Jambv,
You could try looking in the meter box. Sometimes the meter will have an installed date on it so that might help if it is the original. Also the termite protection company should have a sticker in the meter box detailing that it complies. This should also have a date on it. Failing that, you could try the compliance plates on the…[Read more]

Foundation,
Where you say “Where a $10k rent-deficit would have cost them $5800 per annum, it will cost them $7000*.” This really means an extra $1200 per year or $23 per week. If you had to take a LOC to cover this short fall then the actual cash from your pocket (to pay the interest only) every week is only $1.62 assuming 7% interest on the…[Read more]

G’day all,
My strategy is to use the $ from the tax deduction on negative geared properties to help service the interest only loan. With the tax break announced in the 2006 budget I will simple use that cash in place of the reduced tax deduction. Obviously the change won’t be equal but I certainly don’t see any problems especially when you factor…[Read more]Pudestcon replied to the topic Vacant block value in the forum Help Needed! 18 years, 7 months ago

If the brick veneer house has eaves which are lined with flat sheet and was built before 1987 then it is almost certain to have asbestos sheet outside (the eaves sheets) and may have asbestos inside in areas such as bathrooms and laundrys. A building inspection report should tell you whether asbestos is present or not but why not ask if this will…[Read more]

Jason,
If the house was built before 1987 there is a very good chance it will have some asbestos sheet in it somewhere even if it is only the eaves sheets. The cost to demolish will vary depending on the type of house construction, quantity of asbestos to be disposed of and where the house is situated. Contact a professional house demolisher such…[Read more]Pudestcon replied to the topic Feedback on Investors Club in the forum Heads Up! 18 years, 9 months ago
