marriage in 7 months' time.

Two years ago, Ary bought an investment property for $220,000 (borrowing $170,000). Other than $10,000 in a savings account, Ary does not have any other investments.

Christine has $20,000 invested in term deposits.

They are unsure what their living arrangements will be once they marry and have come to you for advice. Currently they are considering:

·      Selling Ary's investment property and using the proceeds to buy their own home;

·      Using their savings as a deposit and borrowing additional funds to acquire a home to live in;

·      Moving into the investment property for a couple of years before selling it and buying a bigger home;

·      Renting a property for next five years and continue investing their savings.
