    I'm currently seventeen and just about to enter my last, but short high school term of the year and my life. I also currently reside on the Gold Coast in Queensland and am hoping to migrate north to Brisbane next year to study a Bachelor's Degree in Business Management; majoring in Real Estate & Development at the University of Queensland.

    Keeping this question rather short and precise, is it POSSIBLE that I could invest in any sort of property with potential next year and over the next couple of years while I'm still at uni? Bearing in mind that I will be moving out to live with a number of friends in a flat/apartment which will also result in additional expenses such as bills, food, etc.; however, since midway through last year I've adopted a rather robust interest in the realm of property – investing and development – and I'm adamant that this is the path I will take towards my futue. 

    I know that I will be on a very limited budget aided by a part-time job, but i'm very motivated to make my goals a reality and persist with whatever is required to begin my property investment portfolio while simultaneously studying at uni. 

    I have highly ambitious goals and want to attain wealth and financial independence at an uncommon age (30-45) so that I can enjoy the greatest leisures of life. Ultimately, I hope to be a owner/co-owner of a property development firm after the completion of my university course, but I'd still be eager to maintain and accumulate a very respectable property portfolio too, so is it possible that a first year (or any year) uni student could begin their IP portfolio?

    I know i strayed away from my question a bit, but I'm just adding some background info so that I can recieve the most accurate responses as possible.

    Thanks for advice in advance,

    A young and highly ambitious soon-to-be property investor & developer.

    Hi there

    Welcome aboard.

    If you can show the lender a deposit, an ability to service the debt and their happy with your employment conditions and the type of property you're purchasing, then yes – it's possible to buy an IP.

    Cheers
