Hi all,
I've got around 120k in cash in a high interest saving account.
I am thinking of buying a property as I am renting currently. I appreciate your opinion whether it makes sense to buy one house for like 550k by depositing %20 (to avoid LMI) or should I consider buying two smaller properties, like each for 350K, with 10% deposit and have one of them as IP (interest only loan). Which one is financially more beneficial in short term (e.g., 3-5 year) and long term (10+ year). I would like to know your opinion on how to correctly invest in properties.
I don't know if it matters or not, I am living in ACT.
Cheers,
