I did not think you would find much of a place in Ball. for 160k. If you are happy with it, that all that matters. People dont allways make money on property, you may not loose a lot but it long term. FHOG ending 2010, means less buyers, intrest rates on the way up. A lot of ins and out cost with property. Basic stuff below just an example of your true costs. $5260 stamp duty, intrest on morgage p.a $5000 min (borrowing 100k) carpet $5000, Other reno stuff say $2ooo legals + Tranfer + reg = $1500 total $18,760 approx Plus all the work you put into it. Good thing is you will get a good rental return for it say $210 per week. Concratulations on your purchase and enjoy your home.
