Hi,
I'm trying to buy my first property and use it as PPoR, my idea is, in a few years down the track to rent it out as an IP. My wife doesn't work for the time being therefore receives no income.
Can anyone please advise if the property should be put under joint names or just me? My solicitor...
Hi,
I am looking at investing in this block http://www.domain.com.au/Property/For-Sale/Apartment-Unit-Flat/VIC/Carlton/?adid=2010540652
I just wanted to see what the wise people on here think :)
Feel free to reply with a yes/no and why or elaborate if you wish!
And I don't mean at Crown's Mahogany room!
I already have a 350k IPO in Altona Meadows.
I live in my house in Melton, which has barely shifted in price since I bought it eight years ago. I've decided to bite the bullet, cut my losses and sell the damn place. I imagine I won't have much...
Hi all,
Most likely a simple Q and A but I have heard/read conflicting opinions recently...
If your first property purchase was an IP which you had never lived in, could you later purchase a property to live in and claim the First Home Buyers Grant?
Cheers
As i mentioned before in other threads, i would like to jazz up my IP strata apartment before renting it out.
a few things on my to-do list are:
- replace kitchen sink with a better , stronger quality one (one i have is crap)
- replace a wind-able window (all windows are currently jammed)...
Before i rent my IP out , i would like to change my kitchen sink...
the one now is use-able for us now but for rough user tenants, the sink is far to "filmsy" and does not support the taps very well
can anyone recommend me GOOD place to buy?
i was going to look for one on gumtree... but...

Hi

Hi Everyone,
While looking for my last Investment Property, I used a fairly simple excel spreadsheet to give me an idea if a property was positive/negative geared and by how much per week/month etc.

Moorooka is only 7-8km from the CBD, with loads of upside. It's a bit of a dump at the...
