Hi All,
Once you have decide on your strategy, in terms of buying, its important to accurately evaluate each deal.
The income derived from a property is pretty straight forward, which is the rental achievable.
The problem is the expenses, which can easily eat into the income of a property. I am trying to get a comprehensive list for properly related expenses for houses and units. Some which spring to mind are:
Mortgage Repayments
Vacancy rates (which can be calculated by a % of the rental i.e. 1-2%)
Property Management (which can be calculated by a % of the rental i.e. 7-8%)
Strata Fees (for units)
Council rates (how do you get an idea of these costs?)
Water (payable by tenant)
Electricity (payable by tenant)
Gas (payable by tenant)
Are there any other expenses related to a property which have not been mentioned?
I know there is also land tax.
Regards,
Robbie
