    I just want to get some of your thougths. We bought, done up and are now selling our place. At the end we will have made about $100,000 in the year we owned it. This along with our $80,000 that we originally had gives us quite a bit of money to start our next project. At the moment we are thinking, after much research of buying another do up in QLD for around the $300,000 mark. I have found areas, although others say there are none left, where I can buy +ve cash flow properties. What is everyones thoughts. Best to use most of the $180,000 for our do up and redraw on that to purchase +ve $ properties? Or use the minimum needed deposit for the do up and split the rest as deposits on other +ve $ properties. Or use the minimum needed deposit for the do up, and buy outright a $80,000 place and redraw on both homes for more +ve cash flow props. Your thoughts would be much appreciated.

    If you are going to be living in it, I would think it wise to consider using available funds to buy your house first and then borrowing on this for deposits for your IPs. this way you could decrease non deductible debt.
