You nailed it. It’s cheap to borrow money and if you have a large deposit you can get a mortgage which your tenants will be paying off. Then you buy another. In Australia you can actually write the interest off as a tax expense. So it lowers your taxable income. With enough maintenance and repairs receipts and a few properties you’ll pay fuck all tax. Awesome way for people with money to make more money.
