    Plus, I don’t delete all the posts, and I’ve never moved one from one forum to another… there’s other moderators too… [:)]

    Hi,

    I went to an all boys Catholic school in Box Hill, Melbourne.

    It was fantastic, left school 12 years ago and my best mates are still the blokes I met there.

    I think there’s great private schools and great public schools… but a lot of it comes down to the individual as well.

    Cheers

    I had a chat on the phone with AD a fortnight or so ago… he’s pretty busy at the minute building his empire, plus looking after the “billy lids”

    Hi,

    Brisbane’s been booming for a while now, I think the Queenslanders on here will back that up. Out of the east coast capitals it’s the one that’s probably got the best growth potential over the next couple of years, but yields aren’t so good anymore. Have you looked into median prices v median rents etc of various suburbs?

    Cheers

    G’day Chris

    Tassie’s been running hot for a while now.. as always, do your due diligence…

    Your research will give you your own SANF (Sleep At Night Factor)…

    I wouldn’t call it the Holy Grail of property investing… it was discovered a fair while ago

    When I was sweltering in Miami a couple of years ago, I told one of the people at the backpackers that I was just going to go and put some thongs on… copped some very strange looks from the Yanks. [:D]

    Hi

    ACA has done stories (or at least, a story) on Steve and his wraps, describing him as a saviour for battlers looking to own their own home, so there you go, it’s not all one way traffic.

    If this prop costs 65k, rents for 150, and if your repayments on, say 70k to well and truly cover all your other costs are $102 per week (at 7%), what other costs have you calculated for a week to week basis apart from rates, insurance and management fees? There should be a positive cash flow out of this property unless it’s got massive body corporate… is it a unit? house?

    Cheers

    Fatboy,

    Kay would have seen your post, I edited it after her next post appeared, and yes, you’re right, I overlooked the one that made no sense, so it’s gone too.

    Cheers

    Hello again,

    I must admit I’ve found a stack of them still around as well… yielding around 9.5 to 10%, decent properties in regional Victorian cities… but we’re not in a position to buy just now… still sorting out some other things like a wedding, but we’ll crank up again early in the New Year, I reckon there will be even more around over the next 12 months or so…

    Cheers

    SIS,

    Any chance of divulging the stats of the places you’re buying? In terms of purchase price v rent received? It’s cool if you don’t want to, I’m just curious to know what yield you’re chasing.

    Cheers

    Hi Cornel,

    Why not have a look around Rockhampton when you’re at Great Keppel? It’s just up the road…

    No not at all muppet… I’m looking forward to taking the plunge, hanging up the boots, putting the cue in the rack… whichever cliche fits.

    still in school…

    isn’t your partner a female? I remember you referring to her a while back when she was away and you were trying to get 3 new loans. What’s her connection to you?

    To get some of the good contracts, I suggest a healthy donation (at least 7 figures worth) to George Dubya’s re-election fund… the best contracts are going to go to the Americans.

    Hi,

    I’d just like to congratulate richmond. I think he is the best bloke around for being so ruggedly handsome… mysteriously charismatic… physically imposing… and yet, sensitive.

    He is a thorough gentleman and should have played for the Tigers if it wasn’t for a knackered hip. He constantly fights off hordes of women, dishing them off to his friends in a caring, sharing way that leaves no-one with hurt feelings, because richmond only has eyes for one lass… soon-to-be mrs richmond… a brilliant paramedic around the northern suburbs of Melbourne.

    I also like that he’s in constant denial of reality and admits to being a pathological liar (except for the bit about soon-to-be mrs richmond).
