Update:
I've tried to buy the book from Chris's website (hard copy or soft copy) and it didn't work
I found it here for 1/3 of the price:

I found this in another forum:

Every now and then leave everything you know behind and think free;

Let say I have a property that worth $20k and I sell it to you for $200k and you can rent it out for $10/week… and oh boy, it will double up in 7 years! you don't believe me look at price of the houses in the last 7 years (2005 to 2012)

Does it sound like a perfect opportunity…[Read more]

I was wondering what are you investing in during these uncertain times.

(I'm quit lost as I can see the bubble in the charts but I don't see any sign of deflation)

Thanks Bardon
if you had the chance please read this book.
It is by Peter thorn hill and it is extremely powerful

I know that 99% of people here in this forum are pro properties and they would challenge this; but I think the foundation of oz economy is corporations.

Yes BardonThe good news is that if you invest in the right property, even if you lose money in equity short term or long term, you'll still be fine.Also I believe that inflation will get worse as government can see that people are becoming cash hoarders, inflation is the government's weapon to push them to invest.This will artificially increase…[Read more]

I'm with Luke in this case but if you had your mind all set for one of these two, then go for Rockingham.- It has a lot of big industrial corporations around including Rio Tinto, Leighton (SLC) etc and a lot of fairly large size corporation are working at Henderson which is close to Rockingham.- It is close to beach and 10 years down the track…[Read more]

If I were you my first step would have been talking to a savvy accountant and setting up a proper trust system while you are single.Just in case you got married and divorced again, you don't wanna lose everything.I know you are still hot and thinking I will never marry again but there is no harm in protecting your assets.BTW congrats on coming…[Read more]

You bought a house for $430k and rent out the spare room for $670!!!I'd say rent all of your rooms and move out to a new one.This is a massive CF+ property, don't worry about any diversifying. buy the house next door

BTW, we are using them as office on the barges and we hired them with windows and door and everything from Coates Hire.I don't think I can rent it to anyone.http://www.coateshire.com.au/site-accommodation-hire/

There was an article in YIP (or API, can't remember which) about a bargain hunter who purchased the property subject to the purchase price remaining secret.I was trying to explain his method for a friend of mine and I couldn't find the damn magazine.There are clauses that you can use to keep the purchase price secret.

Found this info regarding the trust setup:http://www.propertybooks.com.au/family_trustsApparently it is not suitable for my case.I'll dig more…

jnbThanks for your reply.Would you suggest any books regarding the corporate/trust setup and the taxing on the corporations that I can educate myself before I talk to an accountant?Thanks again

Jnb
Please explain a bit more.
I’m extremely interested in this subject.

Please tell us a little bit about the benefits and down sides. How much did it cost to setup etc

Thanks in advance
