    Prices in WA are still affordable and still achieving considerable growth in some key areas. Construction for The new rail link for the southern corridor is underway and it is proposed the Rockingham area’s population will have doubled by 2016 which accounts for the massive overhaul of the local hospital. The foreshore is being developed with highrise appartments and the price for real estate there is still considerably lower than the Perth median house price….definately worth a look.[biggrin]

    Hi all
    Just purchased first IP however this one is negative geared(PLEASE DONT HURT ME). I bought in an area which has seen steady yet impressive growth over a long period of time. I am however targeting positive cash flow properties next to help maintain my serviceability. Does anyone else believe diversifcation is a good strategy……?

    Hi Julian,

    11 properties this year as currnet but given a few days the new total will be 13. Been investing for over 9 months now.

    Though not all my properties are positive. I target all 4 main areas of property investing.

    Positive gearing
    Negative gearing
    Passive gearing
    Neutral gearing

    Using the offset gearing principle as my purchasing strategy.

    cheers

    Gday, can you explain to me what the offset gearing principal is?
    Thanx
