HiNot a problem as long as the contract or assignment of contract is ok with the title company closing the deal. All you need to do is email the title company your contract to find out. If you need contracts then samples of these are available online. Just google it or try http://www.reiclub.com...

I have property in Frankston. Bought Sept 2007. 2br unit – now renovated. Purchase $190 – New Value $265 – Renting for $235pw. I passed on a house mid 2006 for $195 on 770m2 now worth $320k (duh!)Nothing wrong with Franga although you have to screen your tenants carefully. It is a hard one to work out as it is one of the few suburbs in Melb where…[Read more]

Hi BoshyYes just had a similarly fraustating experience via the ANZ recently. The left hand has no idea what the right is doing! They have laid off 800 people so they say, yet opposite to what the media is saying about lending being down, they have had a HUGE increase since Sept/Oct with interest rates lowering so much and the 4 banks holding all…[Read more]

Hi Maree,

The property mentioned in the first post is in Frankston. I have REAs in that area as well as Clayton, Oakleigh, Mt Waverley. Also beachside suburbs from Chelsea to Seaford.

I also have a loan with MyRate or Loan Services Australia or is it ING ??? The answer/reason they gave you is the most back to front screwball excuse I have heard from a call centre operator for a while. Funds were cheaper 1 and 2 years ago hence the low rate they offered. Now funds are more expensive to obtain, so if their standard variable rate…[Read more]

Hi Sunnygirl

Probably best to refine your searching to one city. The US is huge and there are many many different markets even in the one city you choose. If your friend has ‘ on the street’ info from Chicago and knows property to some degree than follow that through.

There are Aust. investors working in Texas ( Sherman, San Antonio, Houston) as…[Read more]

HiI have had a project manager offer a set 'wage' per week of $600 over the build time of 22 weeks.

Hi AllIf you email me and receive an over quota return email, it is a hoax so please delete. (Don't aopen attachments either)

New loan is set up if the property is revalued to release the new equity. Otherwise equity release should be in the form of a redraw against the equity in your existing loan on your PpoR or IPThats my experience anyway.

Hi Noobie,You are remarkable! You have taken so much action since the first post late last month I'm in awe. Well done on the portfolio and your attitude is second to none.My philosophy when the chips are down and the glass ceiling is reached on the loan department, is use other people's money. Sounds callous, but not if you team up with a…[Read more]

HiI have a strategy in Melbourne that could apply anywhere that creates positive cashflow for specific properties in very specific areas. It is based on Steve McKnights philosophy of CF+ props but with a twist and it works well. If you are interested please email sapphire101@bigpond.comRegardsIan

Hi Sheilsey,Wow that last post would put you off insuring anything. What a nightmare! But….. more to do with insurance companies and slack rental managers than the pool.The key element in your question is not the pool, but buying under value!. If you are getting this property at a great rate and have done a building report ( especially on the…[Read more]
