The guy whos will be the head of agents rang me today. So things are happening.
My C.V. is pretty impressive. I have been in finance for 20 years and have held many Management & Senior Management Roles over that time and I’ve worked for some of the biggest lenders in the country and won many sales and service awards.

You sound like my hubby, he only needs around 4 hours.
I haven’t got my kids at the moment so I’m making the most of it as I can sleep in, in the mornings. The kids are back on friday so it’s back to the 6 am starts and I’m really not a morning person

Classic properties are affilliated with Classic Holidays the time share mob.
Went to one of their seminars the other week to check them out. It was pretty much the same old marketing spiel.

My Husband is a Fully Licensed Real Estate Agent in Qld and works as a buyers agent on the Gold Coast. He has been in the Real Estate Industry here for 20 years and knows the market better then anyone. He is also a Licensed Builder and has also put together major development sites.
So if any one wants any help, he is available.

I think she has done alright there.
I’ve worked out what building you are talking about and it is in a pretty good spot.
The thing about QLD is the stamp duty is a bit cheaper then most of the other states.
I was reading the other day that the Gold Coast Airport has had another record year and I know over the christmas period you couldn’t get accomadation anywhere.

I am a big believer in having a balanced property portfolio. At the moment I have 3 neg geared properties and I have subsidised the loss from them by purchasing + geared properties. Now when purchasing – geared IPs I then purchase a + geared
IP, so I’m not out of pocket.If I was in your shoes I wouldn’t be selling any of your properties if you can afford the repayments.

Don’t know the building but it’s in a pretty good spot.
How much did your friend pay for it and what rent is expected to pay?
A lot of the apartments in the new/newer buildings ar quite expensive and aren’t really getting that good a return. You can still pick up older type apartments in some of the resorts for pretty good money and the returns are pretty good.

As this will be you first property if you purchase a place to live in you will be entitled to First Homes Owners Grant of $7,000-.
If you are a first home buyer in Qld and the property is to be owner occupied you will not have to pay stamp duty.
For a $147,000- property investment in QLd you stamp duty would be around $3,900.
Do you have stable employment history?
Also if you sign any Real Estate Contract always put “A Subject to Finance ” clause to safeguard yourself.

Did your friend purchase a new or established property?
Was it a high rise or a low rise?
Whereabouts is the property?
I was in Surfers this morning, talking to a lot of the agents etc. Most of them say they’re pretty busy, but we’ve just gone through the peak period.
Market is pretty stable up here at the moment, but there are a lot of highrises being built at the moment and heaps yet to be started.
The biggest problem up here is the infostructure (roads etc hardly coping now).

For you not to have to pay LMI the lender will lend on 80% of valuation.
I have noticed in the last couple of months that vals have been coming in quite short. So don’t be surprised if it comes in a bit less than what you think.

If it was me, I’d be paying a registered valuer and have a proper valuation done on the property. This would then give you a ballpark to go on instead of relying on appraisals from RE agents. You can then make your decision from there whether you keep it or sell.

Typical.
I know heaps of people that worked for a property marketer and it was the same old story. You leave you don’t get paid. My Hubby is owed $110k by these people, but I don’t think we’ll ever see it.
Anyway, how’s business going? We are a bit quiet in the residential but development finance is booming.

I couldn’t believe it a few years ago, when I decided to go back in workforce after having kids, I went for an interview with Aussie through an employment agency and couldn’t believe the crap they put you through and then they make you pay to work for them. What cheek.
