    I recently purchased my first IP in Qld from Melbourne. It was too good a deal to let slide. I signed contracts here in Melbourne that i would buy the property “subject to viewing the property first and my desire to continue with the purchase after viewing”. I visited, saw ans purchased.
    You can specify such a clause if you wish. You are the customer and the customer is “always right”. Well, most of the time anyway.
    Good Luck on top of good planning.

    In a lot of casses people buy without consideration of these appliances and yet a new gas heater can set you back $1500 or more [confused2]

    Harry,
    Approximately what would a typical “gas check” from a licenced plumber cost, a ball park figure??? Assuming there ia a gas oven and hotplates and a gas heater??

    Thanks Harry.
    I will add checking gas appliances to my list of essential things to check.
    Happy New Year to you.

    I too am a first time investor, buying my first interest only beach house in the suburbs north of Cairns. I have read oodles and asked questions ad nauseum of my accountant and think I am ready to do it!!! Reading the forums it seems that there is no black and white road to follow, just a series of tracks leading to where I think I want to be in a few years time. Still have lots of questions but now need to do it, buy my first property and carefully analyse and evaluate what happens and what it means to my wife and I. Then use that experience to move forward. It appears from the forum postings that this whole area of investing is a very personal thing that, except for a few basic principles, works differently for different people in different situations.
    Any thoughts from anyone?
