Has it occurred to anyone that James has disappeared?     No response from James yet…

Thanks Keiko.  Both kitchens are nice and modern but likely only one would need removal.  Will let you know how it goes.

Hi Elkham, theirs are owner operated  but we checked with another agent who is not the selling agent and yes there is demand.  I didn't ask how much but that is a good question to ask.   It's also near a "medical uni" type facility which to our way of thinking would have a steady stream of newbies looking for their own place, driving past each day…[Read more]

I'm with Crashy on this one, I think it's dreaming.  One, maybe?  Two, (three months later) would be amazing…but three or four?? and to flog them all off within that three month period, making what you are wanting, in this market?  I don't think so.  You'd be running around like a headless chook for starters.   Yes there are bargains and yes p…[Read more]

Number Three for me…

We've seen the property and reconfiguring isn't needed (as I understand the word) but the kitchen in one would need to become the reception area, and a kitchenette created in the laundry for staff.  In the other unit, it would probably need a room divider of decent quality dividing the kitchen off from the lounge (future waiting room) and a…[Read more]

Down Crashy, down boy!   LOL   I'm with you Crashy, if hubby and I can do it ourselves, decently, we do it. 

Not currently looking to make one, just noticed a number of ads with this on it, and figured I'd ask the question before I needed to know the answer!!

Is there much you would have to change inside to reconfigure them to what you are proposing? Also what is the car parking requirements of that particular council?We've bought it as a duplex as it's bringing a good return 8% but looking to twist it.  Nothing would need reconfiguring, but have yet to learn the parking requirements.  However, it ca…[Read more]

Thanks Micheal 888  I'd already done that by phone.  Yes it's zoned resi but is open to applications for professional consulting rooms.  And g_o_m, on another property in Qld I simply made an free appt with the town planner and showed her the various ways we could subdivide a property and she showed me which would be approved, should I apply.  We…[Read more]

Thanks Vicky, appreciate your thoughts.  I am not the type to let agents boss me around but did wonder how others handle it.   Kerrie.

Thanks for the heads up, will check it out.

Thanks IP Freely, for the reply.  Yes the 3 bed would bring 250 and the 2 bed around 150.    So when one strata titles, one is actually subdividing?  I don't know anything about it yet, just knew that a duplex could be strata'd.  So the strata costs are under 1500 p/a, but from what you are saying, there's rates on top of that?  I will ring the co…[Read more]
