Hey Guys,
Long time lurker - first time poster!
And, I might add… thank you for being so generous with your wealth of knowledge – I’ve crammed my brain so full of information it’s beginning to hurt!
So this is my problem…
My wife works in Melbourne on a contract basis – 3 months here 4 months there etc.
Until now she’s been staying with family but you can only stay so long…
So we’re looking at buying a 1 bed apartment somewhere around: Richmond, Kew, Pt Melbourne, Sth Melbourne, Okleigh, St Kilda – (She needs to be close to the city for work).
I’d also like to see some CG come out of it as well.
But here’s the rub… We need to be able to get short term leases in place while she’s not there (3month – 6 month) so we don’t have to cover too much of the mortgage. And we’d be looking at something newish to appeal to executives.
Do you know of any PM who offer this service or if this possible? Is their anywhere you can point me to further investigate this…?
And am I looking around the right areas for CG. (The budgets around $300k - $440K)
I’ve already looked into serviced apartments and they’re out of the question because of the hard to sell factor and the commercial arrangements currently don’t suit my portfolio aspirations.
Any help would be much appreciated – I’ll also start a reno thread for our PPOR which we’re doing a refurb on the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry – which will become an IP next year - should be fun.
Thanks in advance!
