    No, it’s imposible to buy positive cashflow property in Australia…

    And that “aero-plane” thingamajig will *never* fly! [;)]

    Seriously though… your brain will give you the answers to the questions you ask… A better quality of question may be “*how* do you buy positive cashflow property in Australia?”

    Just a thought!

    Thanks Everyone!

    Oh and FW, yes, I know that in the book Quasimodo doesn’t get Esmarelda but, hey! we’ve never been ones to do things the traditional way (our wedding vows included promises “to adventure together towards our most magnificent and cherished visions”! [:D]).

  • quasimodo replied to the topic Offers?? in the forum No Subject 21 years, 7 months ago

    A couple of ideas…. if you’re not doing them already!

    1) Listening and asking questions: You can’t solve a problem without knowing what it is. If you can find out exactly what the vendors need, when, how and why they need it your chances of finding a unique solution that flies will surely go up.

    2) sales – Keep presenting your offer (to the…[Read more]

    I wouldn’t be even thinking about this until it’s cleared with the ATO Gunner… unless you have one excellent exit strategy! [:O]

  • quasimodo replied to the topic Update Advice in the forum The Treasure Chest 21 years, 7 months ago

    Hey Steve!

    Nice article! I especially loved the clarity of the “guaranteed losses versus potential capital gains part”. I wonder how many “investors” today honestly believe that a property market is *ever* capable of a correction?

    Hey Soosh!

    Have you tried ye olde trick of offering a bonus to the first person to sign a lease on it? Usual examples include a book of movie tickets or even a DVD player for a longer lease – people usually imagine they cost much more than cheap ones can be bought for!

    I have a couple of friends who have tried this after a long vacancy period,…[Read more]

  • quasimodo replied to the topic Book Title Contest… Win ‘The Lot’ in the forum No Subject 21 years, 7 months ago

    Hi Steve…

    A couple of points before my suggestions:

    1) As someone who worked somewhere [:)] promoting John Burley for quite some time, my opinion is that your biggest unique advantage (or USP) is that you know how to do it in AUSTRALIA! I’d get that in somewhere.

    2) 36 months sounds shorter to me than 3 *years*.

    3) You may choose to look at…[Read more]

    If you want to talk Steve into adding spell checking to this forum, you “may” [;)] want to let him know he can legally download a spell check modification for the forums here…

    If you go to either the finance wraps forum or the John Burley forum, they both keep track of which messages you’ve viewed and which are new. This way, intead of being told that there are new posts somewhere on the purple foldered topic, you can see which ones you actually haven’t read before (eg the last 3 posts on this topic are new).

  • quasimodo replied to the topic What do tenants contribute? in the forum The Treasure Chest 21 years, 7 months ago

    Seems to me that if the tennants bought a house they would have to pay their excess water and bottle rental, so why would it be different given that they bought the house on (your) vendor finance?

    Personally I’d try and have it included in their contract that they pay it to me and that I pay to the utility companies. That way if they “forget” to…[Read more]

  • quasimodo replied to the topic Property Investing savvy Solicitors & Land tax in the forum The Treasure Chest 21 years, 7 months ago

    Hi Nadine!

    Welcome to the board!

    As to finding a good solicitor, foremost I’d look for one with experience in the area you’re looking at (eg wraps) or failing that, someone who at least is open to the *possibility* that it may be doable. In Sydney you can check out Tony Cordato (his website is at http://www.businesslawyer.com.au and the number is (02)…[Read more]

  • quasimodo replied to the topic Dazed & Confused! Help! in the forum The Treasure Chest 21 years, 7 months ago

    LOL! Happy to help however I can, although there’s many on this board more knowledgable than I!

    Many of the fees you mention (water, shire rates, most repairs etc) are actually paid by your tennant buyer if you are doing wraps, helping your return (of both time and money) considerably! [:D]
    Others (such as strata fees and management fees) can be…[Read more]

  • quasimodo replied to the topic How should I approach this one? in the forum The Treasure Chest 21 years, 7 months ago

    Sounds like a great investment to me!

    I see the figures being something like this:

    every $1 on painting = $4 back at sale
    every $1 on cleaning = $6.50 back at sale
    every $1 on lawn-mowing = $9 back at sale
    every $1 on exorcism = $25,000 back at sale (priests don’t tend to charge much…[Read more]

    Howdy Praet!

    First up, congratulations on getting that first (and soon second!) investment property all by yourself! Many would choose to use the less than %1,000,000 enthused spouse as a great excuse for a life of mediocrity, so you’re obviously willing to do things a bit differently for a better life.

    Just out of interest, why are you…[Read more]
