  • lonnie replied to the topic Multiple investors on the one deal?? in the forum Creative Investing 19 years, 6 months ago

    I have also been thinking of using partners to buy a property. What is a unit trust structure?. Is it where each partner own x number of units of value in the trust?

    Perhaps you have to make a choice between full time uni and part time work or full time work and part time uni. Stating out in investing has it’s costs. You need to get an asset/ capital base to start with. You need to live within your income and control your spending. The question really is do you want to be an investor enough to pay the…[Read more]

    I would buy in Ipswich simply because it’s where the growth is supposed to happen in the future

  • lonnie replied to the topic Want to sell privately in the forum Help Needed! 19 years, 6 months ago

    Everyone I have known who was going to sell their house privately eventually went to an agent. I have seen houses sit for ever and not be sold. The market is slowing I think you should use the people that people go to when they want to buy a house.

  • lonnie replied to the topic agent not presenting vendor with offer in the forum Help Needed! 19 years, 6 months ago

    Why not approach the vendor yourself. If the vendor does not live in the house go to the local council and for a fee you can get their address and present your offer.

    I am looking foreward to a correction in the market. I hope that the papers cotinue to tell everyone to stay away for real estate. More for me. I have seen three down turns and while everyone else is telling me how stupid I am staying in real estate I collect good properties. Bring on the doom

  • lonnie replied to the topic Are seminars scams? in the forum Opinionated! 19 years, 6 months ago

    Can’t see myself paying $1000’s to attend a seminar,however, I did attend the Mastr Class in Brisbane and found it useful. Also you can not discount the value of networking.

  • lonnie replied to the topic Where do you go to research about a Suburb in the forum Help Needed! 19 years, 6 months ago

    I have found that the logon to the State Government and Local Government web pages can be a good place to start.

  • lonnie replied to the topic First investment- unit in the forum Help Needed! 19 years, 6 months ago

    I think you should look at the market in this area. Ask what price have similar unit sold for. Make an offer based on the information the market gives you. If you do not want to do this then just remember that you can always increase the price you first offered

  • lonnie replied to the topic Vacant Land & Interest Repayments in the forum Help Needed! 19 years, 6 months ago

    My understanding is that until the property/land generates an income you can not claim any costs associated with holding the land eg. rates, interest costs, lawn mowing etc. can not be claimed. Talk with your accountant and until you get a definate answer keep records of your expences

  • lonnie replied to the topic QLD property in the forum Help Needed! 19 years, 6 months ago

    I would suggest that you look in reginal areas and try to do something creative with the property to increase the rent return.

  • lonnie replied to the topic Accountant in QLD in the forum Help Needed! 19 years, 6 months ago

    A good accountant who understands the mind of an property invester is worth their weight in gold. I have not found one in Brisbane

  • lonnie replied to the topic good suburb bad suburb in the forum Help Needed! 19 years, 6 months ago

    The suburbs you listed in Brisbane to stay away from are, in my opinon good suburbs to look at for investment properties. One persons trash is another persons treasure. Look at the returns on the deal .
