    Hi everyone,

    I found this forum from Google and I'v already checked few posts. It's very informative.

    I would like to do some research and buy an IP before November this year. I want to use the equity that I'v got on my PPOR as a down payment of the IP.
    My long term goal is to retire on rental income in 15-20 years.

    I am pretty sure that I can learn a lot from you guys.cheers

    Welcome aboard :)

    When using equity in your home just be sure to not cross up your loans.

    Cheers

    Jamie

    What sort of income are you looking at to retire on?

    December can be a bad time for finding a tenant due to the silly season. January should be better if people are timing moves with the return to school. Just one thing to bear in mind with a purchase at the end of the year.

    Not a showstopper. Just a consideration.

    December can also be a good time to buy as vendors get desperate to sell before Christmas...
