    Also read books, I find you get a wealth of information out of Steves books and also Margaret lomas books.

    Hi there ausi ski bum

    It depends has the stair case got a handrail running along it, I know tenants usually prefer this.  It also depends on the personnel you are investing towards.

    You have to know exactly what the people in that area are looking for and invest in what they want, classic case sanario: used as an example 

    only… people in a particular suburb are looking for a unit so, why would I buy a mansion house? In the same way find out what the tenants would prefer. 

    Buy what people want.

    As an owner of Australian Property Directions I welcome the queries and am excited by people wanting to find out more about exactly who we are and how we operate.   I do think it's unfortunate that our competitors have been clearly attempting to gain a strategic advantage and level the playing field with negative and self serving comments.

    Given this I would encourage you to click on the link below to see just a snapshot of what some of our clients think of the services and support we provide.

    Alternatively give us a call at our head office on 07 3871 3744 and we can organise for you to have a chat with one of our team and then you as a consumer can make a fully informed decision on whether you wish to pursue property investment with us.

    would not trust this company at all. Reading this post from an owner is disgraceful. I smell a rat.

    Hi Tuo Dong

    PC properties are everywhere, in all states, though sometimes they work out to be positive after tax  breaks.

    The aim of the game is to buy property with both PC flow and good capital growth from day 1

    example:

    Buy property for under market value

    Buy property, fix it up make it look nice or add something, then rent it for more

    Buy property in high yield areas

     Throw down a large deposit 

    there are heaps of ways to find positive cash flow property's you just have to think creatively and bingo

    There's a Social Media website called BuzZing I believe, it's worth a look.

    Hi Blessed and Happy

    Ive read his books and they are good at giving you ideas and teaching you about money if you are a beginer in learning, eg: Exiting The Rat Race, from there its up to your own account to do the maths and research to find the investment thats best for you. 

    My friend bought his whole pack about $3500, in there he got alot of books, i think a great deal of info about the share market, CD's, and the board game.

    the board is interesting the first time you play it, after that you know the pros and cons and you dont want to play it anymore, to win in the game, you simply borrow about 50k by shares at a low price of 5$, wait for the card to come around that says your shares have gone up to 40k, sell, then walla.. your riches investor in the board game.

    However.. Good on him because so many people who dont know any better get caught up the race, like myself years ago and his books opened my eyes and i can say He woke me up! But i wouldnt buy anything other than the rich dad books.

    Because she works with property and understands the trends, sounds all she needs is to employ a great broker, I would go through Jamie or Shahin and get another valuation sounds quite pleasant when working with a good team.

    good luck Hannah wish you all the best

    Hi Nigel

    Do you think employing a buyers agent is great idea? as they say they are up to date with market research, also they do not get any commission on there recommendation, they only get paid by you so, a not bias opinion.

    Are they as reliable as generally say? are they really worth a pretty penny?

    You can invest in cars… For example Shelby Cobra, GT40, A9X or 2dr RX3 13b Turbo.. These cars will only up in value just to name few.

    And who do you talk too, who knows enough about what there talking about.

    The best I got was borrowing 100k from Macquarie bank and only paying interest pm with a stop loss so basically it becomes a win win situation though the risk is you may make no money but your leveraging 100k and only paying interest lol

    This was from a different advisor.. So I sorta loss interest

    So if Re is a side dish where’s the meat in the share market?
