I know a freelance house designer who also organises the plans at council and does the tendering.
I am currently using him for the second time, and I know that the builder I used last time through him does 2 storey.

Hi
I have one that I am happy to sell.
I also have a couple of other packages from this site as well as loads of wealth creation, property investing, and general financial and investing books, and the Cashflow 101 game.
You are welcome to contact me at [email protected]  and I will send you a list with prices.
I live in Cannington, W.A. 

Yes, I'm up for a game also if the time suits.  I also have the game myself and I'm ready to sell it…any buyers out there?

I remember reading a “sorry” note from Steve re this problem, quite some time ago. As nothing appears to have changed, I went looking for it recently to see how long ago that note was written, but can’t seem to find it anymore.

I used to visit this site daily, but after it changed to this new set-up I became increasingly frustrated at the amount of time spent waiting for pages to load….in the end I just lost interest and left.

From the current monikers it appears that many others who once regularly made comment here have also disappeared. I now return only occasionally to see if the problem has been addressed…..yawn…

Hi pei.chen
Are you asking for a solicitor to handle your real estate purchases?….here in WA we don’t usually use conveyancing solicitors unless there is a specific need. Instead we use settlement agents who are generally cheaper from what I can tell.

*** This is for you Dazzling – seeing as you’re always on my case to post something. [biggrin]

I’m a Clinical Psychologist. I see clients with a variety of problems – everything from eating disorders, relationship issues, phobias (eg social, blood-injury etc), anxiety and depression, abuse issues, pain management, stress, grief and loss, self-esteem, sexual issues, PTSD, insomnia…. It is very demanding and very rewarding (albeit not financially).
When instructed, I attend critical incidents around Perth, that may include hold-ups, accidents, etc and debrief affected people.
I am also a Justice of the Peace, so witness lots of documents for people, and sometimes get phone calls in the middle of the night from the local police asking me to come down to the station and bail someone out of jail. I have also sat in on (juvenile) interviews (required by law) where the parents refuse to attend. I wonder sometimes what the neighbours must think, as I regularly have police cars coming to my house to witness search warrants etc.
People always ask me, so I’ll get in first – the process of becoming a JP took about 7 months and initially involved my local MP recommending me (this just happened to be Geoff Gallop because we lived in the same locality!), then an Australia wide security check was done on me (came up squeaky clean – not even a parking ticket!) then an interview with the Chief Magistrate of the Court. After that I had to complete a law unit over 1 semester at Uni, including theory and assignments, and finally I was given my “commission” at the Law Courts in Perth.
It is a voluntary position and I sometimes ask myself what on earth possessed me to get involved in the first place (that’s another story). It annoys me immensely that I can’t witness my own documents, and have to run around and find a JP for myself.

I have done many things since leaving school – my first job was as a shorthand typist, I have worked in an electrical store, immensely enjoyed working for an airline – so much fun, interesting work, meeting lots of famous people, and lots of travel, then as an assistant assessor/trainer (I’ve got Cert IV), then as a security guard at an army barracks in freo and at the international airport, uni tutor for undergrad psychology students, and as a administrative temp for various companies – eg I have a data entry speed of 15,720 keystrokes per hour, which is pretty good.
Since completing my Masters in Psych I’ve worked with addicts (drug and alcohol) and people with aquired brain injury (either from attempted suicide or brain disease).

After all of that, my overriding passion is real estate – I live and breathe it daily and it drives my partner crazy, although he happily takes my RE advice and we have both done very well for ourselves.

I am the sort of person who has a hundred things on the go at once or else I get bored. I have always kept myself physically and mental busy and think I’d make a good case study for another psychologist !! [blink]

Yes, I’m hoping to get there. I have a Cashflow game I’ll take along too. The more the merrier.

Must have missed this thread from a couple of days ago, but certainly didn’t miss the “Moderator” tag next to your moniker when I was reading various posts.
Wanted to put the topic back on the front page, so to speak, so CONGRATS.
As always, I do enjoy your no-nonsense, grounded, humourous and helpful replies.
Keep ’em coming.
cheers
Abby
