  • From what I hear the banks have tightened up since the GFC on the practice of releasing equity from your properties to live off and capitalising the interest ongoing?

    Grovedale is a fairly well established suburb. Median prices are probably around 250-300k at a guess. The suburb does have some areas that are heavily populated by commission homes so that affects it's appeal somewhat. Vacancy rates are quite low.

    Agree with Hulkster, anywhere from central to south of geelong you will find low vacancies and quality properties. I have lived in Geelong my whole 30years and have recently purchased an I.P off the plan in waurn ponds.

    It's exactly the same process though. Difference being the premiums are paid by your superannuation fund as apposed to coming out of your cashflow. Bear in mind it's only tax deductible if paid from your cashflow. There are advantages and disadvantages to both options.
