Foundation,
Your extreme lack of knowledge and diplomacy on this forum shows your inmaturity. How old are you 20,30.
You analise to much and are you learning how to spell at the moment?

Why would I need to detail my education history in order to post helpful information, while those handing out questionable and dangerous advice go…[Read more]

What does it matter providing the advice I dispense does not cause harm to others?I think any poor or misguiding advice deserves to be challenged, and I would urge everyone to do so.

Yeah right. You have what…[Read more]

Rent versus ownershipp?

Has been discussed extensivley. Would like to hear more views on this topic, very interested especially in this climate of property investing.
My view which is not important is, if you are a first home/ip buyer then buy.
If you have 10 positive geared properties then you have a choice.
No real answer for this just a matter…[Read more]

A little bird told me you can get a loan with no interest repayments?

Dom[biggrin]

See a could accountant or a registered finanicial advisor.
Proffessional help is cheap.

Dom[biggrin]

Yep it works.

TerryW,

If you have a large mortgage say $400,000+, Interest only for instance then this property would be highly negatively geared.If you live in it how does the taxation department estimate the rent? Or for that matter how do you?

Any comments would be appreciated.

I do not have an accountant at this stage.
I am asking the question about trust in general and to see if anybody has this sort of structure at present.

Thanks Dom[biggrin]

My prediction is that property prices will decline by 50% because on my keyboard 5 and % are on the same key.

I have just negotiated to purchase a block of land for $30,000 less then what it was offered 2 months ago. This is to build my PPOR as my family is running out of room.

I will be renting my current property so this will give mee an other…[Read more]

I have been house hunting in my area and have inspected several properties that have all been reduced in price,and i have a wider choice now compared to before christmas.

Prices are still dropping. The agent told me that these property owners are open to all offers.

Its great to have a wider choice. But i can only speak for my area.
This for me…[Read more]

Merry Christmas to everyone.

As usual your imputs have been a great help and i look forward to enjoying this forum well into the new year.And remember as once napoleon said “nothing is impossible”.

AusProp,

I dont think the price is important its more to do with monitoring reasearch and speaking with people in the industry.

One particular house went from $235,000 to $180,000 in 1 month.

Monopoly,

I dont necessarily beleive everybody buys and hold in a boom but more of a downturn to acheive better results. That is why i have been keeping…[Read more]

If you beleive thier is no money to be made in property investing at any time then thats exactly what will happen to you.

Its all up to the individual, if you have a negative approach in a turning market you wont be active.

Consider what the proffessional investors are doing do you believe they are not active in the market right now?

If your…[Read more]

I will minimise interest rate risk by fixing my loans, pay p&I and add any spare cash into loans and keep my tennents happy.
