Our household just runs on the one car. Looking to upgrade soon but nothing too flashy. We don't wanna forego another property for an asset that depreciates in value so quickly at this time in our acquisition phase. However, one of my husbands dreams is to own a ferrari so hopefully one day we will get…[Read more]

We are in the process of settlement on our latest IP and looking to buy 2 more this year. Be brave when others are fearful as Warren Buffet famously said. Do your due diligence and you can pick up some great bargains in this market

The entry price is a lot lower (can still get houses under $300k) and demand for housing from Gladstone is overflowing to this area pushing rental yields up as well which will help with cashflow. You would have to check the flood zones though. Pretty much okay on the north side and in Gracemere as Gra…[Read more]

We normally deal with our bank via email anyway because of the lack of a branch in our country town so I think it should be okay
