Hi Guys,
After reading so much and concentrating on getting a plan in place its time for me to take some action. I am committed to making property investment my path to financial freedom. More to the point, in 15 years I want to have the choice as to weather I need to work any longer.
I have attached a spreadsheet of this plan which includes a few sums. Now, I am no Excel wizz so I thought I would put it to the forum to garner some feedback about it and where I might need to adjust.
Assumptions
So here are my questions. I am not 100% on the line of credit thing. I know I will likely have a shortfall between my rent and my loan costs. I will only be able to service a certain amount of this shortfall with my wage ($121,000p.a). Is there a LOC I will be able to set up from the beginning to help with this shortfall given that my sums show that the increase in equity on my properties will cover any drawdowns I make.
Am I right to assume the LOC will let me draw up to 90% of equity?
Is this plan a little too ambitious. Am I dreaming.
I am so enthusiatic about this. I am about to embark on the purchase of "Property 3" so I want to make sure I am on track. I do not own a PPOR but instead choose to rent to improve servicability. I already have the first 2 properties...so this is Year 2 for me and its just begun.
Ask me questions, tell me what I need to consider.
Man this is fun !!
Thanks in Advance

Assumptions
- Purchases in Year 1 made with 5% deposit + costs down.
- Value of Seven Hills property in year 2 is after renovation (already done)
- No rent is calculated on the Forrest Beach property as it is vacant land
- Purcahses in Year 2 onwards are made on 100% loans and equity is used for purchasing costs
- Assuming captial growth of 7% per year
- Assuming Rental increases 4% per year
- Servicability is how much of my own wages I am able to pay towards servicing loans up to year 15 when I plan to retire
- Rent is initially calculated at 5% yield on purchase price (not including costs) (fairly conservative I think)
- The shortfall of Rent to Loan Cost is made up by drawing down a line of credit.
