Hi Derek,

Another good spot is just at the courtroom doors on adjournment and as close to the moving “huddle” as possible.

Interesting SIS.

Never been a tenant went straight from mummys home to 1st investment prop which became PPOR.

As AusProp hinted there are some bargains to try out (rent).

I will be a tenant soon so I can see if i like an area before buying into it for new PPoR

I agree Brahms it could be hard proving negligence > but as Derek said when the question gets asked in court how they arrived at that valuation figure I think a few people will begin to sweat anyway.[biggrin]

Kay I am not being critical…i was trying to be light hearted ( i mustve failed sorry)

Taxs are fundamentals I beleive.

Additionally taxs are more likely to come and stay..then to come and go.

Taxs are fundamentals because they are involved in all logical property decisions. With CG, tax minimisation through depreciation etc etc.They also have…[Read more]

If you call gut feeling a decision made after studying fundamental and technical indicators then fine.

A gut feeling made on an emotional decision is russian roulette and will lead to failure more often then not.

The market areas i am looking at are down 10-20% from peek. I think they have another 10 -20% to…[Read more]

Banks love the ability to repay debt eg A Job.

I think lil man you should concentrate on this minor detail first of finishing yr schooling to acheive that job…(whilst saving along the way)

Unless you can do a deal with your folks to get something happenning whilst you are finishing school. That way you will have a massive headstart.

The last 3 yrs have been great for property. Take that off and i think you find that shares out performed property. Shares have only really gained back there loss in the last 15 months. A similar thing was done when “money” was on tv and shares marginally outperformed property.

In 3 yrs time could be a bit of a reversal as to what is the better…[Read more]
