Maybe your dad can finance the car, tax write off for the business, and you can just use it as the company car

Otherwise scooters look cool and you can get one that tows a little trailer with the company logo and website. Much cheaper and better publicity than your run of the mill common car.

After briefly scanning the comments made I will add my 2 cents worth. Details can be found http://www.acnaustralia.com.au compare for yourself. You will find line rental same as Telstra but cheaper call rates, free acn2acn and no penalty for paying by credit card makes it a great deal.

Maybe does take a special person to sell to friends and family but…[Read more]

If only he had connected the electicity and turned a few lights on each morning.

My advice is when looking at these types of property always submit offers subject to subdivision being approved. You can then submit your plans to council before you have made the purchase. Just because an areas is zoned 40 etc does not mean the council will automatically grant approval, most cases yes but always be cautious.

I would say allow…[Read more]

Definitely no expert but my suggestion would be: pay only what you need to service the debt save the rest for stamp duty and associated costs with purchasing a property. Whist not the ideal situation, speak to a broker about non conforming lenders, pepper, blue stone, liberty, their rates are by far a lot higher than average but it is an…[Read more]

My Picks would be Success, Victoria Park, Rivervale, but I am new too.

Hey Aussie Kid

Great to hear about your success. I was a little older, 21 when I bought my first place I saved 12k in just under a year. I haven’t lived at home since 17 so I am wondering did you save this while living at home or not?? I have a lot of friends that have bought places by living at home and not having to worry about any bills so t…[Read more]

I only have 1 property and I manage it myself, after the trouhle my mum had with her pm I thought it would be easier to do it myself. A family member is in there now but when I had it tennanted I never had a single call from my tennant, I inspected every 3 months and no problems with rent payments. I couldn’t see a reason for not doing it.

I worked up north to save for my first property thinking of doing it again for the second but for now I am sticking with the little things. As others have mentioned ING saver is a dream 5.25% and no keycard to tempt you. I used to buy easily 6 – 7 mags a month now I borrow them from friends or read stuff online. Coffee and a muffin each day $6.00…[Read more]

I would love to do some type building apprenticeship however with 1 mortgage and a second about to be signed it really isn’t viable. I know in WA with the vast resources industry people entering manual trades are more likely to opt for appernticeships that can take them up north etc where double, even triple perth money can be made.

From the brief posts I have read I gather you are from WA, 18 months ago I was going to build at the Anchorage, I ended up buy established still a good move for the time however if you look at back 18 months ago to earlier stages Anchorage, Thompson Lake it is easy to see that on average block prices are up 20 – 30k from early 2003 prices. I think…[Read more]

hi waynel2

I have noticed the same thing, I am looking Port Kennedy, Secret Harbour. There have been a few but mainly corners still around 900sqm so not too bad. Unlike some near success 440sqm for duplex block, single story restriction. I thought they were joking. You could buy the block next door 600sqm and 20k less but only 1 dwelling. Still…[Read more]
