Hi Serry,
Thanks for your post. I have had 2 quotes so far, and 3 or 4 more to come in yet. So far I have been quoted $12,400 and $17,025 for the same job. My thoughts is our roof should cost around $10,000 as we only have a small house. If you have those contact details for a good roofer I would appreciate if you could send them through. I have…[Read more]

Thanks for the laugh.
I was hoping someone could tell me if there is a free copy somewhere I could view. Either on the internet or a library or at the BSA or something.
I need more information on minimum reporting standards for building and pest inspections.
Cheers

Sorry Scott No Mates,
I am not following you. Suppose you buy a property @ $300,000. How do you know what rent to charge your tenants. Is it percentage of interest on your loan, percentage of purchase price. I am not following the math in your example above.

Do you know if you could pay upfront for a P&I loan, or is it only on IO loan.
T_H_G_H replied to the topic Is it true? in the forum Finance 14 years, 6 months ago
Ahh, so Terry you are saying that if for example you pay your interest upfront and the rate you pay is 6%, and interest rates go up to 6.5% 2 months later, you could potentially save half a percent for the remaining period of that year.
So if you are doing this for a number of years, and interest rates keep climbing, if you are paying upfront,…[Read more]
