Hi all,
I am about to take my first step into the property investing world and I am nervous as hell about it.
I am using the equity in my PPOR to allow me to finance the purchase of a house and land package in Andrews Farm in the northern suburbs of Adelaide.
My PPOR in the Elizabeth area was recently valued at $210,000 and I owe $150,000 on it and I feel quite comfortable with my level of debt at the moment and the current repayments of $250 p/week are also well within my comfort zone.
To be honest I have read every book, magazine and forum on property investing that I could find over the last 12 months but I still do not consider myself 'educated' enough in this area to know if I am doing the right thing.
I guess I am just after reassurance as less than ten years ago I was flat broke and in debt and I do not ever wish to be in that situation again.
Can anyone hold my hand and tell me it's alright.
What do you all think? Any advice from those that have been there before will certainly be welcome.
I'm also not smart enough in thid area to work out how much this property is going to cost me per week out of my pocket which is what makes me nervous. If anyone could point me to an online calculator or similar where I could work out that info I would be very greatful. If anyone is willing to do the calculations for me I would happily supply all the necessary info.
All my finance has been pre-approved but I still really have no idea exactly how much it is going to cost me. I know the price of the land and the price of the house with all the inclusions I require, but being able to work out exactly how much it will cost including fees, taxes, legals etc has got me stumped.
Once again, any info will be appreciated and I apologise for the 'numpty' questions.
Thanks
Darren
