    Hi Guys,

    I am after a bit of an advice.
    Currently live in Roxburgh park area. The house is worth around $900k with $300k remaining of the mortgage.
    I have two options:

    1. Sell this and buy in a better area. E.g. Essendon/ Startmore /Pascovale South.
    Advantage: Closer to work. Better school.
    Disadvantage: Older house. bigger mortgage.

    2. Keep this and buy an IP.

    What would you guys think is the better option ?

    Thanks in advance.

    There's just too many unknowns to make a comment..... your tax situation, income situation, savings, disposable income, etc.....
