The finance has just been approved on our first Ip, a 2 bed unit, not a world beater but a place to start.Purchased for $95k, about $15k under listed price, is tenanted, rent is $135 pw. Needs paint and carpets and some minor repairs and then rent is going up to $145 – $150.We are pretty excited about it, this is just the start to our property investing journey.

Don’t forget to insure it well. Use this time now to apply different figures like capital growth and rental increases to see how it will turn out in a certain amount of years. It’s always fun to do figures and a ‘real life’ purchase, rather than a ‘what if’ purchase.
Enjoy.[biggrin]
