Looks like all is good with the property market bottoming out as far as I can see.  Chuffed to bits about lots of my loans coming out of fixed rates and then back to reduced variable, that coupled with high rents makes the holding costs much smaller. I am sure that I…[Read more]

We have just successfully negotiated an offer from a Qatari company to buy half of us.  Its now a deal subject to DD with a cash settlement in 6 months. Fingers, arm, legs crossed on this one.  Cant say anything else about it but happy days if it comes to fruition.

That's two bob each way In my books.

Just went unconditional on the sale of one of them as  I am looking at a major reno on our PPR and wanted to reduce my debt level.  I have…[Read more]
