I have put my plans on hold – I am still young (22yo) and my partner and I have decided to travel some more before we start our careers.Personally, I felt that the "mentorship" wasn't really that at all. I was suspicious of it as soon as the meeting started – it came across as a sales pitch rather than something of a tutoring / mentoring program.…[Read more]

No problem.We decided not to go ahead about 2 minutes after they left after the meeting. It was late-ish last year that we had the meeting.I'm surprised they haven't been in contact with you much – that is worrying. Have you sunk much in to it yet?Definitely understand the earning of trust but my financial situation is quite delicate and this…[Read more]

HelloI decided to not continue with the program as I did not like the proposition that was brought to us. Seemed more like a sales pitch then a mentorship program.Also, when I told Steve I was not interested he was quite rude and chastised me. He more or less said I would never be able to realise any of my dreams without his help – was very…[Read more]

Thank you Michael

Does the FHOG-PLUS only apply to RESIDENTS in NSW or does it apply to properties being BOUGHT in NSW?E.G.I'm a first home buyer living in QLD and I want to buy in NSW (all hypothetical), does that mean I can get away with no stamp duty (whilst this scheme is active)?

That's a good point – the asking whether it covers those outside their portfolio.I would hazzard a guess at "no" but I hope that's not the case.

Hi wisepearl,

What do you think this means for people in this program?

Was wondering if there was any more feedback about this?Would love to hear from Fiona H some more to get some better insight.Thanks!

I would recommend not clicking on any of those links above.Also, you could probably keep this in the other thread you made.Best of luck on your journey.

Thanks mate. Have you gone any further or is it on afterburners until he fills all the spots?Are you at all apprehensive or skeptical? I understand how they make their money out of it all (nothing in life is free, after all). But I'm still a bit worried I suppose.I guess we'll see how the talk with him in person goes first.

Just got off the phone from speaking with Stephen.He seemed genuine.Need to speak with my partner then organise an in-person meeting with Stephen.

Awesome – glad to hear.

What is your understanding of how the process works?

I just had a call from Stephen's people. He is calling me next week to have a chat <moderator: delete language> I don't know if I'm a suitable candidate but I guess we'll have to find out >.<

Cheers Jamie – I'll have to troll through those, thanks mate

Hey Susie, Interesting! thanks for the info!@angel,thanks – very helpful (as always!) I haven't seen those free reports but they are interesting. Will be good to actually apply the stats to what I can see when I go out there to have a look around!

No Inala investors? haha!

Hey Ravi,I find myself in a situation similar to you. A lot of people will find it hard to understand where you want to go at your age. I'm sure you've read Kiyosaki's books… it isn't something we are taught at a young age!What your parents said about going to Uni isn't a bad idea though — like JacM said, that piece of paper is what will allow…[Read more]

Firstly, congrats John for owning those properties outright, no easy feat for sure!Secondly, consider the people that have done what Steve has done… 130 in 3.5 years.Now, I'm going to take a punt – without any other information, just based on what we know right now – that Steve is financially better off than yourself.That is only one example…[Read more]

Hey FergusI have just started my journey towards being a property investor and am very much starting to research intensely into areas / places of interestFrom what I have gathered, through my own research, and the words of some more seasoned investors, these sort of deals don't just 'crop up'…It is all about being creative with your investment…[Read more]

That was a good read Kent.
