Just a note that the new loan is with CBA, not NAB, as I mistakenly typed in the first sentence.I might just put it all in, I don't think it's something I can hide.GSJ

Interestingly I've compared the number of 'active users' on this forum on several evenings this week, with Somersoft and Invested. I'm seeing numbers averaging 70-90 on Somersoft, compared to 20-30 on Invested and 10-20 on PI.com!I find Somersoft far, far better. Invested is good for managed funds…[Read more]

Also Coode Island. I rang the council and there does not appear to be any intention to relocate this facility?

I pay 5.5% (inc. GST) and 2 weeks rent is the letting fee for new tenants. Advertising is free (internet sites X 4). Also $3.25 per month for rental statement. That’s basically it. Inspections/condition reports free.

I would probably do it separately to keep the end of year accounting simpler/less confusing.

The interest on investment loan is alreay tax deductible. The salary packaging is a bonus because of your employer! Use the salary packaging for other expenses eg, rent, credit card payments, home mortgage payments etc…but not for the interest on the investment loan,…[Read more]

I agree, that’s important.

But, still, any professional in any field must be accountable to somebody. In whatever way, eg. accreditation, licensing, a professional body, etc…

I think the PIAA organisation is a good thing.

The course is certainly a step in the right direction, in that, it attempts, in part, to provide some minimum standard of qualification for those in the industry – ie, of providing property investment advice.

But, it has its flaws.

I heard about this course some time ago…[Read more]
