luckyone – Thanks again! Amaroo huh, who knows, they might even be next to each other! I too would like to get into positively geared investments but I think a strategy involving a few high capital growth properties in good areas like Gungahlin is a good way to balance out the portfolio, even if they are negatively geared… when the Gungahlin Drive Extension goes in and the town centre is complete, imagine the prices then, interest rate rise or no interest rate rise! I’m not sure about the bed thing, but if the tenant’s posessions aren’t causing damage and aren’t unreasonable posessions (like a gutted car out in the front yard [] ) I would have assumed that it would be ok.
melbear and LuckyPhil – thank you very much for the invite, I shall try very, very hard to make it out there. It’s in civic isn’t it?
