    Xenia,

    While I don’t personally do NZ finance, I have contacts based in Sydney who I can refer you to if that’s more convenient. Otherwise Steve’s deal sounds pretty good rates subject to other costs.

    Steve,
    Have you got a direct relationship with a particular lender in NZ or is it a broker you use over there?

    Cheers, WM

    Hi Mini,

    I’ve just joined this forum and am intrigued by what you are doing. Great work.

    I imagine there would be a point when rising rents would slow down as people’s incomes don’t go up quickly enough to cover the annual increase. But you can be sure there’s a median income in any particular area that would give you an idea of what people can afford to pay. For instance, in places where you are buying properties for $40K, but the average wage is say 25K pa, then there must be some standard percentage that average earners pay in rent. Let’s say it’s $100 per week – that would be 20%.

    Does anyone know what that percentage is? Because that would tell you the average rent for the area and you could set that as your conservative ceiling yeild. I guess.

    WM.
