    GregF,

    Hi,

    I have aquestion on the comment you made,

    “Now you register as an owner builder and do your own sub-contracting or get a builder to build a new brick house or a couple of duplex units on it which you might use as long-term rentals, and your property portfolio is off and running with a real head start.”

    My question is what is the advantage of registeringas an owner builder?

    I also have 3 sets of duplex i bought and very happy with results and would like to try out at building.

    Thanks Dom[biggrin]

    Thanks guys,

    Great info i am taking everything on board have purchased a block of land with old house 1012sqm.

    Would like to keep house but unsure how to go about iT as it needs about $15,000-$20,000 to repair and it may cost the same to move it onto an other block.
    It has some water views and is less than 2 kilometers from a town of about 35,000.(QLD)
    What would you do?, any advise would be appreciated.

    Update.

    Good day DOm,

    I received your mail and am glad to hear from you again> i got your email address from http://www.owner.com.au, when i was in a search to buy a good house in Australia.And i choosed to transact with you because my mind directed me to you, as the first trial, and if it works fine. if it doesnt,……………

    I want you to understand that this transaction, is very legitimate.

    Me and my late husband made this money when we were contractors in NEPA NATIONAL ELECTRIC POWER AUTHORITY as chief contractors in Liberia.Before the crisis that end up the government, which took the life of my dear husband away.which leads me to BEnin Republic.

    SO this money is the money in which i want to make use of now in buying a house inAustralia and investing there, and reside there permanently.So i nee dto hear from you for futher details.

    Roseline Shedrak

    Good day Dom,

    I got your mail and i appreciate you for your understanding.

    As it stands now, the first thing is to get the fund out of the bank, so you can now, help me get the type of house i like, because getting a house without the money ready and talking about the investment without this fund realesed is still…………..

    I have contacted my lawyer over these, because you have to know my status here as a refugee in another mans country.And i cant have access to this fund unless i get a foreign partner who can stand as a beneficiary. Although the money is much. And i wil like to do the transaction in a legal way.

    So what i want now is your trust and time devotion as you have been doing.I dont care giving you a share out of the fund, so far you can asure me that you will, take everything in a confidential manner.

    SO LET ME KNOW YOUR CAPABILITY OVER THIS SO THAT WE CAN CONCLUDE QUICK AND GET THE HOUSE BOUGHT AND ARRANGE FOR THE COMING OF ME AND MY DAUGHTER.

    God bless you.

    My best Regards.

    KP,

    Only pain is you have to fund the borrowings during approval and construction process, without rental income coming in.

    Unless their are already 3 old houses on block and you can remove one as you build while other two are ernted.

    Josephfok,

    Thanks for the great advice i am looking at two parcels of land one has a house on it and the other does not.Waiting for councils answer on what i can build.This would not be for re-sale for a few years it would be more for + cash flow from rent as i will put in large dposit.And i believe it will be a great investment when times are better.One question i do have is that if i build is it a general opinion that you could sell for more then what you have built for.I would think that this would be the general the reason why most people would go to the trouble in building.

    Thanks for the input Kay.
    On the particular investment i am looking at their are 20 units and ten have sold and it has not been on the market long it is about 10 min walk to beach and it is a small beach town.

    At $260,000 for two bed unit i feel it is not a bad investment.This area is north of brisbane so Acey dont know much about melbourne.

    Redwing this is for investment for a quick profit after say one or two years Capital gain and i holiday their quite frequently.

    I am not greedy i will start with the house and the car.
    And it is not like this at all, most people will have different answers or goals.
    This thread started with a question so what exactly is your answer?

    why do you want financial freedom ?

    Working for some one else sux.
    Do this do that. F U i say to my employer.
    Why,because if my boss,facilitator,team leader or what ever the hell they want to call themselves knew more about my job then i do working for someone else would be bearable.

    The new thing that seems to be a trend is to employ graduates whom employees have to train whilst not getting paid for it.
    They lack so many skills its a tradgedy for employer and employees.And of course it fails miserably.
    If i can get away from all those incompetent employers and become one myself that is why?
