    many of you bagged me last year when i bought an IP on the NSW Central Coast of Lake Haven.
    12 months later and i sold it for more than 50k over the purchase price.

    Of course i have CGT to pay but i could not refuse that offer !!

    Im back on the hunt again ... Back to the Northern part of the Central Coast.
    Im staying away from the Southern part and Newcastle areas and my local area of Darlinghurst .

    Good stuff DB, glad it worked out. Was that the one with the old kitchen taps?

    What sort of net profit do you think you will have made after purchasing costs, stamp duty, cgt and selling costs? Would you do it again?

    Check out Park Ridge if you are in market. Its gentrifying ... apparently. Ask @Tekoz if you need help

    You are still giving everyone chance to bag you.
    Selling over the purchase price and making profit off that investment are two different things.
    There are stamp duty, legal, selling costs, etc to be factored in.

    Good stuff !

    So give us some details to understand the deal.

    So what were the figures for the buy and sell and how long did you have it for ?

    Also, how long on the market and what were the other offers ?

    you sold an IP that will probably incur CGT and when you go to buy again you will now re-incur buying costs, probably not the smartest move, but who knows.

    True, when you factor in stamp duty, conveyancing etc...
    And very true.

    Why not wait to hear if DB wants to provide more info before sniping? So typical of some on here, holding on to a negative property for years, pouring in cash whilst boasting about dubious net gains gets a big pat on the back. Selling and paying down debt though...what a loser. Usually hear this from giants who've been investing for 5 minutes and never seen a downturn.

    Purchased for 305k in September 2015 , sold in July 2016 for 349k. It's not even a year. No cgt discount. Plus 10k stamp duty. Plus at least 6k selling costs. Plus interests (if mortgage) . Don't think there is anything interesting

    Only the OP knows that, if they were given half a chance to reply without being mocked by people who know zero about the situation. Maybe selling was the best decision for them, you don't actually know.

    eeekkk....I thought that was part of his post and tied up with the rental side...

    DB 50k is probably not worth it IMO, and seeing Sydney is still going, pretty sure it would have grown more. But if you end up with 10 or 20k, it is still $$$ realised.

    PS I too thought it was under a year.

    mmm, seems people happy to bag DB, yet those taking on debt in a dead market are heroes, who is the biggest fool?

    Who are you referring to?

    No matter. Central coast prices are still rising so it'd be interesting to know the reason for selling. Lake haven market slows down or soft rental? I think overall cc prises are rising and so is Newcastle.
