I believe there is a srong possibility that the person involved here is a Chris Catherwood of a business in which he and Matt Mercer are apparently partners (or members/executive officers) which they call “The Modern Millionaire”. You may email them as Either [email protected] or matt@theetc.
The company is Brisbane based, and I don’t think you will have any difficulty in finding a telephone listing for them. I have a very limited understanding of their business but gather that they make their money in servicing their client base rather than from the properties themselves. So make you own enquiries to satisfy yourself.Hi, My name is Mike and I have been associated with building contract sales since 1975.
The answer to your question regarding size is: the area enclosed by the external walls of the building. That is the building is measured around its EXTERNAL walls. Some creative types will give a square meterage “under the roof” which means they have calculated the area measuring around the perimeter of the eaves. With, say, a 600mm (2ft) overhang on a dwelling of say 8m X 12m = 96sqm, + 600mm X 20m would add a non existent 12sqm to the supposed size of the dwelling, giving a total of 108sqm. Areas usually include carports/garages and laundry unless otherwise stated. Valuers are normally concerned with the area of the property as one of the measures or means of quantifying the market value of the property.
In commercial leases, the total rent per sqm also often includes the walls and other unusable “space”.
Hope this is not too long, and adequate at the same time. Mike.
