Hi Marty,
Yes, we have used Prosolution.
I couldn’t recommend anyone higher. Stuart & Josie are committed to excellence. I remember they saved our tails at the 11th hour and found us finance about 11 days before settlement (when buying 5 units and using a new trust). It’s all a memory now, but at the time, it was pretty impressive going by Stuart. (It is a long story).[blush2]
Sorry Simon, I think Prosolution would be hard to beat. Of course I haven’t tried yourself yet!
Try reading some of the testimonals on his website. You’ll find ours there, amongst many other respected forumites. Or perhaps do a search on this forum.
Prosolution operates at all times with ethics, which is rare these days. (Simon excepted)..[biggrin]

DelThanks Steve,
Only 12 sleeps to go… [biggrin][biggrin]
This move has been a long time in the planning!Regards,
DelWESTAN,
GET BACK TO THOSE BOXES!!!
(and I’ll get back to mine)[blush2]
Best wishes with the big move home,
Del
Hi Amanda,
Great work!! Sounds like you bought well…[biggrin][biggrin]
Would you care to disclose what area the house was in, or even the state.

DelHi Leo,
And of course we all believe everything that we see on TV or read in the newspapers don’t we…..[baaa]
If the TT mentorees really “WANTED IT BAD ENOUGH”, they would have at least made some attempt.

