Hi,
I have the
Ultimate Real Estate ‘Incredible 3 Day Live Event’
Untouched workbook and 10 videos on USB stick.
Happy to sell it, I got a lot from the pack.

I poured a lot of time looking into the Midland area, checking the census and demographic data. This was about 4 -5 years ago when there was a lot of hype about the hospital and medical college.
Not much has changed.
there are a few pockets that are performing well but generally the crime, unemployment and demographic are keeping prices flat. If…[Read more]

Do the tax deductions apply when the property is set up through a trust…[Read more]

Bad news sells papers.
We have all seen it before. A half truth spread through the papers screaming doom and gloom.
As Freckle said US v AU housing economies are chalk and cheese.

Looking for a good broker and lawyer in Perth. Anyone know any?

Im from the west and I have heard of the works going on in redcliffe. It really depends on your situation and whether you have the capacity to hold or if the money could be better invested elsewhere.

Don’t forget about storm water management, headworks (cost ,fees,location) and setback. Become good friends with the local council, they can help a lot (or not). Make sure you can build what you want to build, your mind could be made up for you.

Something that might help you 'sell' the as if complete valuation would be an interior design program that can give you a visual representation of what you intend to achieve.

A lot of people lack the vision to see a finished product from a scope of works, cost summaries or detailed descriptions.
that's where a colour picture can help!

Wow,
Did not realise that.
thank you very much. You have been most helpful.
I will investigate the land tax rulings and charges for WA.
I was under the impression that no land tax was applicable for properties under 400k. (Gov. website)
time to call and ask more questions.

HA!
I have had spruikers contact me for various things in the past.
they always seem to get snippy when you ask for 'unreasonable' things such as;
Facts.
Financial statements.
References.
Nice work Z man!

Thanks for the Breakdown Paul.
From a purely cashflow now! view it could be viable.

guess I have a bit of thinking and further investigating to do.
But if you and Sheree have had no luck converting tenants I don't believe that I will either.

I will do my sums and work out what my cost of action would be. (what I could miss out on while setting…[Read more]

OK. I know what you mean. I wapprebe setting it up under a discretionary trust structure, so changes things a bit. My (back of envelope) calcs. include man. fees, settlement/purchase costs, insurance, rough rates guess, connections, ect..

But that is off topic.
Can I just knock on the door and ask the tenant if they would like to enter into a…[Read more]

what do you mean "income of 50K" ?
280pw x 50 weeks = $14000 gross. (50 weeks, I'm conservative)

Turns out to be about $50+ negative. (without knowing rates, ect…)

My main strategy is to buy and hold, accumulation creates real wealth.
But at this stage I am trying to accumulate cash flow to give up my day job. Anything will help.
How much on average can you chuck on top of current rent for lease to buy option?

that will determine if I decide to dig deeper.
