There is lots of interest right now about GEARING. And for some negative gearing is a part of life for Australian investors and seems to be the trendy property term used across the media right now.
What is gearing?
Simply put – means borrowing money to buy an asset. In property terms – you have taken out a loan to purchase a property.
Negative Gearing: the interest you are paying is more than the income. Running at a loss.
Netural Gearing: the interest and the income are the same.
Positive Gearing: the interest is less than the income. Making a profit.
