Remember that, other than in gentrifying areas and other anomalous areas such as along the coast, the next growth spurt will usually happen closer…[Read more]

Mt Barker (as an outer suburb) 30kms out is going to continue to grow and is the fastest growing suburb (in Australia?/Adelaide? can’t remember) and has all the markings of continuining in that vein for sometime yet.

1. the start date for the 6 years will be the date the property becomes available for rent (ie. is “in the rental market”), regardless of whether it is tenanted yet. This is also the date you can start claiming expenses. Get some tax advice on items such as preparing the property for rent – you may…[Read more]

The basic concept is to live on the growth in your portfolio. You only spend a percentage of what your portfolio “earns” so you don’t go backwards by…[Read more]

Over the long term, I think the closer you are to the CBD, the better your average growth will be. Sure, some suburbs will have short term spikes in value (gentrification, new services, catchup, etc), but that won’t necessarily help over the long term.

My personal “area” is…[Read more]
