hi mortgage man,
I would appreciate it if you could also email me the names of draftsman and planner as I am in a similar situation.
Thanks Billyt
[email protected]thanks for recommernding Hans book mini, i have spent the past week or so studying it. There are a lot of good and bad aspects that i can see in relocating. To be honest i am now more inclined to look further into spec homes.
I appreciate everyones responses i really appreciate how much you can learn on this forum.Billyt
thanks clark.
But if i do the work myself with other unqualified friends, do i need to get a owner-builder permit, i.e article page 48 API November 2004.

thanks mini and julie,
I will deffinitly look into the book you recommend mini as i am looking at doing the relocations in N.z.
I understand there are a lot of areas to be wary of when doing such projects, but also believe if done right can be very rewarding.
Thanks Billy T.
thanks for all the resposes, (much appreciated).
In regard to the roof is this normally a problem area? If yes, is it because they take the roof off for transportation?
where you state that the company included a new roof with the purchase was this because the old roof was not worth keeping or because it was going to be damaged during transportation?
Thanks Billy T.
thanks hutch,
realestate.com does not take private listings but i will deffinitly have a look at trading post though.
The guy who was selling the houses was the same guy who does the transportation, he has about 20 houses 4 sale, do you think it is more expensive going through people like this?
Perhaps it would be cheaper to find the house seperatley and then call in the trasportation guys? (what do you think)And good luck with your project.
From looking on the internet i have seen a lot of relocatable houses for sale, e.g resonable 3 rm house, 35k for cost of house, removal and stumping, does this seem resonable?
What should the cost roughly be for removal and restumping alone?thanks
nz = jersey, oz = jumper!
thanks guys,
So basically if i get a line in the contract stating that maintaining the lawns and gardens is the tennants responsibility then that should cover me against any problems??
thanks westan,
i appreciate your constructive comments, they are very helpful.I will be staying with family in browns bay, Auckland to keep my living expenses down, but i will traveling
around the lower south island looking for property.
I cant wait to get back to nz as i am very excited about my new venture and believe there are a lot of opportunities left in nz.Take care
I was lucky enough to recieve excess cash from the sale of assets, i have cash but when i sell my restaurant in melbourne(my last asset) and move back to nz i will effectively be unemployed.
I plan to buy 15 positive properties to begin and then take it from there.
I would rather invest alone than with a partner.thanks for your ideas everyone, anyone else out there with other less conservative ideas, i dont plan on becoming financially free by getting a job.
So what would you suggest monopoly?
thanks guys, youre right it is page 265, i also think i just learnt my 1st investment lesson. Dont read steves books from back to front.
If i had started from the front i would have realised that on page 218 it states that the gross positive cashflow is in fact before expenses are taken into account.i read this 10 minutes after posting my question
sorry to waste your time guys
