Hi All,
I have the opportunity to either purchase an IP in Harris Park or Guildford. Both are 2br, similar size. Guildford has secure garage, Harris Park has car port. Both are 5 - 10 mins from their respective stations.
The unit in Harris Park is in a block that is over 20 years old, but it is fairly modern inside, so no work is required.
The unit in Guildford is 6 years old so everything is brand new.
Both properties are the same price $300K, and rent in both areas is similar $380 - $400pw. I would get better tax dereciation with the unit in Guildford, but Harris Park is a more desriable suburb. My plan is to hold the unit for 5 - 10 years for CG.
So which unit would you buy?
Thanks.
