I know exactly what you mean Alf. If you’re not carefull you can start off with some money and very quickly have it eroded away by all the “hangers on”.
Hi Dram and HousesOnly []
I agree with everything that you’ve both said. Luckily enough, the SA Government is looking into many of the current problems associated with strata ownership in this State, particularly in regard to strata assistants (I don’t want to use the word “managers” because that would only help to strengthen the false impression that they were actually capable of performing that task) and is looking for public comment. Hopefully, our Government can tighten up our laws in this State because a good dose of epsom salts is long overdue.
I’m sorry that I can’t provide any details of the Government department or person who’s compiling the submissions, as I only found out about the Government’s plans whilst watching the tail end of the ABC News and couldn’t write down the details. I have contacted the ABC, in this regard and will keep anyone who is interested posted.
Would also like to hear from any other people who have had similar experiences with Whittles, and strata assistants generally. []
I’ve experienced nothing but problems with this company. They seem to be really disorganised and continually attempt to put bandaids over their own internal problems. I’ve also heard that other strata owners have had similar experiences. [}]
[]Thanks again Terryw for your response.
The only thing I can see wrong with your last suggestion is that “Wraps are legal everywhere in Australia except South Australia” (according to an excerpt from this website under the Main Page – “Creative Solutions” – “Lease-Options” – “Where to next?” – “Wraps”).
Do you, or does anyone else, have any other ideas on how I can strategically get a $15,000 gross annuity, given the aforementioned criteria.
Kind Regards [] – Johnny.
Thanks Terryw for your quick response to my query.
Unfortunately in my original email I should have explained that I would need to get an immediate return of at least $15,000 p.a. gross income on my investment to presently supplement my wifes income and lasting up until she retires in about 5 years. Also, because I’m a 50 year old “newbie” I’m not sure of the way I should go about this. I have been to a few seminars conducted by the property gurus but have found that they’re only pushing a certain philosophy based on their end product. I need some honest, independent advice.
