    HI Simon,

    It was done legit, there’s no way I would put myself nor my broker at any risk.

    (to ease your mind I”m with a non confirming and paying A HIGH RATE the property was just to good to let go).

    cheers

    Hi Simon,

    11 month’s ago I purchased on a lodoc, Had 20%+stamp duty.
    Plus I had only been trading in my business for 12 month’s couldnt really show much at all, I must admit it was a pain in the neck to get it through but it was successful.

    I guess I was fortunate with the broker I used, he’s very experienced in the IP WORLD.

    There probably sourcing information from non conforming lenders.(Which by the way, one is starting to advertise on T.V).

    I’m in the service industry, I understand your concern.

    cheer’s

    Hi Mad cat,

    I’m in the game and its just as hard for me, try realestate.com.au or perhaps your local community paper.

    Most of them will be at Auction though.

    Hi Guy’s

    Well thats a little scarey to know,Why wouldnt SOME agents place there listing on the open market, yes I understand that sale’s rep’s might have existing clients.
    I wouldnt like to be on the other side of the phone with a vendor who is about to pay good money to have there property advertised and pay commission only to find out there agent has been slack.

    I guess each to there own,

    Hi Helen,

    realestate.com.au is pretty much the best site available to search for new listing’s.

    When an agent list’s a new property they first place it on there site, it then gets exported to realestate.com.au

    So basically every new listing should be on realestate.com

    Hope this has been of help

    cheers

    Hi Yorker,

    I’m an agent nearby, I believe this area has a long way to go.

    Penrith with the ADI SITE, and Blacktown is booming, plus the new shopping centre being built in Blacktown.

    Put it this way, I know a major player who has invested alot of money in this area.

    Well done.

    Regards

    Joseph

    Hi redwing,

    I have to agree with darren, level blocks arent particularly great when the time comes to subdivide.Make sure the block slopes to the street,If it doesnt and your truley buying for this potential WALK AWAY from it.

    goodluck

    Hi DD,

    I would make sure with your solicitor/conveyancer about those fee’s and also the rebate if your property doesnt sell.

    I’m an agent and dad was a solicitor, Most solicitor’s would ask for upfront disbursements ie
    ct, 149 cert, sewer diagram, dp etc.

    Just make sure, before you get stung.

    Hi Kevin,

    I’m an agent although at one time i gave it a rest, And in those 5 years I didnt look after my properties, you dont want the hassle, people often talk and say how easy it is WELL its all roses when things go to plan believe me when they stop paying GOODLUCK getting in contact with them,
    plus the time it consumes its not worth the trouble.
    A week ago a couple walks into my office and they want me to look after there property I thought great new business, Yeh Right once we sat down and discussed it there tenant for 13 Years was behind from june this year wouldnt return there call knock on the door numerous times no answer even though they were home etc.
    I personally delivered a notice to terminate and guess what the rent started to come in.

    Think before you do it.NEGOITATE WITH THE AGENT.

    Goodluck

    Joe

    Hi tony,

    I’m an agent from sydney, if your wanting to come to sydney to buy or open an agency, do yourself a favour and buy some sort of a rentroll honestly since our state government introduced this stupid exit tax investors have literally disappeared of the face the earth.

    Although great time to buy if your wanting to wrap properties.

    Goodluck
