Hi There our loans are interest only and are all stand alone loans. Can't increase the rent because we made two bad choices when we bought these properties and they are not in super growth corridors. We are already PAYG these properties.
Cleveland we owe 420K, rent is only $420 , we are out of pocket $320 per week but this does not include the variation rebate we get back.
Lemon tree we owe $174K, rent is $220, we are out of pocket $157 per week but also this doesn't include the variation.
Anyone in a similiar situation or has any ideas on what we should do??

Hi, According to my calculation, you out of pocket money should be much less than you claimed.
Your Cleveland property: Gross rent: 420×52 weeks=$21,840
Net rent: $21,840×90%=$19,656
interest: $420,000×6%=$25,200
Other expenses (water, rate and body corp fee) about $5,000
So your annual lost is 19,656-25,200-5,000=-10,544
Tax offset on you loss: 10,544 x31%=$3,269
Your real loss: 10,544-3,269=$7,275
However, because your property is only several years old, I guess you can get about $3,000 as
building depreciation.
So your out of pocket money is 7,275-3,000=$4,275 per year, that is: about $80 per week.
Similarly, your out of pocket money for lemon tree property is far less than $175 per week.
