We still don't have an answer if it 'slightly' affects your credit rating! What a joke.

Is she a Guru, or do we avoid her recommendations? Wouldn't that be smart, buy a few properties in the suburb then tell your followers it's the bomb, then sell the property you just bought for a nice profit.

Mine would be a proverb actually, I read it as I was researching buying a property on a set time scale.

Is the investor expected to speak to you pro bono?

I will be leaving perth in Jan of 2019. So it will literally be a vehicle to further investment.

My goal is to build up a portfolio, I could keep renting at 500 PFN and invest the difference, or give it a shot buying the first property and living in it for 3 years before turning it into a IP. Decisions decisions.

This is my thinking, as I know from another post that buying a PPOR first instead of an IP can put you behind, but that calculation to me would appear to be long term, ie it's your PPOR for 30 years, not one that you bought, held for a year or two and then turned into an IP. With lenders...

I understand that rent money is not dead money, as long as you're investing the difference rather than squandering it, and I have fantastic security in knowing that I will never have to vacate this house until I post out of Perth if I don't want to. My partner and I earn around 95 k combined.

A quick hypothetical scenario. I am currently renting with my partner for 500 per fortnight in Spearwood in Perth. We would both like to start investing in our future. Living in WA as a home buyer you get 3000 dollars FHOG, and a 2000 dollar grant for things like conveyancing if the...

You would need to get the bulldozer in for that! http://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-wa-spearwood-119718347 For sale by owner, from what I can see it's just outside the R40 zoning, and is R20. Nice piece of land, average house, being sold by the owner. Amazes me the size of the...

I missed that under contract part, such small writing! From the property report it seems to think it's the full 700 m, and the add says house.

What a brilliant tool, I'm using that now. Ugly house, but 700m2 R40 zoned makes this tempting. http://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-wa-spearwood-118900911 It has been on the market for 4 months with a couple of price drops, according to Investar it is undervalued, I would say most...

That's what I am doing now, I'm also looking at some of the paid tools that show previous sale prices etc to assist in ensuring I get the best value for money. I am doing a lot of reading on here and whirlpool as well, about the settlment and offering process.

I didn't know that, interesting piece of information.

Sorry, by that I meant how do I prevent the REA using me to get a better than best deal out of me. :p

Any tips on how to not get my pants pulled down by a REA?

We make between us 93900, so just under the threshold. I am waiting for a broker to contact me now... They really dictate my next move.

Absolutley. I'm just lucky that I have a posting beyond a couple of years. I'll keep this thread updated as I go through the process. From the sums I've done I could buy up to 430 k pretty comfortably, this would lead to looking at houses about 450 k max. I would be able to service the...

What are thoughts on hamilton hill? Some cheap ish deals on 2br places with nice yards...
