I will try it at home. Does anyone else have an app in excel?
Thanks,
Spock

my q relates to sourcing the property. I spent nearly a year and well over 100 inspections to find my PPOR so Im hoping not to go thru all that again to find an IP.
I guess if I could narrow it down to 2-3 suburbs I could get to know that area well but then I really want an area with positive gains as well as CG and I dont know which…[Read more]

does that then mean doing a renno/face-lift before renting out? That would be cash outlay in the first year of aquistion which Ive heard should be left to the second or later years?
I do take your point though if it looks a bit run down it may just need a tidy up – is that the idea?

Also the developers/marketers subsidise the rent until the guarantee period ends thenit drops off
Be careful

Well my goal is to own 3-4 properties to fund my retirement in about 15 years time. I would aim to hold 5-6 by then and sell off a couple to pay out the IO loans. However, the other difficulty I see is that of cashflow – I can set up one IP but it would be a long time before I can get a second one if they are neg geared. I have…[Read more]

I am in Melbourne and keep being told to buy around 10km from the CBD but $250,000 is the starting price for small 1-2 bed units. They will of course be neg geared at about -$100pw. Please help.
