hi robo,

haha:) yeah – I’m hoping to have one of my first IPs paid off in bout 3-4yrs – then I plan to use the rent from that IP to pay for a the mortgage on a 2 storey – allowing me to capture the ocean views:)

I’ve still got one more hurdle to get over, which is the finance. I’ve already seen a broker – though I just need my current IPs…[Read more]

Hopefully the…[Read more]

Thanks Don and Liz!

This is what I know about the seller so far…

They bought two blocks a couple years back, with one being the one I’m after and the other being another one they have for sale.

These blocks have been on the market over 1 month now.

The owners live in Mindarie keys (quite a rich area), with the husband staying at home, and…[Read more]

hi jhopper,

the agent has replied saying that won’t go any lower than $185k – so do you think i just don’t reply at all?? Obviously though the agent will probably call me tommorow asking what i would like to do…

In regards to Easter – are you saying it’s usually harder to sell a property in Easter?

I thought that in Easter people would have…[Read more]

Dazzling,

yeah that did cross my mind!!!

bugger… looks like i might have to walk:(

i said to the agent that if I speak to my broker I may be able to get $180k – therefore please can you ask the owner to see whether it’s worth me speaking to my broker – and whether he is prepared to negotiate anymore…

He replied saying no, he won’t go any lower than $185k.

I think i’ll have to put…[Read more]

Hi guys,

Update at 11.02am.

He’s come back saying he’s not going to go any lower than $185k.

I’ve got my last draw card of $180k.

Do you think I should wait a day or so before I tell him $180?

I was even thinking of leaving it over the easter weekend – though as calvin mentioned – it’s only a couple of grand compared to the bigger picture!…[Read more]

Hi guys,

Thanks heaps for the feedback! It’s great to hear all your advice!

In regards to the value of the block I believe it’s worth $190k, and once marmion ave and a few other developments start in a couple of months – who knows!

However, saying that – my ‘walk away’ price is $180k. I can’t afford to go any higher than that – and won’…[Read more]

interesting strategy foundation! dunno if i’m that ruthless though;)

Here’s an update at 7.43pm:)

They counter offered at $185k to my $177.5k, i’ve now just countered with $178.5k – he’s going to sleep on it and let me know in the morning…

will keep ya posted!

btw, does anyone know how long you can consider an offer for? eg, is there a…[Read more]

foundation – what do u mean by ‘gazunder the week before settlement’?

Hi guys,

thanks for the replies!

After just talking to my broker I can go to $180k so do you think I should let them know that tonight -or wait until tommorow?

The value of the block isn’t really in buying and holding on to the block though it’s in building a new home on it and selling it off. Two storey homes in the area r selling for…[Read more]

Thanks Marisa, and others who replied:)

Thought I’d let you know – I’ve taken the bull by the horns, and have just put an offer on a block! Its located in the far northern coastal suburbs of Perth – they’re asking $190+ so I’ve started my offer at $175k:)

I just placed it then, so I’ll let you know how I go!

Cheers

Wayne
