Thanks for the quick response. The property is in Queensland. I know I can dispute the assessment but I am concerned that they will charge me more after the reassessment. Already got a 75% discount which still ends up costing aud4,000 in interest and charges. Any help is appreciated. Regards s

Hi There, Yes, finance cost can be high but it should not be more than $100k during construction, which I intend to capitalize. Now, that's lot of cash for 9months but with an upside of up to $700k I think it is a reasonable risk to take. The way I see it, worst case scenario I can walk away with $200k net … wish is not too bad.Cheers

Hi wealthyjvd,I have used conservative figures.

However, should unit prices drop by 10% during construction and costs increase by almost 20% I would walk…[Read more]
