Bureau of Met must be having an off day. It gets quite cold in Gundagai – its about 450km South of Sydney & past Canberra on the way to Victoria. Yes hot in summer but bitter in winter.

$65k gross (with probably 20% outgoings), no lease expiry profile, no due diligence on fire/mechanical/hydraulic services.

So the headline rate might look good but at less than 8% net for a unique rural property which does not appear to have any really good leases in place (highest payer is likely to be the hardware/storage).

You don't always get a less than desireable tenant in these areas but you have to be prepared for some of the bumps along the way eg: unemployment, relationship breakdowns, first time out/no credit history etc.

So it comes down to what you expect from the tenant and what you get as payback (risk).

Is it still possible to withdraw all of your super if you are relocating overseas with no intention to work in Australian. again?

And do it tomorrow not next week or it will be too late.

There’s nothing I like more than putting a cat among the pigeons or stirring up the odd pm. You would think that if the pm gave an order then the invoice would flow to the agency (what if you had sold, run off with Mistress Dub etc)

Shoot your PM! Ask them for a copy of their privacy policy ie how do they protect your anonimity & what they can do with your personal details.

Ask how the contractors found your details as you didn’t engage them directly. Advise the pm that another breach of their privacy policy & you walk.

What's a new shutter worth? Probably not much more.

Sounds like it might be time to engage a surveyor, solicitor & valuer to get your deal over the line.

Agents don't generally get involved in marketing options over a private treaty because they sell property where they get their commission in 42 days (not on the never never plan where the option is subject to a lot more than achieving an approval on a development site).
