Its Questions and Answers time! Thanks for all the suggestions on new topics to cover in this podcast. For today’s episode, Bryce Holdaway and Ben Kingsley will be addressing questions from:

High Loan to Value Ratio (LVR) question from Andy : As a relatively new investor, would you recommend gearing as many of my initial purchases at 90-95% LVR as possible to help get ahead early on and do you foresee a lot of the banks starting to restrict this type of lending going forward with the interest rates currently so low. If you do recommend it, how do we best manage the risk for the first few years until the properties grow and loans come down to the 80% mark?
Capital Gain Tax (CGT) question from Paul : It would be great if an episode could cover “capital gain tax“. I have recently had to sell an investment property due to lifestyle decision but didn’t incur any charges as it was my first place. In future if I have to sell to upgrade to a bigger investment It would be great to know the CGT laws in each state.

Cross Collaterisation from Andrew : In recent Episode 20 you touched on cross collateralisation and while it is not the best option, I was wondering if you could expand on where you might need to use, why you would use it, to what extent would you use it and how would you un-cross collateralise your portfolio?
SMSF and Property from Billy : I’m interested in using a Self Managed Super Fund to invest my super in property. I’d like to hear your opinions on this subject. Would you recommend SMSF Property or not?

This week on The Property Couch podcast, Bryce and Ben talk about planning ahead and have an Exit Strategy when investing in property. As Stephen Covey once said, “Begin with the End in Mind”. We think this concept can be applied to property investors as well.

Now, there are a few exit strategies out there and as we’ve always emphasized, each household is unique and hence each investor’s exit strategy would be different. But generally, there are two main categories; either you buy and sell or you buy and hold. Under these categories, there are sub-categories and different scenarios where it’ll suit you better. Bryce and Ben will be discussing about these exit strategies today so make sure you tune in!

Also, the Money Magazine Cover Story that we have been talking about is out. Grab one off the Newsstand today and let us know what you think!

022 | Q&A – Building & Pest Inspection, Rentvesting and Next Wage Growth Hotspot

By The Property Couch July 31, 2015 in Hot Market Tips, Podcast, Q&A

Its Questions and Answers time! Thanks for all the suggestions on new topics to cover in this podcast. For today’s episode, Bryce Holdaway and Ben Kingsley will be addressing questions from:

Building and Pest Inspection question from Mark : How do I find a good quality building and pest inspector and with the property market being so hot with auctions at the moment, how do I ensure I don’t burn through my deposit money when constantly missing out at auctions? I could end up wasting thousands on inspections until I actually win at auction! Should I try doing it myself and find a friend or family member with some building knowledge or use one of the smartphone apps?
Rentvesting question from Ryan : What are your thoughts on the property investor him or herself to buy and live in their own PPR or to rent? Obviously both have advantages, a place to call home or the ability to keep investing with out loosing potential borrowing capacity.
Next Wage Growth Hotspot from David : As mentioned on previous podcasts, investors will want to avoid “glass ceilings” in terms of capped wage growth in certain areas. Given the changing Australian economy (more knowledge-based), are there particular areas of Australia in which you expect to see wage growth occurring?
