Is it arsenic dust? It sounds like it for the price.

If so, you will need to warn your tenants about the dangers and make sure their kids get no where near the fence for a while.

Spot on Sis (as if you wouldn’t be!)

Positive gearing (a la Margaret Lomas), takes into account depreciation to make it +ve CF. The building needs to be post 1985 to get building depreciation and you need a Depreciation Schedule done by a Quantity Surveyor to get both building and Fixtures/Fittings depreciation.

The idea with positive geared…[Read more]

Hey Rubbachook. I am starting to get a big head now. I have been scrolling through some posts and you are the latest person (one of about 10) to agree with what I am saying on some topic.

Either I have become fabulously smart in the last couple of days [grad](doubt it) or someones trying to pull the wool over my eyes![fear]

I just got a pest inspection done on one of my potential purchase for investment. there are live termites activity on the side fence, but there are no activity in the house.

My parents helped us out with a deposit for our house. We bought 7 years ago and had a 15% deposit. My parents lent us $15,000 and we had the rest from other investments.

We could not have bought unless they were so kind. We new we were over-extending a little but it was worth it and we thought we could manage.

We have so far.

You are both right. Why? because I believe there is no right or wrong answer. Investing your own money should be something you are comfortable with but by all means don’t put blinkers on.

You will find many people on this forum have a varied portfolio and some will have on -ve geared, some only +ve geared and some only +ve CF.

Put yourself in the shoes of the locals.

If the houses around you were getting ridiculous money in your opinion and you were looking at selling, would you:

A. Sell it a the price you thought it was worth OR
B. Get on the bandwagon and get as much as possible since it is your money you are playing with. (case in point – Collie, WA)

No need, Chan.

Rugby Union is referred to as Rugby.

Rugby League is referred to as League.

Rugby was invented in 1880 something. Rugby League was a 20th century invention. That’s why it has the Rugby tag.

Did the inspection say the termites have gotten into the walls and floor? If so, it can be hugely expensive to fix this (10’s of $’000’s).

You should get a bigger reduction I think or at least get an inspector to do the wall cavities (more expensive and you will need the owners permission due to the holes they drill).
