Hi Ricky,

IPA offered a service

quote:All at no cost to the purchaser ?

So in actual fact this mean that all these services are FREE to the purchaser??? I don’t think so.
So how do they make their money [?]
Inflated prices and commissions. Nifty little way of absorbing the costs up front, but hitting you with the hammer from behind.
Can I…[Read more]

Hi there,

Nessie’s right about the plans for that area and it’s true the area has a slightly better reputation than neighbouring (vincinity of) Noble Park, Dandenong. Clayton which is close by is seeing it’s boom now. Just know your prices and do your homework before you jump in.
However, as I live less than 5 minutes from that very corner, it…[Read more]

Hi there,

David U, could you please explain a bit more about the CGT component, as I thought as an Aussie investor you consider the property like an overseas investment and that you are still responsible to pay CGT on Aussie terms…
I think I need some clarification here…

Thanks

Hi there,

I believe (my guess) after searching the Today Tonight (TT) web site, that a certain person probably threatened legal action OR that in light of allegations made of this certain person, TT have deliberately omitted the transcript of the show until it finds out its legal standing.
What do you think?
Another link, on a more positive…[Read more]

Hi there,

Nessie, as you mentioned, emotional buyers are who you want when you’re selling your property, not who you want bidding against you when you want to get a below or market value property.
Media hype…sometimes it works to the sellers advantage though. Whether it be property, seminars, books, cd’s etc… Leverage…
I’m always curious…[Read more]

Hi there,

I’m located in Melbourne South Eastern Suburbs. 10 minute drive up South Rd from the beach.
I could do with another holiday in Fiji! []

Hi there,

Your responses were awesome! Dave70, I guess the media has played a large part in directing the attention of the masses. I watched (I think it’s called) Hot Property, a program that shows the highs and lows of buying and selling, renovating and renting out properties. I may have watched snippets of a few episodes and one thing that…[Read more]

Hi GG,

Ditto on Leigh K’s method. It can get even more involved than that, with multiple accounts stemming from the same initial account []. Leigh’s method is what we have set up.
Depending on what interest rate (IR) you can get for new IP loan, sometimes the existing interest rate on the LOC (attatched to your PPOR/or split loan) is lower than…[Read more]

Hi Chan$,

What were the logistics in doing that? Did you have this in mind when you first bought/moved into your PPOR?

Hi there forumites []

Addiction??? [8D]
From where I sit, I think that this forum is a very positive place to share your ideas, thoughts and experiences regarding property investment (and sometimes non-related chit chat [:0)]).
I think what makes it ‘addictive’ is the nice people that you meet and/or chat/post to on this forum.
It’s a friendly…[Read more]

Hi vluu27,

Interesting read! I guess there will be more pounding on HK tonight at 6:30pm. I guess it’s a good lesson for us all.

Hi there,

Even though this is a newish post, there are some very useful posts made at the fist ‘useful links’ post. When I made this post I forgot to link to the old ‘useful links’ post. So I’m updating it now. You should be able to link between the two posts without to much trouble…[Read more]
