Also any suggestions for insurance companies for house insurance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi Everyone,

I am a long term PI.com member however haven’t logged in for a couple of years.

I’ve been reading this with interest as we are looking at investing in commercial properties in the States and are currently in negotioations on one in Memphis.

Can anyone recommend a bank/ financier who will lend to Australians? We set up an LLC and…[Read more]

Thanks so much for the info. 

We find it makes such a difference knowing who owns the property, when they bought it and how much they paid.  We use the Tassie site all the time.   It's especially good for contacting owners direct.

Hi Troy.

Any luck with finding someone to help?

We are in a similar position in Tassie.  Have 2 lovely 2brm units ready to be tenanted and NRAS would be ideal but the allocations seem to be all tied up.  Want to build more but Money Partners are hesitant but NRAS would certainly help us in this regard.

Hi Opee,

In Tassie the scheme has been run so badly and is a total mess.  Pete & I are small time developers and have a couple of lovely 2brm units that have just been completed in Sorell, 15 minutes from Hobart CBD.   They are on the market for $265k each and would rent out for atleast $275pw each.  We have had a few people interested, including…[Read more]

Hi Steve,

That's why I thought that if we could get NRAS approval, get…[Read more]

Hi Kristin,Our unit is in Warrane, a suburb 10 minutes out of Hobart.   I believe the Gold Coast market is pretty bad at the moment so the chances of her unit up there selling is slim.  She has reduced the price considerably however not prepared to go further.We are having another Open Home tommorow.  On previous Open Homes we had no one turn up…[Read more]

Thanks for your feedback.The Agent put a price bracket of $315-$335k on it and we have reduced it twice in the past 3 months and it's now sitting at $289k.  Properties in this area are selling in to the $300's so I don't feel we should reduce it any more.Although, what do you think if we put say $250k on it, maybe it would get more interest and…[Read more]

Hi,We use Mark Unwin & Associates in Kew and Mark is excellent.  We have been Property Developing for about 8 years now and have used Mark for the past 5 and he is extremely knowledgeable and approachable.  RegardsJackie

Thanks for the info Debbie.We have a really slack agent and haven't signed anything with him for the sale of them.  I have asked numerous times as to the cost of advertising in the Commercial section but he's been very slack in finding out the info.  We are in a tricky situation whereas he is the only agent in town that can collect the rent on o…[Read more]

Thanks Duckster for your info.  Will look into them all.Cheers Jackie
