π Property investor activity is the highest it's been in years πβ£
β£
Across Australia, more new home loans are going to investors. π‘β£
β£
Thatβs the word from PropTrack. πβ£
β£
It says rising investor activity is being driven by low vacancies, a tight rental market and rapid rent increases. π₯β£
β£
Strong growth in home prices saw more than 93% of recent investor sales turn a profit. π°β£
β£
Thatβs the highest level in a decade. β£
β£
Property investors may also be able to make interest-only payments. π‘β£
β£
That can be a real plus for cash flow. β£
β£
Talk to us about potentially using your home equity in lieu of a cash deposit to buy a rental property. πβ£

π‘ The big advantage of owning rather than renting π‘β£
β£
They say rent money is dead money (unless you're the one collecting it!) π
β£
β£
And while not everyone is in a position to own their own home just yet, a recent Cotality report shows there are still locations where it can be cheaper to buy an apartment than rent. πβ£
β£
In inner Melbourne, and some suburbs in Darwin and the ACT, it can be cheaper to buy, rather than rent, a unit. π’β£
β£
There can also be minimal differences between rent and loan repayments in parts of Sydney, Adelaide and Perth. β£
β£
But home ownership isnβt just about rent versus mortgage payments. β£
β£
Home owners can also potentially benefit from property price growth, the freedom to add value through renovations, and the personal rewards of saying βI own thisβ. π β£
β£
Talk to us about jumping off the rental merry-go-round and becoming a home owner. πβ£
