[biggrin]I would be concerned about the turnover unless that is net profit and in a 3 pub town the population should be at least 1500. We got involved with someone in a pub 2 years ago and got a little burnt by his actions but came out of it okay ans we take over our new place in 2 weeks time. Check out the CUB figures and the spirit sales as…[Read more]

[biggrin]Also try whereis .com.au i have found that one great for looking in QLD.[thumbsupanim]

[thumbsupanim]Well done!!!!!! We have also invested in the same area and have done okay. You are on your way now and all the best

[strum]We had a situation last year when we bought a place with a tennant but it to was run down. We ended up asking the tennent to visit his mum for 2 weeks in nth qld and in that time we didnt charge him rent and we did all the reno’s and then got it revalued. When he got back he was rapt at what we had done and he started paying the extra $10…[Read more]

[biggrin]i still love the fact that we have acess to these people and i dont believe that they do the wrong thing. if we get private messages we have the choice to delete them and i am sure that we get a lot worse from other sorces. Great to have these people online and Steve i think you got it wrong as i love getting info from these brokers.

I have had 2 very good chats privatly with 2 brokers and not at any stage have they said come with them and yet in fact they have…[Read more]

[specool]We had a situation ealier in the year where 2 vals that were done on 2 places in QLD came in at the same price we paid 14 & 18 months before. After speaking to the valuers they reckon that the market in this area had dropped by 50% in the last 6 months!!! The area is still the hottest spot in s.e. QLD and i reminded them that 2 units in…[Read more]

[rolleyesanim]You have not tasted my vindoloo!!!!!!!

[strum]You can go to a new accountant and relodge a return providing you have all relevant document as we did that a few years ago.you must find one that deals in property though. Chefman.

[biggrin]We only pay 6% but that is all inclusive and we have an agreement with the agent that any repairs up to $120 they do without calling us. Anything major they call and ask us what wqe would like to do. have never had a problem with our PM.

[suave3]We always check with the bc on the building cover as you just never know and we always check that it is up to date. With landlord insurance we use BOM as they have a very good product for landlords and in a recent claim we had where the tennant killed himself they covered the cost of the clean up as he had been there for a week before the…[Read more]

Hi Everyone,

I provided the back up needed to show why i believe that they are worth more than what they put down and the board have agreed with me that we should have get…[Read more]
