If you get into trouble for saying dick, what happens if you call someone a pussy?

Hi Guys,

Some really good info. I guess I’m just feeling restless and keen to jump in head first. You are right I need to wait a little until I get the divorce soughted.

But it’s hard when you see an old (but tidy) fibro house in the middle of a 1400m2 block that no one likes because it’s not modern, new, or fancy. I think “Build new brick piers and pick the house up and move it to the left boundary fence, and put a fence up the middle, and PRESTO an extra block of land and $360,000 capital” Borrow against that $360,000 to build a house on the new block and hardi plank the old fibro place.

TerryW: Yes $266,000 mortgage on BOTH properties

Hi Dean,

Thanks for your reply. But you shouldn’t draw a conclusion with only limited info. I didn’t use a condom because when I married my wife I had every intention of getting her pregnant because I wanted a family. I never regret having my kids, I love them like you wouldn’t believe. When we married I brought $600,000 equity + $200,000 cash to the marriage, my wife brought nothing. 4 years into the marriage my wife demanded I sell both properties so we could buy a better house closer to work, buy a $90,000 car and go on an overseas holiday (all this to out do her sister). She didn’t understand about capital gains tax, losing rent etc.

When I said “No, wait until June ’16 and the inheritance I will receive will payout the mortgage, and the $750 week rental income will pay for the fancy house/catr/holiday” she packed up and left, took the kids, and refused to talk to me in marriage counselling. She demanded a $400,000 settlement and took an AVO out on me, which automatically suspended my Firearms Licence that I need for work (I work for Armaguard) and stopped me from seeing my daughter 3 years and son 4 months. I haven’t been able to work or see my kids for the past 9 months.

Is it unethical to minimize child support? A lot of people minimize tax that pays for hospitals and schools. I don’t think it’s unethical in my situation because I know my wife will spend it on herself going out to cafe’s with friends etc. When she first left I visited the in laws to find grandma looking after the kids why she was out socializing. I had to go and buy some nappies for the kids because grandma was down to the last one. If I knew my wife was going to spend it on the kids I’d have no problems paying. The way I see it, every dollar I withhold and invest now, is $5 they’ll have towards a university education or a house of their own.

Summary:
– Demanded I sell houses cashing in $600,000 equity + $200,000 Cash
– When I said “No” Left me, and wouldn’t let me see the kids
– Took out an AVO costing me my job
– Put Caveats on the houses so I couldn’t refinance to draw back a little to live on
– Can’t claim Newstart Allowance because I have to much in assets.
– Demanded $400,000 settlement after 4 years of marriage even though she contributed nothing before or during marriage
– Had a $80,000 pa job to go back to. But hasn’t gone back, so she can claim Single Parent benefit, and legal aid, and avoid paying me child support

Now this isn’t a relationship forum, it’s a property investment forum.

The broker said another 500k house wouldn’t be a problem. But I was hoping to buy 3 houses with 50k deposit and 50k safety net. Serviceability seems to be the main concern with my 2 casual jobs, and as explained above, lack of income for the past 9 months.

I think they’ve reliable Yuly, maybe they’re just busy? And maybe they’re busy because they’re good at what they do?

Called the council. It's R3 medium density. Now All I gotta do is find all the minimum street frontages, setback and easments etc. I'm pretty excited abou this. 1270sq metres. I wonder what I'll get on it?

Oh, and a third thing. Tahmoor needs a new bathroom and kitchen urgently. 20k on a make over would increase value to ~380k
