Anyone else kind of struggling with this assignment? I don't really know what to do, are you supposed to answer all those 4 questions? I can't see how you could possibly find a 'best' way to finance a $550,000 mortgage on $150 a week. Are we supposed to assume that the person has more money other than the $100,000 inheritance? A bank wouldn't even allow the purchase.

A friend has received an inheritance of $100,000 that will part pay for a $650,000 three bedroom cottage in Brunswick. The friend seeks your advice on how to finance the balance. The friend is in first year Engineering, studies full time, and has a part time job and allowances that just cover existing rent of $150 per week and all other expenses. Advise your friend:
1.   What are the risks and likely returns from the house purchase?
2.   Is it a good decision to make this purchase?
3.   What is the best way to finance the house?
4.   What are the costs and risks of the finance you recommend?
