@Don,
Do you find that there is a stream of tenants looking to rent on the central coast or is there a bias towards owner occupier on the central coast.
Not to doubt your numbers but…..those sound like really high ROI numbers. Do you want to suggest some suburbs that you’ve found rental returns like that?

good news for investors. any short term benefit (eg easier servicing on our mortgages) gets eaten up by higher entry points to purchase more property making it expensive to grow your portfolio

How much do you pay per annum for your landlords insurance through EBM insurance? What were the terms apart from $500 excess?
DeanCollins replied to the topic Insurance requirements for landlords in the forum General Property 9 years, 8 months ago
you can bet if I put my own hand through an existing window in my house that wasn’t up to code but existing that I wouldn’t get $800k compo for it.
DeanCollins replied to the topic Insurance requirements for landlords in the forum General Property 9 years, 8 months ago
ridiculous….. Australia is becoming just like the USA with ambulance chasing lawyers at every turn.
sure its easy for landlords to joke now but you only need a few 800k payouts before no one wants landlord insurance and everything goes to hell and it becomes a multi-thousand dollar a year expense to insure.

@Catalyst so for your strata apartments how much are you paying per year for your landlord insurance and who is it through.

Although they are talking about the USA interest rates (which has been obscenely low for far far too long) but the same affect is going to happen for Australia in 2017-2018.
When interest rates go back up to 5-6% from 4.5% that 50-100k extra you spent “because interest rates were so low” is really going to hurt in that the capital growth may not…[Read more]

Hi Sayan,
I’m not a solicitor….call the NSW FairTrading folks in the morning ….you pay taxes and that’s what they are there for :)……however, based on what I’m reading with the details written there……nope.
Basically if they gave you notice on the 15th of June the earliest they could ask you to vacate is 90 days later eg 15th of September.
