Investing in real estate - questions for a new acquisition

I have some questions about an investment, which I want to make. I can buy a studio with 60k (including the acquisition price+furniture +all the others costs). I can do that using 5k from my pocket and the rest I can borrow; to borrow I have more options: 1. 0 downpaiment (and I bring as guarantee an other property I have) and for the rest I can take a mortgage and here I have also 2 options: a. interest fixed for 3 years - 7.9 and after that it’s variable (an variable parameter “x”+3.4) for 27 years b. variabile - “x”+2.4 for 30 years; “x” changes every quarter and now it is 5.9 2. 25% downpaiment and for the rest a mortgage with the same options I mentioned above: a. interest fixed for 3 years - 7.9 and after that it’s variable (an variable parameter “x”+3.4) for 27 years b. variabile - “x”+2.4 for 30 years; “x” changes every quarter and now it is 5.9

Now I have the 5k, but if I have to put 25% down, then I have to wait to save the money. If I put 0 downpaiment, I will have negative cash flow, and the rent will not cover the mortgage (but I have other properties so, I can pay the difference easily fom there).

The rent per month would be around 300 euro. I know that the property does not respect 1% rule but that is the market in which I am. What do you advice? Thanks

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

warning about Biggins and Scott Brunswick

his is a general warning for people who use this agency to rent a property. I am going to share a disgusting experience that I had with the above agency. I was new to the rental experience after a marriage breakdown so I answered a add on Real Estate .com and met a guy in Maribyrnong to look over a apartment . He suggested he was not only going to be my roommate, but he also worked at the company in Brunswick. All looked good and myself and a lovely lady moved in to the apartment in late March. Everything was going well ,we were paying our rent and things were moving forward with 3 people coming from different age groups and different upbringings. Then on the 25th of June out of nowhere 3 Breach Notices appeared on my email from my roommate but on Biggins and Scotts letterhead. I was completely surprised and after trying to reason with the sender of these documents, I then decided I had to call his boss the Director of Biggin and Scott in Brunswick. David told me that he was ...
