Hi Terryw, thank you for the advice, i will be opting for interest only option and try and go for 100% offset account. I was a little concerned about the size of the unit too but anything bigger is outside my price range for the location i'm after.

Hi Devo76, Richard, yes I intend to live in it for the first 6 months of purchase. Thanks for your feedback

Hope you all have a great week ahead!
