    So I've purchased a property in rural Victoria for my parents to live in for 5+ years, what is the best method regarding gearing? Property was $275k and they are happy to pay me $300 per week. Am I better getting half that in cash so I don't pay tax and can negatively gear or just pay off the loan as quickly as possible? As its an investment I'm not eligible for FHB grant

    Any advice/thoughts would be greatly appreciated
