Hi,
So i'm pretty new to IP. I'll have a PPOR and 2 x IPs by the start of 2015.
One thing that plays on my mind is if the macro-economic climate deteriorates (ie. Chinese economy experiences a severe slowdown for which Australia is highly dependent)which subsequently has an impact on the rental market and subsequently serviceability of debt.
This is in some ways holding me bank from being more aggressive and acquiring more property. I'm interested in some of the experiences of some of the veteran members, who when they started, potentially had high debt exposures with marginally neutral/positive investments.
My own mitigants are as follows
- Lock in the current 4.92% 5 year interest rate to mitigate IR impact
- Buy large blocks to build additional dwelling - ie granny flat or dual occupancy to increase gross rental yield to about 9-10%
Just want to know peoples thoughts processes that help them sleep better at night......
