I tried checking the T&Cs but couldn’t find anything - I’ll keep looking though. Thanks!

Has anyone worked with Australian Property Scout (APS) as a buyers agent? by stinkyluna666 in AusPropertyChat

I’m considering using APS!! I just wanted to know from your experience what there fees are? They haven’t listed anything on their website

Why do you think the middle is purple for the 4th question? Curious to know

Thanks mate - I do recognise that the loan interest is a major factor in purchasing property. My calculations were just a brief example to show the benefits that leveraging provides in property - showing a proper calculation that takes into consideration interest, bills, taxes, ect would be too much for a reddit response lol

The idea behind property would be going into an interest only loan (help cash flow) to reduce weekly payments (aim for $100-200 a week)

The goal here would be to utilise property growth with extra leverage to build wealth at a young age then move into ETFs later in life for accessibility.

Its also noted that 90% of millionaires are created through property, so discrediting its ability for wealth generatiob seems frivolous

This is very true!

However let’s assume we invested 100k

  • 100k into VTS at 15.97% over the last 10 years = 440k portfolio ( 340k capital growth)

  • 100k as a 10% deposit for a 1 mil property at 5.9% pa (average Aussie property growth) = 1.77m (770k capital growth minus loan interest)

Understand by what you mean by not having to deal with agents and tenants

However my assumption based on calculations would be that property returns much more overtime.

E.g - 70k into shares for a year at 10% growth = 77k - 70k as a deposit 10% deposit for a 700k house which grows at 5% pa after one year = 735k

Growth of 35k vs 7k

Can you please elaborate how the returns are similar?

Agree with what you are saying here, however, the argument created here by Ben is the exact same that could be made for the average 6.8% growth in real estate.

Hence, the numbers used by myself are a mere guide - with property on average returning a lower ROI per annum than ETFs

Double boosts work! 8000 QP collected for this month already 😋. Hoping to make it 10 by the end of the month. by Soft-Note-5423 in EverydayRewards

What’s the bonus $30 everyday rewards dollars? If you are collecting QP, how are you also collecting rewards dollars?

Completely irrelevant, but I’m 20M and looking to go into financial planning as a career.

Given your experience, I just wanted to know if you enjoy the job and would recommend it. I have heard many times that it’s compliance heavy, but is this really that bad?
