and 1 x 1br @75 pw which is very cheap

Should we just go for it?
PS. These figures are based on using the interest free loan.
Thanks for everyone’s feedback, I really appreciate it. [biggrin]collie
No can you redo the figures with interest in case the interest free loan never eventuates.

Adelaide SAWhen running the ‘numbers’ you don’t usually include the principal repayments of a loan.
This exclusion would make the ‘deal’ (in fact ANY deal) extremely +’ve due to the nil interest rate.
As Byronet suggests – factor in a real interest rate.
If your financier IS able to do a 0% loan then all the better.
I wanner believe in the Nil rate loan and the 100% of valuation BUT …..[blush2]
If these are older flats, you’re probably going to have to factor in stuff like new kitchens at some stage in the future if you want to keep occupancy high.
Any lawns to mow?
I’ve got an older block of flats. Maintenance is probably closer to 10%.
If you can build some equity quickly and have some contingency funds to cover some extra repairs close together, I’d consider it seriously.
thanks for the replys, at 7% interest over 30 years it would cost us $64 per week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I must do this calculations before I get ahead of myself.
I just seem to be going round and round in circles with this whole investing thing!
Back to the drawing board, though I will still churn over this deal a bit more…………collie
