For hellman, where you can find 8plex for $80k in Australia? also you revalue $90k, is this mean you add $10k to value to support $100 rent for each or you add $90k to original $80k and still get the $100 rent (you are really amazing if you can the latter
For gross, in investing, I think it all relative to risk+knowledge+experience v return. You have high return but also high risk, but with knowledge and experience you can lower your risk.
potential investment (only example only, not viewed as advice):
1. options = for $1 invest you can control $15-30 worth of shares in trust property, return 25%-300% pa
2. land banking = buy lots of land together and subdivide and sell, say need 10 years you can get 4 times original purchase price, if you borrow say 50% LVR, you get 80% return pa on average.
3. buy shares in mining company = if the co. struck the deposit(ore, gold,oil), your $1 be worth $50 in 3 years, return 1,666% pa (you said any class is ok ?)
4. buy property that you can renovate (add value)+ get better tenant (better value and rent)+ subdivide (add value)
+ build (add value), return 40% (add value, do refinance and pull out) + 30% (extra rent from original property and second property) = 70% pa
5. your brain, the more you know, the more can see opportunities and more money you can make. that’s the best investment you can make

Just wondering what is a vic company? If you create a company with discretionary trust underneath, isn’t will have complication with beneficiaries in the deed? will it cause the creation of new trust from law point of view? as you change the ownership of the trust and reflectively change beneficiaries, appointor.
Still learning

Hi all, just met with my solicitor, she said that I do have right to terminate the contract using business partner clause or assign the builder as nominee, BUT the stamp duty still apllies [bawl]
I think I remember someone in forum (is it Terry??) whom mentioned that if I can make an agreement pre date the contract with the builder, I can avoided stamp duty? need confirmation about this. Anyone know VICTORIA law please help !![bawl]
For future references, I asked about option contract in case smth like this happen again, my solicitor doesn’t know much about it. Does anyone know good solicitor/ contacts who know a lot about option contract and business structure in property investing in Melbourne?
love to learn from all of you guys []
cheers

I live in melbourne and the property also in melbourne. If I can assign the contract without asttracting stamp duty, I don’t mind paying the agent commission ($100 initial for $15,000 in 1 week is a very good deal I reckon [biggrin])I am using solicitor instead of conveyancer, so I will see what my solicitor say on monday. Anyone has done this in victoria yet?
Say I want to option next time, how shall I put the ” wording into contract” ?
ie. the buyer acquired a call option to purchase property at $xxx on or before ??? (date). (need expert help in this [bomb] How I convince seller to agree to this condition ?
Things is I got a lesson in my 1st property deal. I ask the agent to put building inspection, and he put the condition “..buidling report shows a major structural defect, the purchaser may end the contract..”. Found out in inspection there is damage worth $5,000 (live wire and damage to inside tiles in bathroom as the tiles cracking). the vendor get away with technicality that the damage is not a structural defect [angry2]
anyway the purchase still proceeded, with my $5,000 lesson (which can used for better things). My 2 cent advice is put extra clause in your contract subject to your solicitor/ business partner approval, to protect yourself [baaa]
