hi guys
in my trust janine (wife) and i are the appointers, i am the trustee and my children, my wife and myself are the benificiaries.

Hi Misty
i’ve played it a few times and enjoyed it everytime. It’s not the sort of game i’d want to play every week though. the funny thing with my experience is those played the game as the live life. My friend whose game it was never got out of the rat race on any of the occasions he played. He kept landing on “doodad” cards and like in real…[Read more]

Hi George
i’m not the expert who wrote the book on trusts but my understanding is the assets are still protected in the trust from personal litigationeven if you are the trustee not a corporate structure. As the asstts in the trust are owned by the trust not the trustee. so if i was sued they can only pursue my assetts not those of the…[Read more]

Hi Monopoly
First of all i want to say my comments were not ment to be a personal attack on you.
What i see as the “faulty” view of cash positive investing is that it is done at the expense of capital growth. I feel that this is wrong. We should buy cash positive that will appreciate in value. Yes it can be done if you invest carefully,…[Read more]

Your exactly right Yack, this is a hands on Business here, not what i’d call passive income. If you are want to buy a business then this may be ok ?, but don’t expect an investment with minimal input from yourself.

Hi guys
well on your senario Jo i’d go for the 5% plus 10% growth, mathematically you end up miles ahead in the long run.
HOWEVER
i feel that the question comes from a faulty view of buying cash positive properties, this is something that poor old Yack still can’t get his head around (we have had lots of good debates about this).

Hi Guys
sorry i’m tougher.
if you want to make it quickly then the best thing is to keep renting and build your investment portfolio. i believe you need to buy cash pos and areas that will go up.
you are better off if you can give away the idea of your own home till you are set financially. it is far cheaper to rent than to buy especially if you…[Read more]westan replied to the topic Kalimera! Welcome to my web site! in the forum General Property 20 years, 7 months ago

Hi samngav
that is a good question because most people when they start out don’t have much in the way of equity.
it shows how important it is to buy well, if you buy for less than the going rate it will be easier to get the home revalued at a premium to your purchase price. as the other s have mentioned you can add value (eg paint job) to…[Read more]