Hi Redwing,
From what I remember, nothing happened!!
I think that the TT mentorees (is that a word?) expected Steve to do it all for them, and that’s not the way that Steve works. That’s not what mentoring is all about.
Cheers,
DelJohn,
We would love to check out the blocks, then maybe we could all cool down in the pub and discuss investing in HB and BH!! [biggrin]
Catch you soon,
DelHi John,
Thanks for the reply…
You don’t have to “SELL” Burham Heads to me, I am already the converted – I LOVE IT. So does my husband, Will. He can’t wait to get up there to do some fishing! We would love to own a beachfront property there. We see the values there and Toogoom really jumping in a few years to come. I might come and see you in about 4 weeks when we shift up there!
$425,000 for a BEACHFRONT NEW property does sound reasonable, but not $425,000 for a normal new property 5-10 minutes from the beach. There are estates up there selling land for around $120K for 1/2 acre blocks. These are a fair way from the water though, and I’m not sure on the covernants. I know that some covernants up there are very restricting. Not sure about Dolphin Waters convernants though.
I was a little confused before with your posts. How far is Dolphin Waters Estate from the water. Is this the land you are referring to as beachfront. I’ve been there but I remember it being quite a fair way from the beach. There are lots of estates up there that are not selling at the moment though.
I love reading Bernard Salt’s info on Hervey Bay. I am trying to get into Real Estate myself and I am very interested in the stats on the growth, but we were shifting there anyway (from Melbourne), because it’s a great area to bring up kids.
See you up there,
Del [biggrin]Hi Freddo,
I think that you are referring to the MAP Program. (Millionaire Apprentice Program).
We were one of the group that Steve mentored.All I can say is that the results of the group were astonishing!
Not just us, (we were pretty average), but many in the group did things that 12 months earlier, they would have never have imagined doing. The investing results were good, but the personal growth that we all experienced was the main thing that we all have benefited from. (thanks Steve).
The techniques that Steve taught us, can be put into practice in ANY real estate market.
Perhaps do a search on the MAP program. If you have read both of Steve’s books, you should know about it. Or are you referring to the TV audience people that he mentored?
Regards,
DelHey Katfrat,
I have just sent you back an email…
Isn’t it funny how sometimes things are so obvious to others, but it’s as if you have got blinkers on yourself and can’t see it.[blush2][biggrin]
Glad I could be of some assistance…
I’m sure the house will sell soon. Officer is a great town.
Cheers,
DelHi John,
As an investor active in the HB area, I’d like to see your data to PROVE that the houses would sell for around $425,000…. I think you have a good imagination.
There are still lots of facilities to be put in the area before blocks start to really sell. This is going to take years.
Most blocks are not selling AT ALL in Burham Heads and developers seem to be selling off whole developments to walk away from them. I know because I looked at buying one not long ago. I am moving to HB in 4 weeks and I have seen Dolphin Waters Estate and others.
PS – I do love the Burham Heads area. It is a great area.Regards,
DelHi,
We live in Kooweerup (for 4 more weeks) not far from Officer…
All the windows of the RE Agents in Pakenham seem to be REDUCED – MAKE AN OFFER type ads…
This tells me that you are probably doing well to have got 4 inspections in 5 weeks.
Take a long hard look at the price and work out if you are kidding yourself at the price that it is listed at.
“DO YOU WANT IT”, OR “DO YOU WANT IT”???? How much do you want to sell?
If your goal is to sell, cash up and move on, then bite the bullet and price the house accordingly. It sounds like renting the house out is not an option that fits in with your goals.
Consider the lost opportunities of NOT investing in WA…. Just my 2c worth [blush2]
Good luck,
DelHey Westan,
I just realised that we usually agree with eachother….[angel][angel]
Perhaps we should do a CD together… [strum][guitar]
Maybe about investing in New Zealand??[biggrin]
We could call it NZ Property to go.com!!!
What do you think?[blush2]
Del [biggrin]
Hi Westan,
Interesting reply…[biggrin]
I personally wouldn’t be recommending to anyone that I know to invest in NZ anymore. Especially with the VERY likely interest rate rise. I don’t see the point of being an offshore investor and investing at the top of a boom. NZ could suffer flat or negative growth now for many years, similar to Australia. (If you believe Aussie John).
One property that I purchased in NZ, had been on the market for 7 years – believe it or not![bawl]
At least if you are investing for cashflow, you have no large holding costs while you are waiting for appreciation.[agro3]
Is Buffalo America’s Tokoroa?????[blush2][biggrin][clown]
Sorry, but it seems to be copping the same flack that Tokoroa did a year or two ago.Cheers,
DelHi Keenaz,
I don’t want to be a wet blanket, but do you think that NOW is a good time to be doing property fulltime, and expect to earn a reasonable income out of it?
Many investors are preparing for a property downturn and getting themselves in a better financial position to weather the “storm”. There is a LARGE possibility that interest rates will rise early next year.
Just remember that when starting out an income is VERY important to enable you to obtain finance, and to build up momentum.
Good luck,
DelHi Westan,
We leave here the 12th, I think one day before you leave there!
I’m sure you are all as excited to come back as we are to go!
I am taking bookings now for HB!!
Come and stay with us anytime.. [biggrin]Good luck with your big move.
Hope you can get your furniture off the wharves! They are a BIT SLOW at the moment!!Del[biggrin]
Hello Gross,
You don’t get your Licence until you are actually employed by a RE Agency, so I have to wait. Hopefully I will get a job before not too long.[blush2]
We are shifting to Hervey Bay, and although the property market has been in a bit of a slump lately, there are amazing developments etc. going on in Hervey Bay, making it a fantastic city for serious capital growth in a few years. I have no doubts that a smart investor will make lots of money there soon. (hopefully me also).. Hervey Bay is the 2nd fastest city in Australia for capital growth (after Mandurah, WA).
I would love to have some quality investors (apart from myself) on my books before I start work [biggrin][biggrin][biggrin] That would be too good to be true!
Unfortunately I won’t be able to buy all the good deals that I come across, so it would be great to pass them on.
Anyway, yes I will definitely be “the new kid on the block” with lots to learn, so come and take advantage of me![blush2]
Cheers,
DelHi Dazzling & all,
We are shifting to QLD in 6 weeks… (excited)
This shift has been 18 months in the making!![biggrin]I have just completed my Real Estate Certificate Course via correspondence through REIQ, and now I am studying to get my trainee Auctioneer’s Licence.
You are never too old to start again and follow your dreams (hopefully)[blush2]
This is something that I have wanted to do for about 20 years, so now that the time is right, I have no excuses.
Wish me luck?
Del [biggrin]
