Hi Western

Thanks but I have already worked that out. It does make it a little tighter for straight our investing. You need to look at apartment blocks or foreclosers.

Clearly John Symond is after some cheap publicity. He must be paying attention to BS Shapnels press releases.

In the main cities in New Zealand there are still good investments to be found. The returns are still better than Australia and over a period of time the capital growth will be good. Frankly I do not care what the market is doing at present. If you buy for the medium to long term you will do well. I have invested a been in this business before the…[Read more]

Geelong is a good area that has also experienced capital growth. Personally I would stay away from point cook. Many of the marketing companies have been flogging these houses to investors. There may be an issue with flooding the market with investment properties

Just a couple more points.

Your right KP you do not know anything about the New Zealand market. you tell where in an inner city area in a major city in Australia you can recieve returns of 7.5%-8.3% on residential real estate. The fact that you do not see the point does not make it a bad place to invest. The USA has a population of nearly 300…[Read more]

Are you getting thoses returns in a major city. I doubt it. These properties are in good suburbs that will go up in price. In terms of Westerns comments these are all inner city locations. My investors by property for long term holding. Not for a quick profit. I do not see ther value in Australia in buying in one horse towns

Higher interest rates do not provide an incentive to save. If people already have a home loan then it restricts the amountr of available money they have to spend or invest

It is a little like Australia in the late 80s. Governments do not realise that you can damage an economy by continueing to lift rates. Although most people fix there rates many according to a broker I know has stated that many will shortly be coming off lower fixed rates. I hope that the reserve bank does not keep on tightening rates. They should…[Read more]

We all have different views on investing. You are no doubt doing your best. I may not agree with everything you say however it was wrong of me to attach you the way I did. It does not change my overall position. However it is not my nature to do that. The message that we should be pushing especially to newbys is that it is essentional that they do…[Read more]

Infact I am always happy to talk to people on this forum and people who have invested in the United States. I feel that since I tell people to research then I need to research ther market for myself. I am prepared to share that information.

You are right Western

It is not my style and for that I am sorry. But you also appear to take a black and white view on New Zealand. I am agreeing that prices have risen. However that does not mean that there are still ghood opportunities in new zealand. My point is that at this end of the cycle you should be trying to buy good quality properties…[Read more]

For the record we are spending a great deal of our own money on a large investment.I woud not ask anyone to purchase something that I would not purchase myself. Now I wonder if everyone has that attitude

Dear Don and Liz

I could not have said it better. If you are buying an investment for the long term then what happens in the short term does not matter. I believe that if you can recieve a 6-8% or higher return in a city like Christchurch it will provide you with good long term capital growth. I believe that a this point in the cycle it is…[Read more]

Thanks Western I will keep that in mind. I have already learnt that I will not be buying in certain places. But then I have not had the pleasure of being on your escorted tour

Prices are higher than they were that means you have to be more selective on where you buy. Unlike some people I do not buy in second rate locations. I and my clients buy good long term investments. Iagree that the United States offers good opportunities. I am there next week. But unlike you Western I will not be investing in Buffalo
