Hi all!
I own two places - one PPOR, and an IP in western Sydney, which is negatively geared just over $200 after tax - which I think is quiet a bit. I now want to start considering regional and offset the negative gearing against it prior to purchasing in Sydney.
I have the following questions:
Thanks heaps!

I own two places - one PPOR, and an IP in western Sydney, which is negatively geared just over $200 after tax - which I think is quiet a bit. I now want to start considering regional and offset the negative gearing against it prior to purchasing in Sydney.
I have the following questions:
- I know numbers have to stack up - but how positive does a property need to be for you to purchase it? (and take on the risk of owing away from home?)
- What are the other factors you consider - apart from employment (esp mining towns!)?
- I am prepared for low CG, however if the property costs less than the comparatives, are banks generally conservative when it comes to revaluing properties for a top up?
- I am hoping to have 95% LVR - do you think the banks may have an issue with a regional being 95% LVR, regardless of it being positively geared?
- Do you have an exit strategy? E.g. for mining towns?
Thanks heaps!
