    Hi Discus

    yep got to agree go and see a broker. it doesnt cost anything and they are there to get the best deal for you they get paid for finding a loan for you so they are not like a bank with little catch clauses to elimante you. make an appointment and sit and talk with them and its agood idea to take a note pad a pen because your head will be swimming when you get out of there to get yourself started try sites like this http://www.mortgagehouse.com.au/index.asp and if you get a person that you dont like go to another
    place it doesnt cost you and when you meet a loan advisor that you get on with talk a lot find a common interest if you get on well with them remember that in the future you will be able to phone up and get things moving fast because of the raport that you have. its a people business get to know people. I hope that this helps

    Mortgage Hunter

    YOu might be saying that what i did was right. I refinanced my own home and used the collateral to pay the 20% deposit then borrowd the 80% to get the house all on Interest only. Is this the best way? and if it is I did this throught good luck rather than good management. Both properties are increasing in value and I now want to get +ve properties.

    Yeah Yeah Yeah I have heard it all before and as far as any story goes Bad news sells, it doesnt matter if it is true or not just that it sells. Just look at the news and you will see misery loves company. yet there are people who want to help and create win win situations. Positive is always better than negative. I have just changed my job from PI (Private Investigator) to PI (Property Investor) In my old job i was told that they would kill me, burn my house down and murder my family. dont worry about what one person says steve this is nothing. I think he makes money on selling loose loose stories

    I worked as a labourer to a developer and when the stumps sagged into the ground we just used a car jack and jacked up the floor and put in blocks or fibro. Also with the Public liability. I was an insurance investigator for 24 years and i strongly suggest that with any property that you own do not let the insurance policy lapse or you will be up the creek without a paddle. remember …to the insurance company you are an asset while you pay your premiums and a liability if you lodge a claim and they will try to get out of it at any cost. If you think something is unsafe and you knew it then it is negligence on your part. If you noticed it and there is doubt then you are aware. I would cover the floor with tiles or get the floor safe. The tennant is your asset protect them.You would hate yourself if a child was injured

    Yep. I am new to the market and just yesterday i did as the book suggest and got active. I drove with my partner in crime to the regional centres of NSW and everywhere we went it was the same story Prices are booming and have been for the past two years. we even went to a little town with a population of less than one thousand and found an estate agent that was also the bank and post office and he said the same thing. Are there still bargains to be had? yep! you just have to look real hard and not be disappointed with the first 20 or so agents that you talk to are saying that it is all gone. In Sydney 12 to 18 months ago you couldnt get the agents to return your calls because they were sell sell selling. now we get calls everyday saying are you still interested please come in and talk to us. We bought a property for capital growth. and it will do ok for us but we will sell in about 18 months time. right now we are looking for passive income properties and not the growth and wil buy now before we sell. then we will buy more [8D]

    check out this article in the Sydney morning herald about property prices in all capital cities http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/09/04/1062548939730.html
