📋 Assumptions

  • Rental income and associated fees (strata, council rates, utilities) increase at similar rates, keeping net cash flow relatively constant over time
  • Home loan interest rate remains fixed throughout the loan term
  • These results are obviously not going to be super accurate over time as all the values will fluctuate but it should give a much more reasonable analysis for comparison
