    Everyone

    I have sat back and watched this forum for some time and received so much info.  The real interesting thing is that these forums are generally for the basic investor to medium investor, now we have professional experts, developers and no doubt financiers making comments.  mmmmm.  Interesting, are we making comments and getting business?

    Anyone can make money in anything that they chose provided they stick to it, educate themselves and take some calculated risks.  If that fails make yourself a self promoted expert, write a book and run a seminar.

    If that is a cynical approach so be it but in the time this forum has gone on I have restructured my business and increased its income by 50% (about 1mil), made cash available of $200k and paid over $50k of personal debt off.

    All I can suggest is take the info review it and see if it is in line with your strategies, chose good advisors (I am in RESULTS and would recommend it and no I am not getting any $$ for comment, I will leave that to radio announcers).  THEN above all, take action.

    Every day to don't move forward you are moving backwards.

    This is the never ending struggle with dealing with public servants (I used to be one for 19 years).  I agree with the concept of getting professionals to help (I know it costs money at the beginning but can save more of it in the end).
    When looking for a good town planner see if they used to work for Council (as a lot of then did at one stage and if they are recent and "play" in that zone a lot they will be of great assistance.

    Apart from that in NSW there is a process of pre review, which costs a few $$ but can save you from getting very detailed plans.  Some Council encourange this.

    Finally, if you use the proper professional and they get it all wrong you can have a fight over their fees etc as the should be insured for negligent action.

    Hope this helps
