The investor club educates people and helps them into property. It makes a profit too.
If you are a new investor and need the support of others then I think it is great.
If you are experienced and begrudge them making some money then I think you should go it alone.
There is no good or bad. Is just that we all have different needs.

SC,
The recent course I did made no mention of living off equity. He discussed keeping equity and living off portfolio income.
I would recommend the course too.

Do a search on student rooms or accomodation.

That is a very general question.

Steve is not selling a property seminar. He is not the usual spruiker [biggrin]
Steve runs his own Managed Fund. It has been doing well and there are two points in his favour.
1. He is one of the largest investors in his fund.
2. He doesn’t get paid management fees unless his fund outperforms the All Ords Index.
Despite being a fund manager he recommends property as the main road to wealth because of the ability to gear it much higher. He doesn’t sell any more info than that.
Steves seminar is $175 inc snacks and Lunch. It just covers his costs and he keeps the numbers low. There were 35 at the one I attended. This fee also includes an additional 90 minute one on one consult with him at a later date.

Talk to Mick at Hunter House Hunters – he will help a lot over the phone and is obligation free.

Might I add that the pay course was a lot more comprehensive – he speaks for four times as long!

There is no best. There is only best for you – is like asking what the best car is without me knowing you or your needs.
I suggest you get onto a Mortgage Broker.

I have found that lots of investors use Buyers Agents. In fact the more properties one buys the less confident the yare to have another professional help them out.
Some people are very busy in their job and couldn’t look at enough places on their own.

That is a very general question. Some people consider a good BA to be worth their weight in gold. Others feel the opposite.
What would you want them to do for you that you can’t do for yourself? They have expertise, negotiation skills, contacts and a lot of knowledge of their area.
Their fees are often around $5000, but claim to save you more just in negotiation.
Perhaps if you are new to the game their advice may well be worth a lot?
Is up to you.

I doubt you will find a mentor outside of family and friends. Successful people, whilst they enjoy teaching in some cases, are often too busy to spend time giving advice to people they don’t know – especially when one considers the responsibility they take for your actions. It may not be a legal responsibility but I know I would take personal responsibility.
As a Broker I cannot give investment advice but am usually happy to chat about what I have found works and what others I know do – purely hypothetically of course!
All the best to you.

I agree with White Knight.
If you get new doors go for the extra wide PVC strip, it wears much better.

Absolutely true – we have all experienced that.
I think people put their fears onto you.
The next thing is that when you do do well they will put it down to luck!
As well as those friends make some new ones that you can discuss property with – this is a good place to meet them!

I am with Steve, “pay it down” through a offset account. This allows you a lot more flexibility.
I think you are on the right track.

I would be cinsidering what you want to achieve and your timeframe.
If you know where you want to bethen the path might be clearer.
If you don’t know where you want to be then you can do anything and get there [biggrin]

6 months is typical for a deposit of under 20%. it can vary though.
Your broker or lender can advise if you give them specifics!

Where do the tenants pay their rent? Follow that link.
Dobn’t let a Real Estate Agent get a sniff that you are after buying it tho – they will ask for a listing before you get to speak to the owner!
Think of another reason?
