    Hi,

    A 2nd-year student enrolled in a 5-year medical degree. I'm currently saving up for a deposit to buy an investment property for rental income. I would like to know what is a good figure to save up to or how I should go about determining a savings goal during university.

    I would also like to know special loans a JMO might receive e.g. 95% LVR no LMI if that's a thing.

    Thanks.

    Aim for 15% as medicos can get 90% no lmi loans, but you will need to graduate first I believe.

    reason? As opposed to capital gains?

    If your working at the moment and qualified, than can get 95 no LMI P&I OO loans with ANZ.

    If you buy relatively cheap and avoid stamp duty, the deposit requirements aren't too significant. I.e. an existing property to live in for 650k incurs nil stamp duties at the moment, with a ~35k deposit to cover costs. As you adjust your purchase parameters, stamp duty begins to kick in, adding to the deposit requirements to save up for.
