My $1,000 budget is for a bath tub( would love a spar/bath combo), Shower stall and some Lights… basically I need a low cost supplier I can buy these things from..
The house is located in Wellington NSW …. Dubbo is the nearest big Town…Does any one know a place that has factory seconds or cheap bathroom fixtures and fittings showers baths etc web site would be great.
thanksOk sounds like a plan …Marsh ?
who is that ? can you elaborate a little more please…Hi guys thanks for taking the time to answer
what I was after was one that would be affordable( cheap) and would have multiple benefits when I insure 6 properties with them.
Im with cgu on 2 properties at the mo but they dont lower the premiums for multiple policies.
thought some one might know of one that did, give a discount ,rebate on multiple policies or a cash back if you do not claim on a policy… just looking for the best bang for my buck
appreciate any help
nucopiaAny one ?
Good work RVP and keep dreaming learning and struggling to get to were you want to go. your on the right track already.
my advice is to look on this web site http://www.realestate.com.au (one of many out there)
get a feel for the area that you feel comfortable with and get to know some of the agents in that area.
make a plan and take it step by step
first choose several area's you wish to investigate
get to know the area and the agents that are in the area
Talk to them, visit the area and look at all the properties advertised also look at places that are closed up and not occupied ask neighbors why they are vacant . I found a very nice home like this that I picked up very cheap because the elderly owner had no next of kin and a need to secure his long term stay in an aged care facility..another time I found a home that was not on the market but was in limbo because of a divorce, once both parties realised they could get out of debt and stop fighting over the house in court… and by selling to me both would walked away with some cash before the bank foreclosed and they lost every thing . They were happy to sell at 30% blow market. and not pay commission to an agent…
RVP start here http://www.realestate.com.au
send emails and call and talk to the agents then go out and take a look around you may not find what your looking for right away, but if you keep looking you will find bargains out there. its just learning to recognising them when you see them…Remember that if you get unemployed, you still have to pay interest.
hahahahaha
I have not been employed for almost 10 years now and my property income has always surpassed the interest I pay. Its also left me with a nice level of accruing cash surplus. Funny rental increases are keeping pace with rate rises and demand for rental property is increasing all the time. Cashed up and ready to take advantage of the market mmmmmm make it on the up curve or the down it don’t matter With a loan to value ratio of less then 30 % and equity to borrow if and when I see the time is right and the opportunity arises.
Im unemployed and loving it!Psychiatrist
why keep the tenant ?
new PM and New Tenant !!! would have been the best outcome
good to see things have improved for now
good luckNice one
Now can you tell us the name of the clearance center PLEASE
much appreciate it cheersShrimpo
hold onto it and look at the long term picture , what you are paying out of pocket could be considered as forced savings.
by the time you finish your studies you will be on the fast track and be way ahead of your peers, Plus be in a position with employment to approach the bank to draw down equity for buying your second and possibly third I.P. in a very short time…
Your investing time now in an education and will reap the rewards for the hard work and sacrafice. Imagine how much you have achieved over the last 14 years ..
same with your property… invest some time now of which you have plenty of at 19 years of age and in a few short years you can gain a lot more then if you take a quick profit now .
look at it this way you sell @ 200k take out your 30k deposit leaves you 170 k then remove the selling costs GST early repayment fee 's and repayment of your mortgage If you think about it clearly ,you will be left with a lot less then 50 K.It means you need to call the agent and get the price

Hi Elka
Yes, I was also thinking to do this, pay 20% and borrow an IO loan for the balance and leave the money in the 2 offset account I have on my other loans.
I have 4 IO loans 2 x 98K over 2 properties still have 40% equity left on both. both fixed for 3 years.
1 x 48K still have 70% equity on this I.P and its linked to an offset account.
On my PpoR I have a 127K IO loan with an offset account and the bank said I have used only 29% of the equity from its value of 3 years ago… so I still have 71% equity left..
Holding a bit over 80K cash which I divide between the 2 offsets accounts Loan repayments amount to about 2K per month with the offset accounts…. rental income is $2,440 per month so I have about 400 monthly left over to save for Rates insurance and so on.
I still have one I.P with out any mortgage over it and valued at about 125K…
The Ip I'm looking at is only 70K with a tenant paying $135 weekly($540 Month) I can borrow 50K @ 8.3% with repayments of $406 per month and I will still have $130 left over per month( hopefully), after I pay the IO loan if I get it….
I was thinking , I need to structure things a little better to take maximum advantage of my situation….
I was also thinking to pay cash get the title and use both titles to draw down 80% equity from both titles for further property purchases ..still need to save deposit this way….
I,m getting a good discount on this one for cash , but I can still organize a loan over it if needs be..
???
nucopiaThanks Maree
I made an offer to the agent and its been accepted conditional on building and pest inspections.
Need to get these organized asap and find a good conveyance/Solicitor.
looks like a busy week aheadHi djac
Why not look for an I.P in Ararat Stawell or Hasham Victoria,for around 70<80,000 pay cash, find a P.M and start banking the weekly rental. Save the rental income and any saving from your job and you can use the I.P and your savings to finance your next purchase.
Start small with what you have and grow over time…
Good luckThanks every one
Really appreciate the comments, I'm not 100% sure what way I'm going to go with this,.
I'll need to give it some more thought be fore deciding .
cheers

You can find ip's now in N.S.W under 100K and with a return of 135<160 weekly . I know I just bought 2 in the last 6 months …
growth may be a little lower in those area's but still good for collateral with the bank later on.
100k i.P even at 8% per annum growth tied in with the positive income over the same time is way better then parking 100k in the bank at 8 % and paying tax on the capital gain..
i.P's give better tax breaks as well … just find a good accountant with experience in property investing.I have my eye on a half dozen places at the moment and all are around or under 100K. I got cash , so I just need to do my home work and decide if its a good time for me as well.
I really can't say this is a good time to go borrowing 300 or 400 k to get into an i.p that may not have the weekly returns to cover the monthly repayments with the bank
So good hunting and let us know how you go with it !
