    if you take an interest only load the repayments are apprx 3753pa

    insurance seem high at $1000 on $50k investment – does this include landlord protection? If so you dont need to budget for vacancy..??

    Try and rent direct and save agent fees..??

    based on loan 3753 + rates 1200 + insurance 250 = 5203pa rent at 6760 pa = CP $1557

    if you had 20% deposit the number would then stack up even better

    borrow $40k
    repayments $231.67 pm or $2780pa
    outgoing $1220
    total outgoing $4000
    Income $6760
    Return $2760
    Return % on investment ($10k deposit) = 27.6% try and get this return in a bank term deposit..!!

    hope this helps – if your not going to buy the property pm the details and I will..!!

    Cheers

    Not sure about that Jeff. insurance that covers vacancy would be nice. Most policies I know of cover vacancy due to damage and broken fixed term leases.

    The insurances actually covers building insurance in case the thing gets blown away, public liability and stuff like that. The repayments are based on 7.3 % interest only. I have no deposit I am equity based, I have no tax advantage I make no money. This all very well but I have been looking around this site and some people take the view that a property bought at $50,000.00 should rent for $150.00 per week. This would solve all my problems. i just have to look harder. Look at Hughenden west QLD

    Thank you for raising my awarnes about the landlord insurance. I actually did have a vacancy in a unit i own in cairns. i asked the insurance company just then about a claim for a month of vacancy between leases and they said NO. So the expense relating to vacancy allowance stands. What is the insurance actually for ? you would probably be better off cutting that. I guess it is for extreme cases where people don’t pay their rent or trash the place. A good rental mananger should not let this happen anyway..
