Since when has the gravitation influences of the moon and sun had a signficant effect on inflation rates?

You can’t reasonably expect to use the regularity of tides (which are not entirely regular anyway – they’re the result of a chaotic system) to establish a…[Read more]

Buy enough CG positive properties that their annual income allows you to buy a free (CG positive) property with a 20% deposit each year.

Repeat.

Ignore everyone advocating buying negatively geared properties – they’re at the mercy of interest rates & government laws on negative gearing &…[Read more]

If they were looking to sell the property I would consider taking it off their hands if there was value in it for me. If there wasn’t value for me I’d let them know so they were aware that there probably won’t be value in it for other investors either, cuts down their market for potential sales.

One of the rules of real estate – always leave a…[Read more]

All your answers are wrong.

Chan,

mamakat,

The legislation is about vendor financing property in the state, not about wrappers who happen to live in SA but wrap elsewhere.

And how did you do that LifeX.

It’s more valuable if you explain it.

While I don’t consider myself particularly salty, Fish – in my experience every method works provided it is properly executed and maintained.

sky_jobe,

Please go out & learn about all the different types of investing before deciding which is right for you – BUT

Be careful not to try to put too many types of investing into action at once – it’s best to focus on an area for awhile before diversifying, avoids stress & reduces risk
