    My Green Ugly Duckling - #3

    Hi EN710 - thanks for the kind words. I would imagine the next 3 will also be in SE QLD, so yes will be using a BA for these as I'm in NSW and would rather focus on maximising my PAYG income. Will start scaling back my borrowing to 90% + LMI for the next few I would imagine. Will depend on the...

    My Green Ugly Duckling - #3

    Yes - two completely seperate and individual portfolios. Her's is 100% in her name, and mine is 100% in my name. From a risk mitigation perspective, we are keeping everything 100% seperate until marriage. If worst comes to worst, and we go our seperate ways, there is clear seperation. N

    My Green Ugly Duckling - #3

    Thanks for the kind words Westminster, Spades & Moneyman_85. It just proves that age is just a number - if you want it badly enough you will make the sacrifices to make it happen. If you don't, you'll make excuses as to why you can't or won't be able to do it. If I can do it, anyone my age can...

    My Green Ugly Duckling - #3

    Thanks for the kind words guys. I went through Right Property Group (RPG) again for this interstate purchase. I really like their strategy as it fits very much in line with my risk profile and long term aspirations. I'm still very hands on in terms of due diligence/crunching the numbers, but...

    My Green Ugly Duckling - #3

    Hi guys, I hope you are all well. Even though I haven't been able to contribute recently as much as I would have liked due to work commitments, I just thought I'd pop my head in and share a deal I've recently gone unconditional on. I call this my 'Green Ugly Duckling'. In terms of a brief...
