Say Jeff – i noticed you said: There's no time like the present.Don't wait to buy property, Buy property and wait.I'm guessing many people in Sydney followed this same advice during the past 3 years or so and soon found that they owed a lot more on their property than what it was worth…In Steve's book "0 to 260+ Properties in 7 Years" he advises…[Read more]

I have read Steve's first book '0 to 130 Properties' and part of his second book "0 to 260 Properties' …I hadnt actually reached the point yet where his newer approaches to property investing are discussed. Eg. his 11 second rule obviously doesnt apply to properties nowdays. in fact any form of 'outof the box' positive cashflow deals are near…[Read more]

It's up to you whether to believe the MSM or fact-based analysis.I prefer to work on facts, and am therefore fascinated by the facts you've supplied here.My question though is how can the prices in Australia be explained if there is indeed an oversupply of properties about and not an undersupply as the media is reporting?

The owners should challenge the 'valuation' by the state government in court …The fact that a neighbouring block of land sold for a third of the price during that same period would mean a certain win of their case.It's about time the people took on the greedy government. It's an attack on property owners' rights… it amounts to legalised…

Foundation – thank you for the interesting observations and facts.I based my opinions of a land/housing shortage on 1. what i've heard on the radio comparing the rate of influx of people compared to rate of building of new dwellings in South East Queensland. The ratio is not at all good. 2. i've heard similar arguments presented on television, and…[Read more]

I bought the book "0 to 130 properties in 3.5 years" and can honestly say that i like Steve's approach.It seems honest and informative – and without the hype which i've seen in other guru's books.I'm new to Brisbane (and Australia) – have only been here since Feb (am all the way from South Africa) and in that short time i've gained the impression…[Read more]
