Episode 12: Owner-Occupied or Investment - Which Path Should You Take?
In this episode of The Broker’s Lounge, Eddie and Carlo tackle one of the biggest questions for anyone starting their property journey: should you buy an owner-occupied home or dive straight into an investment property?
They break down the pros and cons of both options, giving you a clear picture of what works best for your goals. From government grants and lower interest rates for first-home buyers to the potential for rental income and wealth-building with investments, they leave no stone unturned.
Eddie and Carlo also explore strategies like rentvesting (renting where you want to live while owning an investment property elsewhere) and how to maximize government benefits by turning an owner-occupied home into an investment later.
Whether you're looking for stability and emotional satisfaction with a home of your own or chasing financial growth through property investment, this episode will give you the insights you need to make an informed decision.
Tune in to find out which path suits your lifestyle, goals, and budget!
