Thanks everyone for the comments

congrats! sounds massive - mind if i ask where it is?

The house is in North Ringwood, Victoria
Corner Block. Its not the biggest house in the area, but has great potential. Its about 50 years old.

My Planned list of reno's is massive too. Well lots of small things
* New Wardrobe in the master bedroom
* rip up carpet in the 3 bedrooms and lounge room
* polish the floor boards in all the bedrooms and repolish the other rooms currently in a high gloss to match the new finish of the other rooms
* New Kitchen
* Convert the carport to a double garage
* Paint throughout
* Solar power
* Rip some trees down
and more.

The pool, and spas are all in opposite corners of the property... so its a chilly run from one to the other...

Its scary, yet exciting, to finally be able say i have over the $1Mill mark in property.
and still have an LVR of under 67%

Sounds fantastic! Congratulations, must be very exciting

At the risk of hijacking this thread, any opinions on the forum on Spas and their running costs? We are considering an outdoor spa for our new PPoR being built.

I know that our elec bills aint goign to be cheap... thats why we are also considering solar installation.

probably the wrong section tho to discuss spas.

i think their has been some robust prior conversation on the forum which concluded solar wasn't the most cost effective option.
