I read up a bit on the NRAS up here in QLD. It very much depends on your tax situation…as the benefit is a 10K tax credit….so that will be worth more to you or less depending on what tax bracket you are in.Personally, i found that having to charge 80% of market rent (one of the NRAS rules) that i would only be about $4k per year better off…[Read more]

Just something to be aware of, did you inspect the property when it was listed for sale? If so the agent can claim that they 'introduced you' to the property and impose their commission on the vendor. So the vendor may still want a higher price to cover these costs.
