Do not know about the company
but
Do not sign anything until you have an independent solicitor look over the contract.
 If you sign before this step your solicitor is not much use to you

Also.

Get an independent valuation so you know the property is selling at market value or below.

Do not rely on a solicitor or valuation provide by

Adayoun Capital Markets

Get an independent solicitor and valuation.

Do your own research into the area which you intend investing – beware of 2 tier marketing.

Adayoun Capital Markets & Barry Pickering

For some years now I have been a keen observer of this and Jan Sommer’s site, I find it a great learning tool but working on computers all day at work have never got involved. After reading some posts seeking information on Barry Pickering yesterday I thought it was time to tell my story. I first met Barry and his wife Julie at one of the property expo’s in Sydney in 2002. His company Onsite Direct had a stand and he stood and talked through my potential first property investment with me for about ½ an hour. I stayed in touch and about 3 months later visited him in his office in Surfers Paradise, he reworked my finances to as he described it build the correct foundation, then assisted me to find a property. Over the last 7 years I have got to know Barry extremely well and in my current portfolio of 10, 7 were purchased and financed through his company. The properties I purchased through him have far out performed the 3 I purchased under my own steam from both a capital growth and rent return perspective. I know he sold Onsite Direct Group in January 2008 to a public Company and semi retired to Darwin, if I ring his mobile he answers and will talk through anything I’m thinking of doing, his opinions are logical and many cases experience based, after all he has over 70 properties in his own portfolio. A great example of this was in 2005, I rang him  for his opinion on a investment option I had sitting in front of me signed and ready to return to the investment adviser, a unit off the plan in Port Melbourne and a $200,000 equity release into Mary Street No 1 fund returning 15%. Barry explained how Mezzanine funding worked and that it was high risk related, he explained that his research into Westpoint was not good and he held grave concerns for how they operated, he talked me out of it, the rest is history shortly after they collapsed and I still had my $200,000 and deposit on the unit.

I guess that gave me 200,000 reasons plus to join and tell my story.

I didn’t know he was coaching in Darwin until I read this, he is the Kevin Sheedy or Wayne Bennett of property coaches.

I hope this helps you with your interest in Barry
