I will manage myself (have always done so with my -ve IP’s.) so don’t have to calculate management fees.
Have also looked at splitting the loan so a portion is principal as well (risk management)and still maintain +ve cashflow. Very slim margin I am aware but area has maintained good capital growth…[Read more]

I will also have no problem getting my bond back when I leave as I filled out on the condition report that the property was filthy on entry. No one at the agency ever queried that report which means I can leave it any way I…[Read more]

Keep looking for that silver lining and enjoy your finished product.

One here in Brisbane and the other in Caloundra. A quick call to any estate agent should sort it out.
We managed our own property last time and were much happier. We achieved a higher rental than…[Read more]

Any local info would be appreciated.

You can then sell it 2 days after you move in if you want with no capital gains. As long as the taxation office don’t believe you are doing it regularly for…[Read more]

We negative geared our combined incomes of $100,000, sold after five years of huge growth to make a tidy profit. However I should point out that we would no longer consider this an option.

Good for investment properties. You may even get a positive return from Cairns from the first year.
But in Chermside/West you will have to negatively gear though as it is close to Brissy.


I am a newbie who has been surfing the net for two weeks looking for poitive cashflow properties. Where in Cairns would you source these? I did not find…[Read more]
