    I was also shocked when i saw this on ACA.
    After the owner had payed the money for the reno DVD set and attended many of her seminars.

    But there must of been more to the story, also probably didnt help she payed all the tradies cash either! So she had no real come back.

    Cheers,

    I thought of this idea sometime ago aswell, and was greatly disappointed to find out it wouldnt work The big items like your insurances (LL and Building) / Reno costs are payed by CC, you can rank a few thousand just there.

    Hi Terry,Thanks for clearing that, but does a 'home office' need to be a seperate room of the house? ie second bedroomOr could you get away with having a study of the side of the living room?Thanks againRegards,Adrian

    Maybe a silly question but thought id askDoes the QS report have to be completed before this FY ends?ie. if i was to organise it now, as someone above said it takes about 6 weeks (so July sometime) could i use this in FY 11 – 12?Cheers

  • a_d_r_i_a_n replied to the topic Lino or floorboards – shower screens in the forum Value Adding 12 years, 5 months ago

    Laying floating floorboards can be a relatively cheap solution, If you have someone handy in the family. They are easily installed and using the lower end of the pricing range per sqm could do the trick.Just food for thought..

    Thanks Terry for your advise.In general – I have been told that you have more leverage when dealing with the lender directly. As when dealing with a broker you do not have the personal presence, and they are the middle man. If i am incorrect please advise :)
