Thanks guys!! We were edging towards ip first because we won't be here long, we plan on going back home (around Canberra) when we are done with the money chasing. We are hoping to build up some properties over the next few years. Thanks so much for your advice we appreciate it

Thank you for your replies everyone. There is not much happening in the town we haven't been here long so don't know it like 'home' yet but I do know that when looking at houses to rent the real estate was actually contacting me to see if I was still interested etc  I take that as a bad sign normally I'm harassing them!! 

We are saving about $1500/wk at the moment by Xmas will have 10% deposit for a house here but we are leaning towards investment since we don't know area very well yet and do move around to where the $$$$ is we haven't stayed in a location longer then 18 months. We are completely debt free and we are capable of saving even more then $1500/wk but we understand the 5 kids (hand brakes lol) and our rent really pull us up on what we would be eligible to borrow.
