Thanks for the info.

I’ve noticed that the publication date is 2002. Do you find that most of the info is still relevant?

Thanks,

I think the form 221D has been renamed.

If it is the capital allowances schedule, the URL from the ATO is http://www.ato.gov.au/content/downloads/NAT4089-03.pdf

Diana Ross appeared in court – well groomed with perfect make-up etc. Outside were a group of fans shouting “Michael, Michael”.

Interesting…

I bought a unit off the plan in Sydney using a put/call option. The reason for this was to defer the stamp duty until settlement.

I have heard (although this could be an urban myth) that with some developments RE agents won’t even try to resell the units because there aren’t the buyers out there. They don’t want to put their reputations on the line.

I thought when buying off the plan, if you don’t proceed with the settlement you automatically forfeit your deposit and also…[Read more]

I just saw Steve’s book on e-bay for $17.50.

I found the seminar very worthwhile.

It answered questions I didn’t know I had. I got to meet like-minded interesting people and gave me direction on what to do next.

I get advice whereever I can but ultimately the final decision and responsibility rest with me.

My test – by doing this will I still be able to sleep at night? If the answer is yes, then I go ahead.

Just to give you guys a bit of a pat on the back – I always use a mortgage broker.

A good mortgage broker is worth their weight in gold!

So if I hang round as long as Yack I might get to drive a Saab?

Maybe he’ll be my mentor?

I think the first article was written and polled by people in Melbourne and the second article was written and polled by people in Sydney!

I’m not an accountant either – but I thought GST was payable on commercial property?

I’m with the others – sell while you can.

A profit now is better than a loss later.

I had a great time at the seminar in Sydney last year.

Learnt lots and came away with many ideas.

My problem is not just the seminar fee, but the flight down, accommodation & leaving the family for the weekend.

If I was in Melbourne, I wouldn’t hesitate to go again.

Being slightly complacent…

As HK didn’t make many inroads into the Sydney market, I don’t think there be much impact on the Sydney property prices.

If anything the powers that be may tighten regulations but I’m sceptical of that too.

I’ll admit to knowing very little about the place – except nobody born there is called Tracy…

IMHO, the Ghan will only increase rail tourism but will have little impact on the number of permanent residents. My guess it may give backpackers more employment opportunities.
