Im not sure u can compare the 2 churches. A church needs some old charactor i believe b4 it can be converted into a pub or so alike. Here in Adealide we even have a night club called The Church, and u guessed it, it was a church once in the city square that has been converted into a very popular nightclub.

thanks Sue for your reply……yes its for Tassie

Regards Bear

I agree Mortagage Hunter , but im in SA the property is in Tassie and i was having trouble tracking down the papers, so i just thought it would be quicker and easier to give it to the agent.

How wrong i was ……..LOL, i dont think any thin shonky is going on tho , its just they seem very laid back there……….LOL

Only one agent covers this area.

i know the tenant wants to stay, i have spoken to him and he panicked when i said i wanted to buy it that i may change tenants. I think its just slackness on the agents part to which im paying good money for and losing money actually while im delaying the settlement

I find the locals often say things like this, as I did about a developing area nearby myself full of housing trust homes that I thought were over priced. Its now a nice little area with good cp being made. I have recently been to Burnie and with my due diligence I believe it will continue to grow. I also know people that have invested…[Read more]

Well, Bear is my real time nickname I got about 20 years. I got nicked for a few reasons, my real name is Peter and in my circle of friends there were about 6 Peters. When u hang in the bike world, it’s pretty common to get nicked. 1964 is my year of birth and when I 1st started going on the net many years ago most places the nick Bear was t…[Read more]

Hi eskimow007 and welcome to the forum

Personally, I don’t think u can go wrong with Burnie, I think that place is on the go for a bigger CG hit.

Pros of land over house no maintenance bills.

Con no rent.

It’s an individual thing, but personally I think Burnie is a good place to be investing at present. Having said that u really need to do you…[Read more]

Pisces explained it pretty well. From what I have seen is they usually seem to be open space to. For instance the church im looking at that has already been converted into an executive type house has a mezzanine floor into one huge main bedroom. It has a banister upon the edge to stop u walking off but u can lean up against it and look down…[Read more]

Tip no

1) When u want to paint find the colour u want and instead of buying it, ask the shop what the cheapest good base is, (usually not name brand) and have that tinted, usually about 1/3 of the originals paint price. Keep the tinting code for further reference and touching up.

2) Building recyclers, have every thing from shower cubicles, to…[Read more]

I like your thinking Mini

Mini,

I know many agents myself and well put it this way, the last few years by their own admission they have become arrogant. Why? Cos they receive 200 calls plus a day from investors wanting the bargain of a lifetime. As they said to me, they are arrogant coz they can be in the current market. Wait for the market shift that is about to happen…[Read more]
