Its too unpredictable what the outcomes of such a change could be.
I wouldn’t strategise around it, just keep investing to deliberately and purposefully make money.

Hi @Dwayne86

I started off pretty similarly to you. When i first started, I could barely afford houses in any suburb, so did look at units for the same reason you are but end up getting a house and stuck with houses ever since.

I also wrote an article on cashflow vs capital growth for Your Investment Property magazine, which seems relevant to…[Read more]

Hi Michael,

Generally the PPOR will have 2 loans on it, one is for the PPOR itself which is being paid down and the other (which could be a LOC but doesnt have to be) will be for deposits on investment properties. Both of these have to be with the same lender.

The remaining 80-90% of the investment property purchase (since 10-20% has come from…[Read more]

Yup, pretty much everything this guy says ^

It can vary a lot.

In general… any place you built (or new vacant land you created) will attract GST if sold in its first 5 years of ‘creation’.

They’ve profiled me as the capital growth case study, wrote a bit about my investing journey / philosophy and listed the properties my…[Read more]

Great result, well done :)

Way too many variables involved. Best bet is to run through all your details with a broker so they can give informed advice.

Hiya,

Horses for courses, but i still go IO on all of them. The rate doesn’t affect the “applicableness” of it for me.

You can do this. Do not mix both deductible and non deductible expenditure in it. But if its all deductible expenditure then its ok, but still keep track of which properties its spent on. A good accountant come tax time will…[Read more]
