Arrr come on guys

You can’t go passed Steve’s two books.

I have just finished $1m in Property in One Year this weekend and I would have to say that it is probably one of the best on the market at the moment.
It’s full of inspirational stuff. More than enough to get any procrastinator up and running for months.

Hi Steve

There are only 3 REs in Tokoroa and they all operate property management.

In the space of 12 months the 3 companies have changed their PMs.

Harvey’s have had 3 with Kathy the latest having moved over from C21. I don’t know why.

The office lady at C21 is studying for her RE Licence.

I mainly have only dealt with Kathy. She managed one…[Read more]

Hi CD

Jackie and I have been going for an evening walk and I can’t help but notice that a lot of houses have new paint on. The town is certainly looking good.

Hi Westan

I think the same applies to the other two agents in the…[Read more]

Hi Ozi

I get the KPI Mag.
It originally was called the NZ Property Investor, edited by Andrew King who has written two books on property investing.
ESC took over the mag back in 2002, renamed it and put lots of colour in it and used it to push their things.

Andrew stayed on as editor for a while before a new editor was appointed. The mag was…[Read more]

Hi Jeff

You said
Another sleepout is the one you have when you’ve had a few too many and lose your keys to the front door.

Isn’t that being sent to the dog box?[baaa]

Hi Beginner

Not that I know of.

Hi Guys

NZ version of a sleepout can be at least two things.

1. It can be a room built onto or inside a garage. It will be lined, lino or carpet on the floor. Big enough for a bed and table. Some will have a toilet and or shower and maybe even a small kitchen bench. Usually about 4mx5m.

2. It can be an entirely separate room about the same…[Read more]

Hi SIS

You said
but what is scaring people from the property market, when there are plenty of potential gains to be made and cashed in…?

Perhaps the property market has soaked up all those who wanted to invest in it and therefore there are no people left to buy investment properties.

Hi Guys

I don’t care what is being said, the price I am paying to put petrol in my car keeps going up.
This means I have less to spend on may be doing renovations to my IPs.

It also means that my clients(tenants) have less money to spend. I am going to have to closely monitor rent payments.

And with higher petrol prices the cost of buying…[Read more]
