Put the link up, let us have a squiz, you never know

Is your PM good?

Good guess! I think you are pretty much on the money.

Will time turn back to 30 years ago?

LOL,

If they keep falling JacM and I will be forced to become cash money heroes and buy up all that terrible, terrible property in Camberwell, Kew, Mount Lawley, Manly, all those places where house prices will crash……….

Also since JacM and I also have our tent strategy set up, we will redevelop our properties into tent towns and charge…[Read more]

Good on you Amod!

Keep us posted, sounds like you have a plan!

zmagen,

to quote Freckle – what a load of rubbish! (take it as the lol it is)

So the median (middle) house price went down by 5k. not really a big drop in the scheme of things. The mortgage repayments on something around median is probably $2500 per month maybe. So this equates to 2 months worth of repayments. Not really worth the dramatic…[Read more]

Hi Dan and all,

The guys are all spot on.

I'd add in that you are probably not obligated to sign on a new lease, you will have the option of going month to month. The same lease conditions remain, you'll still need to give the correct amount of notice when you vacate (check with the property manager you you give notice) you may find that this…[Read more]

Why did no one show me this earlier??

i could have been rich….!!

"Drive around at dinner time: No lights in a lot of houses means no one is residing there, and you shouldn’t,either."

LMAO, good one RyanJD

Haha, hey, I was there too, we all were….. now we all have Firefox….

I sold computers and mobile phones from 1999, for many years (trying not to age myself here, feeling old!) and seriously, the tech that has come and gone…. scary.

Cheers

IE…….

Isn't that now living with Netscape……?

You can try Spiro from Planning Vision – Ross@PlanningVision.biz  – http://www.planningvision.biz/

Have a chat, see if he can give you a hand.

Alternately Frank Perry http://www.town-planning.com.au/ can probably give you a hand.

Either way you should get some good advice.

Cheers

Hey ccpat,

Pay up, you're it!!

Landlord is responsible for general maintenance. Also you may like your happy, paying tenants to stay happy, paying tenants.

D

Yeah,

It might cost me a bit to fly to WA, then get a ladder and giddy on up there.

I'll just pay someone

Cheers

Hi Alfresco,

Just pay to get it done. Most managers can set up a yearly clean, add it to the maintenance etc.

We get ours done every year, we have no dramas, it doesn't cost much, and no body gets sued.

It also protects you from having to pay out on a tenants property when a gutter blocks and water floods in through the lounge room window all…[Read more]

I'm surprised they can even sell this with no parking, or have the strata done.

What suburb is this?

Have you been inside it and looked at where you would put a bed, 50 is really a 1 bedder size. Please don't buy this!

Belmont Forum have a sale?

Looks a little big to do fly in, fly out with…… ; D

Hi Dazed,

We had the same thing. As the landlord you are responsible for the property being kept in a secure condition.

You'll need to replace the screens and door, obviously, and the tenants may want you to put more security in place such as security screens or security door, this is at your discretion. If they are good tenants it may be worth…[Read more]

Darn!

It was good, I sat next to JacM, and had some very friendly comments about my shoe choice LOL!

I'm looking forward to Steve's eBook. Should be good, but geez I really do prefer a book with paper pages!

Cheers

Actually, when I was picking up a mini fridge, I saw that the Grays Melbourne warehouse had a stack of front doors. I'll have to check them out too, it's on my list! With grays though the pickup can be be Vic, QLD or NSW so not always easy to get.

If anyone finds snow white quartz stacking stone cheap or Blackbutt flooring can they let me…[Read more]

Hi AJ,

Has Bayswater peaked? Do you think you can pretty much get top dollar at this point and get out with a good profit?

What condition is the TH in? Is it still in almost brand new condition? Have you talked to an accountant to see what kind of depreciation you can get? This made add more dollars into your pocket.

Bayswater is always going o…[Read more]

You get good and bad in all areas!

Considering that DHS have houses in even the ritzy suburbs!

Just understand what you are buying there are some great comments above. The employment thing is important,  one of our tenants have just lost their job and are vacating this month. Get a good property manager an they will know well in advance any hick…[Read more]
