe that based on the information provided here, I should stick my current lender (CBA) as in the longer term it may not be worthwhile. I wish there were no exit fees (would make the decision easier )

Thanks Elka for confirming this for me. I read somewhere that if you initially settled the property as PPOR and moved in it & then rented it for less than 6 years than CGT is waived off. Brilliant !!

I really appreciate your response.One more thing, if I decide to sell the house after 2-3 years, will there be any CGT on it at all? Thanks in advance

I have calculated the difference and it seems to me that I will paying a lot more in the longer run. We have only one source of income which makes it nearly impossible to do any extra repayments after all the living costs. I think I will have to take a risk of waiting and hoping that we have 2 source of…[Read more]
