Tomori,

Speak to at least 2 agents if not more.
Make sure they do not flog you for seperate advertising costs. Even if they do not sell they will bill you for that. Get them to roll all their costs into one fixed fee or percentage and make this INCLUSIVE of gst.
Remember you are hiring them.
Dont neccesarily go with the cheapest. Sometimes the…[Read more]

It might pay to get copies of local papers. For the price you are looking at will be in the outer areas.
Try also looking in the trading post, there is plenty there on a FT basis.
You might want to aslo place your own add in the local paper or TP.

Stick to what you planned initially.
You had a plan in place and it was a good one dont let the ral estate agents poison your mind.
I would be very supprised if you could not get the same or more for that property after you finish what you wanted to do. You will also be better off for the experience.

GE finance or AGC.
just remeber it will show on your credit rating.
Depending on how imaginitive you are will depend on how you can explain it.
The answer to your question is yes i have done this quite often to get me thru settlement.
and yes i am imaginitive to a certain extent.

You could try a non conforming lender at a slightly higher intrest rate they will not charge MI. Say someone like GE mortgage solutions. Your finacials and the amount you borrow will determin the IR.

Did not read all the posts but did anyone mention Bendigo. Have been watching for some time and it looks very attractive. Some areas in and around the city are x comm areas and are starting to come out of their shells. It has it’s own economy so there is no reason to get stuck on the whole travel time to melb thing.
Me I have bought 36 acres in…[Read more]

Jaqui,

My personal opinion is keep youw own home seperate from you investments, if you want to CC investment properties in the future thats o.k.
Have you got a solicitor, it’s ok to get financial advice from your accountant I would hear your banker but not listen. Ask your soicitor the reason you keep your personal assets seperate from your IP’s.…[Read more]

If the buyer can provide a letter from the financier that they did not obtain finance and is dated on or before the new extension date then there is nothing you can do. If they cannot provide documentation then you need to call your solicitor and keep on it as you should be intilted to the deposit paid. Bare in mind that if it is unconditional…[Read more]

Employee based workshops at IBM were encouraged to push the boundries. One such operating system was similar to windows for desktops. The group had trouble convincing the beancounters that it would be viable. IBM did not forecast the explosion of P.cs so instead committed to business systems. The programme was binned. BG and friends pulled it out…[Read more]

Mark,
I would keep the property you have. Loan against it to purchase a couple of investment properties. you could lend up to 80% val of your home and after you settle on you investment properties you can keep the cash left over. Sounds too good to sell. Remember to sell, 4-6 weeks on market then 30-60 days to settle. With a refinance you could…[Read more]

Just to throw my two bobs worth in. If you have sufficent services at your property you can buy a pretty well maintained property to move to the block of land. You can get them anywhere from nothing to $5000 depending on qaulity. Say a house for $5k with permits, transportation re blocking at your property services and a repaint e.t.c…[Read more]

You are going to struggle with something on the eastern side for 100pw.
I have a unit in sunshine that will be available next week 11th april. It is in the Albion region. It is listed for 110pw. But looking after the wise of the community we can certainly reduce it.
It is about 5 min walk to main shopping centre close to albion station and…[Read more]

Did he mention the one where if you stael someone elses programme and use your monopoly power on an industry you could become the richest man in the world. (sorry 2nd richest). Only people who i can respect i will listen too. He is in that place only because THEY want him there.

Purplekiss,
Just to add to your post, we recently bought a 4bedr in an area packed with 3bedr’s. The house was a shocker.While we were doing our standard inspection before settlement we ran into a nice couple outside who were dying to rent a 4 bedder as there were none on the books in the area. We ended up renting to them privatley for $25 pw more…[Read more]

jarrn,
What book are you reading, who is the author. He/She must have very few areas of interest to invest in if that is what they are preaching. Hear what they have to say in the books but don’t neccessarily listen. Do your own maths sometimes instinct comes from research.

Just more propaganda by THEM to scare and stun the poor masses into doing what they’re good at. Sitting on our hands and doing nothing.
