I know one way is to get a few quotes and compare and bargain with each one. Also to do it tax free but that might lead to problems with warranties. My other big concern is also tradies giving a cheaper quote but doing a more dodgy job that I cant see visibly.
23 and starting out so Thanks for any advice!

Thanks for your advice.

How did you avoid arguments in who paid for water usage? And to stop garbage overflowing over the bins?

Is your granny a separate entity to the house? Is your granny in NSW btw?

Justifying whether to furnish a one bedroom unit.
If i furnish a unit and the tenant hurts themselves on my furniture or there is an electrical fire from the electronic goods, is landlord and building insurance going to cover it?

Just 22 and starting out so any advice or view will be gladly taken.

;)

Is there anything else?

my aim was to use the rental properties to provide cash to save for another house instead of using capital growth which i think is more risky in the long term gearing wise.

Is there any flaws with having 50% of your properties with decent capital growth and breakeven rental profit AND 50% of your properties with high rent yields to put in an offset account?
