    2 weeks ago I gave 2 movie tickets to one of my tenant who look after my property really well and paying rent on time.

    I will also give one week free rent for signing a new lease for 2 years. The tenant want air condition in the unit so I will put it for them with $10 per week extra for 2 years lease.

    At this point, I am not plannig to give anything away for easter.

    Kind regards

    Dear All,

    I don’t want to create another topic, but want to add my question here if I could.

    I just got a pest inspection done on one of my potential purchase for investment. there are live termites activity on the side fence, but there are no activity in the house.

    I know you can do a pest control treatment for termites. The questions are:

    1. Will it be a permanent (no more termites activity) once the treatment done? or I have to do pest inspection / treatment regularly for this house?

    2. Any estimate of how much it cost for 30 metres fences termites treatment?

    3. What is the downside / risks if I buy this house? ie. future sale?

    Kind regards

    Rugbyfan,

    Maybe I try to watch more Rugby. I did watch the Rugby world cup and quite enjoy it as well.

    So which team are you supporting? My guess Warratah.

    Rugbyfan,

    That’s why I don’t use it at the moment, but I might consider using it in the future if I am going to invest in New Zealand. Just carry the 20% cash and borrow 80% from New Zealand bank, no drama at all.

    Kind regards

    Celivia,
    I think there is one catch tho…the interest on LOC will be higher comparing to the normal structure where you do cross-coll.

    I don’t think I can do better than what Terry suggested, but just would like to add that get your structure right at the first place. Speak to professional accountant, talks to brokers as well as the big banks.

    I learned how to ignore subject like English that’s why my English is so bad. I wish I spend more time learning it and master it. But I am not too late, I am learning it everyday, that’s why I am here typing away whatever I can.

    The previous issue of API magazine explain fully of how to set up LOC / Master Account.

    Example:
    PPOR current value = $300k, current loan = $100k
    Maximum equity = $200k

    Available Equity = ($300k x 0.8) – $100k = $140k

    Set up Master Account = $100k

    Buy IP1 = $100k, loan = $80k and use $20k from master account

    Available in Master Account = $80k

    Buy IP2 = $200k, loan = $160k and use $40k from master account.

    Available in Master Account = $40k
    .
    .
    .

    Derek,

    I totally agreed with. In my previous messages it was not intent to realise totally to school, but learn the basic things like investing terms.

    I think you make a great points:

    The education process (to be successful long term) has to be a joint effort. Some learning at school and reinforcement at home.

    I can assure people we (teaching fraternity collectively) can often pinpoint the ‘problem child’ at 4 year old kindy with a high probability of success.

    A broadbrushed statement but – I would also contend that a number of teachers have little understanding of money management and basic investment principles – a regular salary, secure employment and often with a healthy superannuation system make for some lazy habits – and by default are not necessarily equipped to ‘teach investing’

    Kind regards

    JackFr,

    You got to have enough equity to drawdown for new IPs by way of Cross-Coll or LOC.

    Which meant you either borrow 105% as one loan doc using 2 securities for the loan or you borrow 80% for one loan using the purchasing property as a security and 25% from Line of Credit (LOC).

    Kind regards

    Tammy,

    In that case you rent the existing house out and purchase a better house for both of you to live in.
    Then you do the followings:
    Draw down the equity to purchases a few +ve cashflow properties. Put whatever you can save to your PPoR.

    At the end of the day you will be controlling 4 IPs and PPoR.

    Kind regards
