Yes, freakster, and as I don’t have an original thought in my head, I’ll ape anyone who’s apeish enough )

So how does one get on Allen’s register? If the dude can make me a millionaire through property, given my current situation, and it’s not through any dodgy means, I’ll follow him wherever he leads. hehe.

Oops, another thing to mention here is defamation. Obviously, the Forum would not want to be involved in ugly defamation proceedings. It’s a really public forum here, and people’s reputations can be on the line. It’s not a good path to go down. It’s one matter to say someone is a [clown] It’s another matter to allege that the [clown] is a…[Read more]

bennido,

The problem with naming names… well, I can tell you Mr Blah Man, the local RE agent, lawyer, accountant, QS etc, is a psycho… but who says I am not a psycho myself?

There is no credibility in making allegations about someone anonymously. Perceptions can be really different, and I could make a heap of nasty allegations about someone-…[Read more]

elinitha,

It’s possible that the vendor asked the RE not to pass on any offers below a certain amount. I know when I was selling a place, a vendor made an offer about a similar amount below asking price to yours, and the RE told me about it, but said he’d refused the offer on my behalf. Remember, the Agent is acting on behalf of the buyer, and…[Read more]

I think you’ll find many of us are just simple folk, trying to learn as much as we can too. I’ve been on the Forum for 9 months, but I make sure I read as many posts as I can- even if they don’t seem relevant to me today- they may tomorrow.

Best of luck with it all, and I don’t know the figures, but you can bet a lot of us started off…[Read more]

“I think the NZ market will still go strong for at least the next 6-12 months, but who am I?”

Del, I think people really enjoy hearing your opinion about this stuff. You’ve obviously been successful in your strategies. Don’t downplay your contribution or opinions- you’re a star

Marisa,

You probably would have thought of this, but fly screens on windows are essentials, I think.

Happy birthday Simon- and how will you be celebrating your birthday?

PS Hey Jay- why doncha stick around more and say stuff? [goatee]

So expat,

In case I am not one of the Chosen Ones to become a millionaire, how does one become a millionaire in 101 days? I haven’t read the 1-minute millionaire- I guess I kind of thought it took a longer time than 1 minute or 101 days- yes, I know- I’m slow. [blink]

And don’t worry, expat, your property boom will come. Personally, I still…[Read more]

hehe, yeah, Derek I guess I would have to pay something like $4990 to be in with a chance anyway.

Sorry Freak [happy3]

kay henry

Yes?

kay henry

It’s an interesting challenge Allen makes- $1 million net worth in 101 days? 3 months? how could he possibly do that?

Anyone got any ideas on how one could become a millionaire in 3 months? How much money would you have to have to begin with? Some? None?

I wouldn’t mind being one of the ten

So do ya think it will actually be Robbins at that preview? Or a big screen with a video of Robbins on it, and one of his sales people out the front? I would seriously think of going if I thought it would be him (I love visiting cults!) but if it isn’t him, I can stay at home and watch the infomercial.

Meriton has built a number of new unit blocks in south yarra- oh dear.

Bennido, a 70’s or 80’s block can have their own difficulties. Not quite art deco, and not quite euro appliances. The 70’s-80’s apartment blocks can suffer post-boom- there’s quite a goo9d article in a fairly recent API about these, and there’s been some articles you can look…[Read more]

bennido,

Most new or newish apartments will be negatively geared, but you would have known that when you bought it, right? As long as the area you’ve bought in is not over-supplied, you should be ok. Depends on how much you bought it for, I guess. I think hugely exxy apartments that are indistinguishable from the many others in the building re…[Read more]

Phil,

You can put your email address as a signature at the bottom of your posts, as many do here. There are abunch of people providing services on here. Just make sure you advertise your service at the bottom of your posts- not as content within the posts, and you’ll be right.

Try this link, taz. I think the focus of the thread was on the person in financial difficulty.

https://www.propertyinvesting.com/forum/topic/11718.html

Here’s a thought: offer fair market value, and don’t take advantage of the vendor’s situation

kay henry

uncivilised, I think it’s great that you can get the FHOG. dunno what the govt is thinking of giving it to investors who already have properties, but there you have it. Take it happily, uncivilised, before they fix the loophole, I say!

NEWGEN,

My PM’s send out an annual profit/loss statement with all details of expensiture, at the end of the financial year. I have to pay for another one if I lose that one, but the first one you get should be free, I’d have thought.
