Cough up your address Bro. I know some people who’d love to talk to you and share a few laughs.

Wow. Racial taunts on the Kiwi Thread of property investing. LOL. I don’t suppose you have the moral strength to talk the talk when you are talking to the majority of Bouncers in Australia?

A fair question perhaps, but what use posting qualifications on an internet forum? What does it matter providing the advice I dispense does not cause harm to others?

Congratulations on being a lot more savvy than the average punter. I have a course that can help you achieve financial independence. Coincidently it requires an investment of $22’000. Don’t worry. You’ll make your money back in no time.

Don’t lose faith now!

For goodness sakes property goes up, on average, 10% a year!

Don’t lose your nerve. If you sell for a loss then others will be encouraged to do the same. Then there really will be a crash.

Personally I couldn’t pay my debt off tomorrow and can’t really see a problem with that. As long as the asset backing is there I figure I have a good 30 or 40 years to pay it off – what’s the big hurry?

Hi everyone,
the Herald Sun today claims house prices, in Melbourne, are on the way up, after a December quarter rise in median house prices. Just wondering what other forumites feelings are about the current climate, and whether or not you feel this trend will continue over the next year?

Wow – Reading this forum is a real eye opener. I can’t believe people are ready to jump in at the peak of the biggest asset bubble the world (yes it is world wide.. Ireland, US, UK, RSA, NZ) has seen. Guess you don’t want to be left out when you retire and swap “loss” stories at the Nursing Home.

I am shaking my head in utter disbelief.

23 and wasted time? wow you are keen. Just in case you don’t know it all please do some research into asset bubbles. If you believe that property can’t go down then think again. Then if you believe it go ahead.

Look up the investment clock. Where do you think we are right now?

This bubble is based on the bigger fool. Hope you aren’t that…[Read more]

I love it. For a fee I will find you great investments that are cash flow positive. I don’t want them because ……. well that is the question isn’t it.

That sucks. They are behind but not that behind that they know to get their money before you sell.

Let us know how it goes.
