edited own post because i really couldn't be bothered dealing with the tanty's and explaining how to read what was actually said rather than what people want to see…

I seem to remember a Kevin Wood from the old Investors Club of the late 90's early 2000's that ran into some…..trouble…Coincidence perhaps?

RPData and PDSLive both will be losing the bulk of owners contact details around mid June this year thanks to a cash grab by state government – they're going to provide that information on a cost basis of about $3-5 per enquiry, regardless of if you have a subscription to either of these services or not. State Govt say its to stop 'some real…[Read more]

I think the things mentioned above may be relevant, such as increased traffic flow, perspective in relation to the new building etc (ie: facing a front entrance vs a rear loading dock), but some of the impact will purely be subjective, such as perception and sentiment. That stuff you can't control. People will think what they want. I'd talk to…[Read more]

Benderfile – what area are you in? One thing you could also look at is on the qld government infrastructure website or office of urban management and see what is being planned for your area/region, what infrastructure projects are being planned or being considered, anything like roads, hospitals, nearby airports, mines, anything that will impact…[Read more]

usually when woolies come to town it means they know something about the upcomgin growth in the area. they dont' spend money without the backing of a lot of research. what are are you in?

hi hengjin.li .. I'd really appreciae a copy of the book if you're willing to send one to me.If that's ok, please email it to : mwil2623@bigpond.net.au ..And if I may comment on the statements by Pauly P, on one hand I agree education costs if you can get benefit out of it are probably ok to deal with, however when the people selling the education…[Read more]

just make sure you can verify what the guy told you.. independently..thats a lesson I learnt.. they can tell you anything they want, but you need independent proof of what they're saying.. I may be a bit jaded but i too had lots of people who worked there tell me all sorts of things, ultimately none of which were true, or at very best they were…[Read more]

Thanks Michael, I was quite disappointed, however in hindsight I am happy NOT to be involved with either groups. Being master of my own destiny far better suits my world view than being tied to .. well…. my point I feel is already made.As they say, every dog his its day…

Something of interest, I reposted In the Game's comments over at 21st century academy who 'promote' mark and  massland, and i've been banned from the forum and told i've defamed etc etc.. one would begin to question such a strong reaction from seminar providers and why they'd stifle an opinion being offered and a suggestion people do due…[Read more]

what are your thoughts on Ayr and the surrounding areas given the infrastructure/mining going on in areas between there and Townsville?

benny just a thought, can you PM me the details of your site as I personally know a few of the smaller developers around town who may be interested. If I know the size/location etc I may be able to assist somehow.. entirely up to you of course but if you're interested, you can email me at mwil2623@bigpond.net.au.CheersMatt

Buyers agents may be a good idea for your project given its not the type of thing your AVJennings or Mirvac etc would do.. just make sure you do your research first. Go to the town plan, or ring the town planning section of council would be easier, and ask them outright, what can you do on your block? that way you know what council want, so your…[Read more]

I'd also say the whole burdekin shire south of townsville, for the same reasons, mining going in, new transport infrastructure, tight land etc.. i know ayr has a huge push on resi development approvals and not a scrap of industrial land left, and in townsville people can't afford industrial land as most owners are beyond unrealistic, so they're…[Read more]

IT will depend on the size of the site, the specific zoning and whether you have a DA allowing you develop the site etc. If its a small residential site you're wasting your time on the larger groups as they won't touch anything under 60 home sites, you're more targeting the smaller builders/mum and dad developers. I'd investigate via the town plan…[Read more]

Hi SNNot sure what else I can tell you but sure, PM me if you like.

Thanks Michaelthere are many seminar spruikers out there that purport to do many things. They're experts at selling dreams but their private persona is very different to the public one most people see. I can think of two that spring to mind in that regard. I'd reiterate the necessity of doing some solid due dilligence including asking for student…[Read more]

I should caveat my comments above and say clearly I make no accusations of impropriety or otherwise against mark massland or anyone else. I merely suggest you do your due dilligence and research as you should with any venture you're considering entering, and make your own judgements.good luck with your decision.

the seminar is about using options in property developing. It depends on the market sector you're looking for but Mark's model is to basically have 'student's out there trying to find him land and to do the negotiating, then if you're ina  JV with his company you get 15% of whatever he manages to sell the option for to a developer, either with a…[Read more]
