Hey all,
Just after a bit of advice regarding where to invest next.
My current situation is i own 2 investement properties and weighing up whether to buy a third.
- I own own 1 property at Gracemere (Rockhampton) which i owe $148,000 on and currently rents for $285 per week (probably worth around 290-300K)
- I own a second property at Hassall Grove (Western Sydney) which i owe $305,000 and rents for $370/week (worth about $350K)
I am living at home but in the process of moving out.
So the question is do i just rent and try to purchse IP#3 or am i better trying to purchase something to live in (if i did this it would be a 2 bedroom unit at Narrabeen costing roughly $450K).
I understand that if i buy a unit to live in that will be the end of my investing because any spare money will be paying the repayments on the large mortgage.
- The second part of my question is (assuming that i go with purchasing IP#3)
I am looking at buying in Gladstone but will find it difficult to fly up there before mid February. I know none of you have a crystal ball but would you predict that prices will rise by then and thus i will miss out on some CG and should i just sit back and be patient till then (i could possibly get up there before Christmas but only for 3-4 days).
Any help would be very very appreciated!
