    Hi again

    We settled the property last Fri week.
    There was a little bit of storm damage before we signed contracts, so we dropped the price 2k after a bit of negotiation.

    Thanks again Ironlady

    Hi all

    We exchanged contracts yesterday by email.
    After months of stuffing around with solicitors and the rea they signed unconditional contract EXCEPT for Special condition 43 Guarantor with a $41k deposit (paid on 16-4-15). We reduced our price from $410k to $408k with 6wks settlement. We will not see the details till Mon, but We were told that the buyer did not use the SMSF?

    Thanks again for all the input

    Hi Terryw

    Hi JacM and Terrw

    Sorry if it sounds like i am not hearing yous guys. I wouldn,t see things that yous can see and I am pretty sure I will be wrong as far as going under contract subject to finance. Sounds like they dont want to take that road anyway.
    I do appreciate your input on this forum / post.

    I contacted the Rea, thanked him for his input and asked could he keep us informed more often. He replied by saying. The problem with keeping you more informed is that the buyer is not being informed either. The trust details for the superfund are vetted by the bank for 1st timers, thats the real issue.

    Thanks Ironlady

    Hi JacM

    I am only guessing but they may not want to sign not knowing if they will get the money.
    If they do get the loan approval before signing contract we can ask for not subject to finance.
    Would rather it fall over now than down the track.
    It sounds like I am contradicting my self because I was pushing them for a deposit, but I was assuming they had the money.

    Thanks Ironlady

    Hi Terryw

    Now that we can see they are doing something we will wait.
    Don’t see us getting a better deal in this market at the moment and we are happy with the sale price.
    Besides we made a deal (only verbal to agent) to let him have first chance to purchase.
    The rental contract runs out on the 31 Jul 2015 so if he doesn’t buy he will have to keep renting or move his business some were else and we will take possession of the property and run our business.
    The best option for us is a sale, but if we don’t sell the property will not be vacant.

    Thanks Ironlady

    Hi again

    We received an email today from our solicitor Saying:

    Dear Ironlady (me and wife)

    Re: YOUR SALE TO XY BLABLA SUPERANUATION PTY LTD
    PROPERTY: 000 AAA ST, SOMEWHERE

    We refer to the above matter and wish to confirm that we have today received a phone call from the purchasers solicitor advising that his client is still awaiting finance approval. As his client is buying under their Self-Managed Super Fund the x Bank is “putting them through the hoops”, He confirmed that his client still wants to proceed with the purchase but unfortunately they require the written approval of finance prior to being in a position to exchange contracts. They will contact us as soon as their finance has bee approved.

    They have not asked for an extension on thu yet. Would it be an impossible question to ask how long the bank could take. It would have helped if they coughed up more info, like how long their app for the money has been at the bank.
    Should I ask for more info from solicitor or should the agent be chasing it up.

    Thanks Ironlady

    Hi JacM

    According to the agent they were chasing up some money in the negotiation phase.They were taking to long to respond to the price we set (advice from rea). Can only assume they are using a bank for some of the money.

    At the end of the day we are trying to work out if the buyer is genuine and taking to much time, just cant scrape up the money or others.
    We can wait longer if needed and we know 100% they will buy the property, but they havnt realy conviced us that they will buy our property.
    Hopefully will get a result either way on thu.

    Thanks again Ironlady

    Hi JacM

    He said in his letter the bank is the hold up with the super fund being the LENDER. He may have made a typo?
    He has also said in the past that they were setting up a SMSF family trust. Not to sure about that one, thought it was a property trust but I dont know a lot about SMSF. The agent could just be relaying what the buyer is telling him.There are a few things that havnt sounded right from the rea. I believe they are playing a game. Will find out on Thursday.

    Thanks Ironlady

    Hi JacM

    No name of purchsing entity as far as we are awear of.
    Rang our solicitor on Fri 10-4-15 and they rang the buyer solicitor and they said waiting on accountant.
    We emailed the selling agent this morning and said he has until thu 16-4-15 to sign and put a deposit.
    After ignoring us for 3 wks (we contacted him 3wks ago and were still waiting a reply) the sell agent emailed us and said, I have spoken to the buyer this morning and he said the bank is the hold up with the superfund being the lender. Agent told him we need a deposit. Buyer replied my accountant told me not to.

    AS I said in the original post it will be 8wks on Wed coming and no deposit.
    We are finding it hard to get info from the rea and our solicitor doesnt seem to be getting much info out of the buyer solicitor
    I will post after Thursday. Dont see much happening.

    Thanks Ironlady

    Tanks Terryw

    Yeh we rang our solicitor and agent 2wks or so ago. Agent said he would contact them and get back to us. Heard nothing?
    They will definately be receiving a dead line.

    Thanks again Ironlady

    Thanks Solomon 10

    Spoke with agent and we can get access to secure property as soon as we agree on a price and put deposit. Can clean yard and that sort of stuff, but wont do to much incase he changes his mind
    Will have to check property just before exchange of contracts
    With permition this would be a good time to secure the property with proper grills etc
    Deal is all but done, just waiting for comfirmation, but you problably allready know what can happen
    Hopefully I can keep everyone here posted if it happens, good or bad

    Thanks again Ironlady

    Hi

    Thanks guys

    No1 I think we done something similar with our unit ( 100% + fees ) The rate on the unit is at 7.17 % now Not real sure on commercial loan off the top of my head but is at least 1% more
    Forgot to mention our 2 properties are in our name
    Will talk with Richard mid week
    We want to make our next property separate ( Co trust ) then will be selling of commercial in a few years ( waiting on big infrastructure to happen ) Have not decided on what to do with the unit but will also be affected by infrastructure ( good news )

    Regards Ironlady

    Hi Paul

    We would not tell the bank before we rented or sold
    Will give this some serious thoughts and contact you if we decide to go that way

    Thanks again
