Hi Ingrid
Your scenario sounds really similiar to what my husband and I want to do. ( same amt funds etc)   I have been researching growth areas, and am a little nervous as to picking the right area to maximise the property's value when we are able to retire. So many people are negative about this …. but we don't want to sit back and do nothing. If you would care to share your accountants details with me and the area you purchased your property in – i would be grateful (send me a direct e-mail if you prefer) I have a great accountant… but his knowledge in this area isn't up there … and I know that to do this … the accountant is the KEY to making it all work.
Cheers
