Thank you for the response.

@ Benny: yes, we lived in property A from day one and even though we moved interstate and purchased property B to live in, we continue to nominate property A as our PPoR.

Just wanting to be sure we are doing this correctly, so any advice will be helpful. We’d have asked our accountant but we are in the middle of preparing ourselves to say goodbye to her since we feel we’ve outgrown her, and don’t feel right asking her at this stage.

Just sharing what we have learnt so far from our property investing journey….

A good mortgage broker is very important.  You need one who responds quickly and thinks outside the square, one whose first answer to an obstacle is "how could we…." instead of a straight "No, can't be done". 

Next, good accountant who is not only great at…[Read more]

We have started communicating with HIA. There are few options we are thinking of to resolve our issue. It’s just the repair cost could well be half the cost of purchase price.
Certainly has been a real good lesson for us. Thank god it is the one and only lemon we had so far!

thanks for the response.

We had a building inspection done before we purchased which told us none of these issues. The guy is nowhere to be found now. We didn’t know about the septic issue. Over these last 4 years we weren’t aware of the problem. We are told the waste had gone to somewhere somehow but not anymore.
