as41, it seems we have been unkind to you on two of the threads you’ve started. Sorry for that! [blush2]
Please can you start again from the beginning with as many of the facts as you know! Like Is it really a brick house? Is it Brick Veneer or double Brick? What condition is it in? Why is the current owner looking to off-load it for free? Why don’t they renovate it? Is it on conrcete or on little stilts? Etc……We don’t often hear of ‘brick’ house being removed as it is very costly and the return is not “better” than building new. The more we know te better the opinion or suggestions will be.

I have just found out that someone at work is trying to get rid of a 3 bedroom room brick house for removal.. Its in good nick, old inside but structurally good. Nothing that a doog makeover wont fix……
I could get it for free and perhaps not even pay removal costs.. . Problem is I dont have a block of land….What would it take to seize this opportunity to perhpaps get a +ve geared IP? Obviously it woudl be easy to buy the land but then the time neede for permits etc.. would take a long time I expect… anyone got any insights or experiences?Snowflake
Well, you could see if the owner will give it to you for free for a time period (ie: gives you 1 month to remove it). You then chase up the local and close house recyclers and see if they are interested in buying the house from you – they come and remove it you collect the money. Something like Martin Ayles has done (as per audio)
Perhaps, to be fair you’d offer the current owner a percentage of the deal – keep the work place relationships nice!
Could be a win-win-win situation! As long as you can find some-one who will buy the house and remove it for you. If not, then it reverts back to the original owner.
Worth a try? It certainly is outside of the square.Cheers

Cheers laurence,
that’s the sort of stuff I’m talking about!I probably still have to top-dress as I don’t want this to re-occurr!
Weed-n-feed should aleviate the initial problem from ‘growing’ thru the sand though!
Cheers

Calvin,Seems you have just laid the turf down, now would be a good time to roll the affected area up, lay some more top soil to create a more even base.
Nah, Auzzie, it’s been down for more than two weeks now. I have been discussing this point with my wife quite passionately for a while, but she wants us to follow the watering instructions to a ‘T’.
I have already backed the watering off quite a bit and, lowe and behold, the Lawn has improved, BUT the bottom corner is still growing algea!
I guess, the opposite to rolling it up and re-levelling would be to top-dress it with some sand. I suppose I was waiting for the magic cure: sprinkle a little of this on your Lawn and …. just add water!Cheers

– Thomas EdisonHi Oz and others,
Calvin I would say that both technically and realistically the problem is yours. the builder is building you a house, not worrying about your gardens. Note that because something is labelled as a “house and land package”, you still bear the responsiblility and are basically a developer, albeit a small one.Thanx for that. I obviously need to look into getting insurance soon as building is due to start in Jan 06.

The Bureau of Meteorology has predicted temperatures to be several degrees hotter than average this summer. The early hot weather we’ve been having is probably a good sign of things to come.As Ausprop has mentioned, weather here in Perth (or WA) has been weird, to say the least! I live in Port Hedland and we normally have a stinker of a time right now but the evenings are still quite cool. During the day it gets up to a balmy 37-40 degrees but at night time it is quite pleasant with mid to high twenties. We got some rain in the general area so it is a bit muggy….[sunny], but you get that!
Thank you for your insight, Giraffe! Welcome back.
Cheers

– Thomas EdisonSorry Snowflake – erm… lets stick with as41!
Go with Derek on this one! While you do that, keep reading keep looking for the next IP, keep doing the numbers! When the time has come where you’ve got the finances, you’ll know it and then you go to the bank and let them know that you can borrow the money – it just up to them how much they want your business as to how good a deal they offer you. You can then let them know when or even If you want to take their offer.
And that is soooooo much more fun!Cheers

– Thomas EdisonHi Steve,
In regards to the RESULTS folder… you now have the option of collapsing that forum so that you don’t need to see any of the posts that are in it.this seems to only work when I am NOT LOGGED-IN! I saw it at first and thought “You beauty!” but that was only before I logged on. Sorry. Does it have anything to do with the:
We do not have the functionality to only show it if you are a RESULTS member.?
Now that I’m getting used to the new lay-out, the differences don’t seem so bad.

don’t get us wrong – Foundation is a very clever person, well educated! there were, how-ever, some issues about how that knowledge was presented, mainly confrontational. It is this that most of us have objected to.Now, foundation still presents a view point that isn’t always ‘mainstream’ but in a way that doesn’t rub every-one up the wrong way, and the information given is received much much better.

I have learned a lot from foundation and enjoy reading the posts as they are often a ‘reality-check’.Cheers

– Thomas EdisonMabbott hi,
not much more I can add, except that women are funny creatures! You invest one ounce in them and they repay you by the pound! And that usually goes both ways.
Invest in your family first (most if not all published investors say that) then invest in other things! Who else are you going to share it with if you have no family?

– Thomas EdisonInteresting read!
From what little I picked up from the TV news, every-one beat up on every-one else! Yet you tell a very different story!
Here in Perth it seems as though my fellow Perthites are going on the same “all-out” bash some-one spree.
makes you wonder how much responsibility the news has to take in their efforts to tell us what is going on and thereby inflaming the situation. Of corse, they’re only telling us what is going on! Yeah, rrrrright!

– Thomas EdisonSorry Steve,
another thought – it would be great if there was a box (similar to “Include Signature”) to allow you to subscribe to the topic you are replying to.Or simply automatically subscribe you to each post you reply to.

– Thomas EdisonHi Steve,
looks flash…..I still think that the R.E.S.U.L.T.S. forums should only come up if you are registered with that program! As in, for myself who hasn’t registered, when I log on I should not be able to see the list of topics posted by that group. I can’t access it anyway and I would have to scroll past it every time I log on. I know this sounds lazy on my behalf, but I feel more like it is ‘rubbing salt in the wound’ as it wasn’t my voluntary choice to miss the program![blush2]
Hope that helps..
Cheers

– Thomas EdisonThat sounds very interesting Ausprop,
I have adopted the view now of just making offers in my own name and doing related party transfers prior to settlement if I have to fick them into another name. they only cost $20.So, you’ sign the O & As in your name then do a pretend onsell to the Trust!? And this costs you only 20 bucks!?
While, …
despite how you word the nominees i.e. “and” “or” whatever between them, the WA state revenue dept has adopted a mentality that all these parties are nominated, so to use just one party means transferring from all the other parties.means that Calvion@34 and/or nominees does what you have mentioned above, just before settlement onsells it to ABC Pty Ltd at a cost of only $20!?
I guess I might need some further clarification….
Cheers
