I don’t personally have any experience in this area, but there is a great website based out of Dalby in Qld that might answer some of your questions and seems like a good starting point. It is http://www.dalbyremovalhomes.com.au
The above comments are all excellent. My two bob’s worth:
– for the moment concentrate on the wedding. Two reasons – it is a heck of a lot for one person to plan on their own (and if you work together it will make it that much more special for YOU on the day! There’s no rule set in stone saying that it is ONLY the bride’s day!), and…[Read more]
Thanks Steve. New format looks good so far. Of course it’ll take us all a while to learn our way around the new layout, but that’s always the case with change and if we feared that then we’d never advance would we!
Without knowing the details, and certainly without knowing much about property, I would still caution you about doing something that you feel may have “moral issues”. Sure, you may get a “win” in the short term, but I think one of the most important things in your life is how you feel about yourself. Will you feel good about whatever…[Read more]
Okay – I understand that I may be getting ahead of myself here (I tend to do this!), but I think this is a great opportunity, and perhaps if we just draw a line in the sand and make a date then some more people might come out of the woodwork…
So – how does either Mon 28 Nov or Wed 30 Nov at 7pm sound? Either at my brother’s office (see above)…[Read more]
I just spoke to my brother, who owns a business in Kenmore (Bris western suburbs), and he would be happy for us to use his conference room for our meetings. It’s not so big – perhaps 20 people max – but I think it would suffice at least for the first few.
I would imagine that once monthly would be a good start, and Mon, Wed and Thu…[Read more]
My wife and I live in Spring Hill Brisbane. We’d be very keen to get together every month or so, especially if it is nearby (we don’t have a car!). However, we would certainly make an effort to get there if reqd. Delboy – do you have a venue in mind?
No car – we had a 2000 Commodore VT, but it was costing an arm and a leg in loan payments and fuel, so got rid of it in 2003. Best move ever. We live walking distance from my wife’s work, and walking distance to the train to my work, and walking distance to downtown Bris. So all is good! The amount we save is just phenomenal! We do know though…[Read more]
Thanks very much to all of you who replied. It’s at least a psychological comfort to know that others feel as I do and that I’m not being unreasonable.
I guess I was kind of hoping for someone to get on here and say “oh yes, according to xyz legislation, flyscreens must be installed if requested”(!). Oh well – it still could happen!
Thanks…[Read more]
Thanks very much for your responses. Much appreciated.
If s-i-s is reading this – how were you able to buy 11 properties in under a year? That sounds fantastic! Was it simply because of massive CG in your first one or two, or do you have a “secret”?

If you want the spreadsheet I use to calculate those figures let me know and I will email it to you. Some kind forumite sent it to me a while ago and I’ve found it invaluable.
