A little knowledge can be dangerous..
After realizing that I had actually already made it with property last year, through very basic "by the seat of the pants" strategies, and just plain hard work, i thought I would get totally involved with the next stage..getting wealthy, well..more wealthy by studying all the forums and reading book after book. It has given me lots of ideas.. and there are so many opportunies out there that I am excited! So excited that I phoned the bank, got a $350K LOC at the ready, and have spent a month trhowing money back and forth from account to account, not sure of ANYTHING anymore...HELP.. MY ACCOUNTANT will make sure I die a horrible, painful death, fi I dont fix this mess.( Internet banking gives you a real sense of power! money from here, money to there, and back again like aireal ping pong)
What am I supposed to pay from the LOC? Rates? Body corp fees? deposits for other IP's?Furniture packages?Electricity/ PABX connections? Pay Tv for IP"s?
1)We have a partnership structure set up where all our wages rents share divs go into and personal expenses get paid from.
2)Interest for all our Ip's also get paid from the partnership account.. Am I supposed to dip into the LOC to meet any shortfall, and transfer it back to the partnership account?-there are a few neg geared loans that do have shortfalls which our wages dont cover. I dont intend to use the LOC for any personal funding.
3)What about the interest for the LOC? It gets automatically debited from the partnership.Did i get it right? Is this what is called "capitalised interest?"
4)Last question--how does that LOC ever get repaid? By selling an Ip?By Tax refunds at the end of the year?
5) Does anyone care how big the debt in the LOC gets and how long for? I have 4 properties I am wanting to buy.
6) What is the point of using the LOC for your deposits, if the bank will lend you the full amount anyway? Is this a strategy or what?
Sorry guys,(and gals) i am not blonde..realy.NITE ALL, hope you can put me out of my self induced misery...i realy hate not not being able to get my head around something!
