    Does that mean my snowboarding trip next year to Japan will be cheaper?

    Would I be naive in suggesting below as a very basic calculation forgetting about negative gearing, depreciation, tax etc

    Term Deposit

    $200k x 5.25% = $10 500.00 / year 

     

    Putting the $200k towards property as a 12% deposit on $1.65mil portfolio

    $1.65mil x (estimate 5% property increase) = $82 500.00 / year

    I've been called the past few weeks by my bank manager at Rams saying there is a pretty good deal on at the moment with switching part or all of my loan to a fixed rate. My current P&I variable is 7.13% and the 12 month fixed is 6.3%. Will cost me $ 295.00 to switch and save me $186.75 a month

    I know nobody is a fortune teller and rates will probably come down in the next 12 months but some circumstances have lead to me looking at every dollar more closely and the certainty of the fixed repayment is a + as well

    Any thoughts?
