As Nigel said I would be going to as many open homes and auctions in your targeted area to see what buyers are paying and looking for. You’ll also get an idea of who the good and bad agents are. Target the bad ones for buying and the good ones for when you sell.

Apart from that these days there are a number of online programs to make researching…[Read more]

It all depends on your strategy but negative gearing isn’t the best strategy especially in a city which has just experienced mega growth. You will be buying an asset at the top of the market with low yield. Having said that if you are looking for a long term play it has some merit as the Western Sydney second airport and job hubs will increase…[Read more]

The important thing is making sure they have experience in what you need from them. My first broker never had an investment property and it was a disaster. He didn’t know how to structure my loans to maximise borrowing power. It’s mistakes like this that can jeopardise building a strong portfolio.

There are a number of professionals on this…[Read more]

If you are looking Sydney, Melbourne or Perth that sounds about right with the current market in regards to negative cash flow. Adelaide, Brisbane, regional hubs and Hobart are better picks if you are looking for cash flow? Is this the strategy you are interested in?

If so a quick little cash flow trick I use to scan for cash flow for clients…[Read more]

Welcome to the forum! It’s a great source of information and great way of networking. If you would like to meet like minded people similar sites have property meet ups in different states.

I would start reading up on as many different property strategies and work out which one will work best for you. From there you can start building a team of…[Read more]

I’d talk to Corey Batt from Precision Funding. They are located in SA but in this day and age everything is done through phone, Skype or email anyway so location wouldn’t be an issue.

As for the $180K you still have some options out there. Dependant on your strategy but there are some Regional NSW suburbs and areas in Adelaide that you could get…[Read more]

Hey Ajay,
If you are looking for strong cash flow. I would recommend Albury/Orange/Wagga Wagga. I invest heavily in Albury. Steady growth, strong yields, good tenant demographic etc. Like any investment make sure you do your homework. I’d try and buy with a tenant in place if possible as most regionals have a higher vacancy rate.

Hi Shehan as others have stated I would do plenty of research and networking to develop a strategy that suits your goals. Once you have developed a strategy then you can work out the type of properties you want to target.

Best of luck!

No problem mate. It’s going to be a great night!

Hey Naomi and Anthony. There is a meet up on the 28th that may interest you. I will be there as one of the panelists :)

Hey newbie2015 I’d talk to another broker to make sure every possible option is available to you. Still sounds like you may have some options available to you. Is company x helping or have they disappeared since getting the money?

Hi everyone there is a meet up in Sydney CBD this Thursday for anyone interested.

Hi Jad.

Where abouts in regional NSW are you buying that has limitations on LVR?

I would personally try and add value to your current properties to try and create some sweat equity. Maybe have a chat to an investment savvy broker on here so all your options are available to you.

Next in line :)

Hi Jade,

Flipping at the moment can be very risky. Did you want to start with flipping to get enough deposits for your buy and hold properties? Most investors start with buy and hold then move to flipping as their borrowing power dries up.

I’d personally just look at buying undervalued properties with renovation potential. Try and draw out…[Read more]
