Prices do not rise in a linear fashion though; there are many factors that influence the rate of growth. Population Growth Interest Rates Government Policies Tax Benefits Supply & Demand Employment Rates Consumer Confidence Economic Growth Finance Availability The best time to invest in property is generally, as soon as you can. So we urge you to act now, by expressing your interest with us today. You may delay, but time will not. Benjamin Franklin

How much income will we need in our retirement years? Many Australians dread thinking about retirement. Most figures state that a cool million dollars is required in order to retire comfortably. This figure excludes the family home, as we will still require a place to live. Let s assume for a moment that you have a million dollars generating a 5% return. That would create an ongoing income stream of $50,000 per annum. So how do you save a million dollars? It s impossible for most people to imagine achieving this by using savings alone. So let s think about this in simple terms. If we purchase an investment property for $500,000 today, then we could expect the market value of that property to grow over time. In fact it would not be unreasonable to see this asset double in just ten years time. This same property would then be worth $1,000,000. This is the simple proven principal of property investment, buy right and hold the asset for the medium to long term. The time to plan for the future is now, when there is still sufficient time to build wealth by allowing your assets to grow. At Porter Davis you will be met with a team of experts that will assist you to fund, purchase and build your investment property and assist you in achieving your dream.

How do I get started if I don t have a deposit saved? The difference between your outstanding mortgage and the current market value of your property is called equity. Under typical circumstances, this equity remains dormant and continues to increase over time. This equity could enable you to leverage into your 1st, 2nd or even 10th investment property. A Choice Home Loans consultant will be able to help determine the equity in your home. Once you have determined the equity in your home, you could be in a position to consider investing in property, without the requirement for a cash contribution. Put simply, you will be releasing the equity you have already built up in your own home. By selecting the right property, this could work to reduce your tax liability, which could assist you in servicing holding costs for the property. Purchase price Equity
Do I qualify for finance? Banks favour lending against property as they generally view property as a secure asset that will increase in value over time. You will need a regular income and a good credit history for a lender to consider funding your investment. If you have your own home, or another property, that has sufficient equity you may be able to borrow the entire purchase price of your new investment property. So instead of allowing your equity to remain dormant tap into this value and have it work hard for you. 15
Rental income: let your tenants pay the mortgage. Owning an investment property can be so much easier than owning your home. Let s not forget about the new income stream you ll generate from your tenants living in your brand new Porter Davis investment property. This additional income stream can go a long way in covering your holding costs. Certain investment properties can even assist you in reducing the mortgage on your own home faster. Maximise your tax benefits. # The Australian Government has generous concessions specifically designed to assist the Australian property investor, as private investors contribute to the Australian housing requirement for tenants. These tax credits can then be used to reduce your taxable income. Porter Davis does not guarantee a level of rental income. Figures and vacancy fluctuate with market conditions. # Porter Davis makes no warranties or recommendations with regard to tax or negative gearing. The information provided is meant as a guide only.
