I have Rick Otton’s Boot Camp material if you’re interested.

What did it cost you in the first place & what would you want for it?

If you sell someone else’s property, you need a real estate licence. You don’t need a license to sell your own property.

Hi bj

You need a full Real Estate Licence if you are involved in selling property directly by yourself or for example if you do JVs. Alternatively if you obtain your Certificate of Registration you can buddy up with someone who is fully licenced to sell property. It has nothing to do with the Credit Licence which is required if you provide/manage…[Read more]

Hi Brian

I’m a fellow Vendor Financier and just wanted to ask you a question. Noticed on your website that you’ve assisted with properties in NSW but only in country regions such as Albury/Wodonga. Have you done any deals in metro NSW, say in the western suburbs (eg: Blacktown, Liverpool etc…)? I don’t seem to find or hear of too many people…[Read more]

Thanks Kane9539, but no can do. I don’t have an income so can’t buy traditionally. That’s why I’m looking to JV with a seller as I have the VF skills and the time, but not the property or the cash.

Cheers, Tamara

Hi Chris
Thanks for your feedback. Yes you are correct re: my strategy. What sort of education materials would you recommend? Do you use them and are they effective?

Thanks
Tamara

Hi Andrew
I’m an Investor. I’m mainly interested in trying to set up a Joint Venture with sellers but with the market the way it is it’s hard to convince someone cash is not king. Have also tried to see if they would allow me to rent whilst renovating prior to reselling to someone else, but once again this has not been effective.

Cheers

My husband and I did his 3 day course many years ago and I wanted to get my money back. Unfortunately my husband didn’t want to challenge it and we blew about $6K. All I can say is avoid Roy Macdonald like the plague. He’s not the person he seems and does not offer things he promises.

There are much better courses out there. I’d rather do Steve’s…[Read more]

Hi Propertygirl

Is this still available? Email me at LTE@optusnet.com.au.
Much appreciated, Tamara

Sandtrackers, I too am being mentored by Steve D. Did he not advise you on JV’s? In terms of Rent to Own in WA, the gov is cracking down so you may want to be careful. Hope you (or whoever is responsible for the sales part of the deal) have a Real Estate Licence. I will probably need to get one myself and I live in Sydney.

Sorry, don’t know…[Read more]

Hi Newbie

Whilst the seller is contracted to the Agent for the period of the Agency Listing Agreement, there is nothing wrong with them selling to you privately after that expires. My theory is if the Agent can't sell the property in that time then tough luck.  No reason why you can't put a note in their letter box explaining that you're looking…[Read more]

My husband and I took out a Line of Credit Loan for our Home Loan – Big Mistake- HUGE !!!!   Never Again. Apart from the fact we took this home loan out over the phone (mistake number 1), it was never explained to us that if I stopped working and our income was cut in half, that we would be behind the eight ball chasing our tail. We just got…[Read more]

Check out the comments for my blog on LAND BANKING. Cheers, T43

I'm sure Rick mentioned on one of his podcasts that the WA Government implemented a Rent to Own scheme in the 1940's for people who couldn't afford to buy property. Perhaps this government needs to go back to their predecessors to work out what an Option is!

Agreed, steam cleaning is better than dry cleaning.  Just need to leave windows open or fans on to ensure the carpets dry quicker.

HI tlt57, can you let me know what's in the Black Book? (ie: content wise). Thx, Tamara

Currently using PriceFinder and have previously had a very short term subscription to RE Investar.  There are differences as with RE Investar you can source properties on the basis of categories like vendor finance, discounted etc.. and on a group or individual words eg: must sell, retiring etc…PriceFinder does not give  you that ability. There…[Read more]
