Thanks. As a resident Darwinite I believe this was good news. Long term project Programme/Cash per fiscal year……but good for Darwin inner city – will enhance the area.
Things have tightened in last month or so more than I anticipated. The gas employees and change in Defence personnel have really limited rentals. Rentals are scare cant…[Read more]

Hi all & to Steve

Colours, Fancy titles etc – its the content I am most interested in. Bit like a CD really.
Hate to trivialise…. but 0 -130 etc was loaned to me by a friend that knew how I loved RE.

Thankyou for your tip reference “property Matters” pertaining to divorce. Credit card liability. Of my 55 page “book” delivered by the Magistrate [baaa] I have just checked there is not specific mention of a credit card that I was a 2nd cardholder to.

There are general/standard indemnity provisions contained in the orders, but perhaps I…[Read more]

Hi
Interesting thoughts and experiences listed here.
Bectel ( Gas Plant ) and Defence movements have driven the rental market to a very low vacancy rate.
Most agents i have recently spoke with report “no vacant” properties to a rate of 2%. Darwin City and casuarina areas a higher vacancy rate.

Still inner city unit developments that i have…[Read more]

The CBD apartment cycle is no different to that experienced in the major cities. In fact theres a hot cake iissue of the “escape of stamp duty” avoidance in “buy off the plan”.

Agree population does not support such an investment. But then what else will fill the vacant lots ??? Maybe Jenmans thoughts on following the lots??? Me thinks so !!

There are a few good Managers.
Mitch Elton Raine and Horne Palmerston is one.
I say this from a Tenant prospective as well as those who have her as a landlord. Very good communicator and fair all around.

In my humble life thus far I have been a tenant, a landlord and have lived in my own homes as well.
The only thing that seperates the three is emotion….
It costs more to live in your own home if you have a huge mortgage choking you.. which makes the daffodils you plant with pride suddenly wilt.!!

I enjoy renting just now… like others…[Read more]
