So here goes my questions ..
2 years ago my wife and I built a lovely house - a little way out from Brisbane CBD. House is valued at around 480k, current outstanding loan is $409k.I am currently paying P&I and have an offset account.
Our situation has now changed and we now have a 5 month old son, however my wife's family and friends live a little way away which has made it harder for support etc due to the travel required. At the time we thought it would be manageable however its proving a little too difficult in these early years.
We do not want to sell our house as its an awesome area, and just a great house. We can see ourselves possibly retiring in this house or giving it to our son one day.
My thoughts are to rent this house out, and move closer to the CBD/family friends and rent a place that would suit us better.
Who would I be looking at talking to for some quality advice and crunching numbers etc to see what is viable for us ? And recommendations in Brisbane ?
Really appreciate any advice
Cheers
