Welcome, Max!
I think we need to know more about your strategy. Is it “buy and hope” or plan to manufacture growth somehow?
Ethan Timor started the topic Cost effective way to have a granny flat? in the forum Value Adding 7 years, 10 months ago
Hi all,
One of our properties has a big nice backyard with its own side lane access so we’re thinking to put a granny flat on it.
Had a discussion with the local council and there shouldn’t be any issues. It’s in NSW so 60 sqm max.
Ideally we would like it to be something that looks like a Queenslander (to fit the neighbourhood), not an ugly…[Read more]

Ethan Timor replied to the topic Rentvesting Advice in the forum Creative Investing 7 years, 10 months ago
Not at the moment, no, but that’s how we started. We couldn’t buy where we wanted to live so we invested elsewhere while we were renting.
Not all of it, as far as I know but generally speaking I would take accounting advice from my accountant, not guests at dinner parties or even forums.
Doubt you could find positively geared property that…[Read more]

Too true.
And what will be the valuation in 2019?
Risky business IMHO

Ethan Timor replied to the topic 2 bedroom in bad suburb or 1 bedroom in good suburb? in the forum Help Needed! 7 years, 11 months ago
Reckon there are too many factors here for a yes/no answer.
If you are looking for a strong rental yield, then that’s a different aim than a strong capital growth play. Rental yield is great for cashflow, capital growth is great for wealth building.
Personally, I like eating the pie and keeping it full 😉

You mean you are dealing with the council yourself? 😱
I generally like pros doing their thing instead of amateur me doing it. Maybe consult with a surveyor or a town planner?
Good luck and happy new year!

Excellent reply and insights from Benny.

I wouldn’t try to time the market exactly at the peak (or bottom if buying) which sounds like what you’re after? It’s…[Read more]

Serviceability – with which lenders are trusts better than individual?
Negative gearing – yes, they sure do. I meant that you can’t offset your taxable income against the losses of a property in a trust. The trust itself can do it within the trust, yes.
Land tax – thanks for the correction. Shame on me for thinking about NSW…[Read more]
