Hi there,

Is this your first investment? If so, I would stick to Cronulla, as this is the area you know. If they both seem like good options, yet you know one area better than the other, to me it seems you go with the area you know. This may help with mitigating risk.

Hi there,

Stephanie, my son was the only one allowed to go nude in Fiji [] and he loved it!
Michael Long, it’s true that some people lean more towards either giving or taking, but I guess I look at life as a Roller Coaster. Generally, Where you enter the ride, you also get off the ride.

Hi everyone,

From the moment we are born, we take. We take nutrients from our mothers in utero, but we also may give the mother a sense of pleasure at being pregnant.
Human nature is about a balance between giving and taking. We take in Air and we give out CO2, we give friendship and we take comfort from others.
Sometimes we loose track of what…[Read more]

Hi Del,

Thank you for your return wishes [] I am glad to be home, in my own bed, even though we had a lovely trip.
I must admit I did ask about property prices. Mainly, houses on the mainland are cheaper than the island houses, due to the fact that the cost of building is cheaper, rather than using tow boats to lug building supplies across the…[Read more]

Hi aussierogue,

Hi NishuG,

It is true that the crime rates are higher in certain parts/areas of the suburbs you mentioned. A lot of the crimes are drug and gang related. People still live there however and you should get insurance on your property which would cover you…

Hi,

I haven’t got experience myself, but a family member has done this before. The cost of transporting the home can be horrendous. Then you have to still get approval from Council and building report, then connection to utilities etc.. Now as I mentioned I have no experience, but after listening to someone relate their horror story of…[Read more]

Hi Stuart,

It’s a good entry point (or so I’ve been told) to the coastal market. There are others aswell. I still feel that you can achieve better results interstate in certain coastal towns, now achieving high capital growth.

Lakes Entrance is very popular during Summer, it has a great resturant called Miriam’s, there are wineries, fishing…[Read more]

Hi Michael,

Well after my surgery, I have so many scars, I’m the ‘Human Road Map’ []. I’m packing for my Fijian trip at the moment and I’m going to take a digital pic of all my belongings, for much the same reason as the newspaper trick! My scuba gear costs about $800 or more.

I’ll show you a positive cash flow property that meets the 11…[Read more]

Hi there,

Let’s just say…(scenario here)
you were driving to inspect one of your IP’s could you claim this as a taxable deduction? [}]
I think not, but it’s worth trying anyway!

Sorry to hear about your fine.
