i am currently getting together details of borrowing capacity to buy an investment and then try and sell with rent to buy/VF.
i note above Tamara that you mention a JV. I am in WA, is there anyone out there willing to look at a JV, if so how would it work? I buy the property in my name, and then my JV partner finds a buyer and…[Read more]

I will check out your website to see if meeting dates are listed on there… If not, can you send me some details.
Also do you know of any one in WA that does VF investing, as this is an area I am interested in.
Thanks

We currently have approx. 270k equity based on that price..
We bought 3 years ago… Look forward to some clarity.

Having now read your negative2positive… So another question, I assume we have to go on today’s market prices, when looking at resale, even tho this is under what we paid for the house itself?

I am serious about investing and my mind is boggling. My 1st step is to try and sell our PPR whilst we build a newer down sized PPR. If it doesn’t sell then I will look at selling using VF. Although this will still leave us with a big mortgage, yet with some +ve CF to assist. I then will look at my other…[Read more]

Now Paul, I am just a little confused, just a little mind you :).
If I were to buy my next property on VF is it possible to still get +CF from it. I will already be paying higher than normal mortgage payments on it, so if I rent it out, I would have thought that it isn’t likely to return +ve…[Read more]

If I could get 1000 pm +CF on both, then that would hugely assist paying towards my mortgage on the newly built PPOR, the only other issue that I would then need to clarify, is where do I stand in obtaining my next IP, as I would not have a deposit for 1. I am happy to sit with just…[Read more]

With our PPOR, I am looking at using 100k from it for our next house, and then using 50-70k for our next IP. However if I went VF with our PPOR I would need both that and our initial IP to bring me a reasonable +CF to sustain our new…[Read more]

I know you guys do JV deals.. Do you consider deals in Perth? My current investment has only had tenants in for 2 months on a 12 month contract.
