    Hi desilucky,

    I've noticed a couple of urgent questions from you lately – I'm worried that you are perhaps rushing into buying properties.  Best to do your homework first and define your strategy.  For example your strategy might be:

    – Property built after 1985 only (for depreciation purposes)
    – Within 30km of a capital city
    – Within 1km of a train station
    – Near schools
    – Requiring very little renovation due to limited skill or budget to cope with it at this stage
    – Not near electric transformers, refuse sites or other undesirable zones

    Or contact integral and ask if its sticking around long term..

    might be a bargain if it dissapears in the near future..

    As for radiation, unless its got the Phone network arials hanging off it its just going to annoy you when its moist.. (some get all crackly so check it on a rainy night!)

    If not – as a rental would it affect the rent? as a PPOR its your decision, you have to live there..

    My suggestion if you can live with it – Negotiate hard or walk away..
