Had to write this as I am a regular visitor to this blog. What a disaster jdl strategies are. If you want to snap up a cheap (bargain) investment property you can buy one from a disgruntled client of the company (client who has brought an investment from jdl).  I am told that many properties are now on the market cause the poor investors are…[Read more]

Agree Terry and Jamie, What a read….I would run and run and run from JDL. They seem to get a lot of bad press. Has anyone had sucess with them at all? Just read that they also over value property, overvalue expected rental on property etc Bet they on the radar now.

The general manager for Members Alliance was the State Manager for West Point in WA. If you don't know about West Point it was a property developer that went into receivership (some financial planners were charged as well) and the directors were charged/ jailed for various deeds. That should say it all.

For anyone who is…[Read more]

Sorry Henry bad use of words. I would suggest doing a lot of homework (a lot). I use a company that helps with my financial situation and then makes recommendations. Property is something I choose to use in order to set up my retirement. I agree with Kent (above) but I needed help with my financials. I still get a load of crap from jdl even though…[Read more]

Doh Henry, just ask for your money back – you have rights. I use another company after months and months of research (no names no advertising for them) so have experience but am no expert. Best of luck.

Hello Henry, this is interesting post – I would stay well away from JDL Strategies and could probably find you ten more people who would say the same. They are a viral marketing company plain and simple selling overpriced property. It’s funny I should see this post today because I just read a post (in another forum) stating how destructive JDL was…[Read more]

Free willy can you tell me more about westpoint. I would like to know more. I ? our advisor and he said that the general manager was a State manager of westpoint and not involved. Read an article that over 300 people lost their jobs over the actions of a few which I cant find on google for the life of me. Would like to find out more on this if you…[Read more]

Hi Jason, yes I have been using membersalliance mainly for debt reduction on current home and yes trying to now get into another property investment. They did not however just show us property they first showed us how to set up our fianances and then offered option of property. They sorted my insurance to which has been a big savings. So I kind of…[Read more]

Can anyone provide me with in on a company called JDL Strategy in WA. Anyone used them with success? I met with a young guy called Tim recently who said he was the director of the company only to find out he is just a salesman. Guess thats a bad start. Just doing my homework I guess.

Myself and my wife sat through a very lengthy, in-depth and eye opening meeting with them llast week. After having…[Read more]

Thanks SAM for your info about out of State investing. I will take that on board. We have decided to seek more infomation from our accountant at this stage and do some more research on the matter. My meeting was not that productive at all so back to the drawing board. Thanks

IS it safe to purchase investment property out of State?? What are the pitfalls/negitive and what are the positives. We are considering buying in QLD or NSW but live in WA. QLD/NSW seems to have greater cap growth. Also is it worth using a company (prop investment type) to help with this type of thing if you are buying out of State or can you do…[Read more]

Are seminars really worth going to? Regarding property investing?? We are considering it but it seens that a lot of people hosting these seminars like the sound of their own voice and not helping us out? Let me know if you think its worth my time to go. Thanks

IS it really safe to invest outside of Aussie? Info please

Dont you need about 10 yrs to really make property investing work?

You are lucking you are thinking like this at your age. Soak up this advice and you will do very well. Wish I had started early but waited till I was in my 40's. Investing is the way to go. Numbers have no feelings, you do.

Any info on NAB? Please…..interesting post

I must say that there seems to be a lot of people joining up now who have similar type posts. Almost sounds like its all the same person. <moderator: delete personal comment>I dont care whether you got paid super or not. THis is something that is a personal issue with a campony and should not be on this forum.I just want good advice. Thats it…[Read more]

Wow scary that its all happening to YOUR parents. HAve you both tried or are you investing yourselves? Thanks for the 'light reading' Dale. Just read the article and it doesn't really paint that bad a picture. Sorry am I reading it wrong? I meet with a company on Monday night – gentleman coming to see me after work. Will let you know how it g…[Read more]

Thanks Dale for the info. I am in Perth so will do my own research and go from there. I am finding that it takes a lot of time and effort to look into property across Australia. We have been in 'the game' for a few years but now I need some professional advice etc. I was invloved with (no names) with a company who provided advice etc but they…[Read more]
