As a general rule any investment loan should be taken on an interest only basis and any surplus cash that results from this interest only investment loan structure should be applied to repay non-deductible personal loans or put aside as savings for future personal use.

This is what is commonly known as negative gearing on an investment.
By researching the investment loan properly an investor will soon discover that it is not just the interest rate on a mortgage that can deliver cost savings and consequently a better overall return on the investment property.
