I love the shire, spend every spare minute of my time down at eloura and greenhills. And I agree with you that a majority of the crowd would have been peaceful. I also have to say that this wasn’t unexpected. Im sure alot of people down there have been putting up with a lot of crap for a very long time! And this was just the straw that broke the…[Read more]

Well that depends on if your going to throw it up on the forum for everyone to look at?

Hello Andy,
Sounds to me like you have a skill!!!!
Now you need to manage that skill for succesfully making money and reduce the time and effort required on your part to achieve it.
Why not aim to complete multiple reno’s and contract some of the work out?
Aim to do 4 properties a year using someone else’s time. With smaller returns.

If the property your looking at costs 500k, why not just put up the 2 g’s for a pty ltd trust? Or is this more for educational sake?

Cool, you freaked me out for a sec. I purchased a discretionary trust, And named it my family trusts. So everything on the paperwork says family trust. Although this is just its name.

Kinda funny now when I think about it.

Hello Cata
Whats the difference between a family Trust and a discretionary one?.

Carl as a suggestion, consider the name of your trust and how it will affect vendor. Remembering you could end up being asked for more when the vendors greed gland starts secreting.

My 2 Cents,
I guess it depends on what your trust is called ie When a signed contract reads ” THE SMITHS FAMILY TRUST” this probably wont raise the vendors eyebrow’s However if it reads “ABC INVESTMENTS PTY LTD AS TRUSTEE FOR THE RICH MANS TRUST” A vendor would be inclined to not sign and hold out for more. With the mind set that there being…[Read more]

Yeah gross, Im a little sceptical of this one too. More importantly i dislike the veil of secrecy surrounding it.

Firstly Agents can not buy property from there own agency.
So they must engage other REA’s to purchase.

Ive heard this line also…” Its a great house I should buy it myself” My answer, “well why don’t you!!!!”

Oustanding, reckon you can do it again?

Cheers to that!!! Or jump in a car do a lap of AUSSIE!!!

Thanks Foundation, i remember that topic and a lot of interesting info came out of it.Although towards the end it moved away from the cycle theory.

Ive heard different opinions on this also. IMO I think you should evaluate your goals and what it is your trying to acheive. And borrow accordingly.
Me I would repay P&I.

Winchester, How are you going with filling those positions?

IS there anything stopping you from walking up to the front door and knocking?
“Hi Im interested in buying your property”
Just a thought….

Perhaps owner is trying to value add and doesn’t want propspective buyers to see his mess?
