I did a valuation search at Titles Office, this gives you the owner and contact details. If it owned by a company it may not give you a person’s name, but it will still provide you with a postal address for the owner.

Is this the sort of info you are after?

You are totally right.

I realise I need to pay the bucks to begin with, however it will have to wait until we have some bucks in order to pay it out again[blink].

This is only part of my query however. I am also after recommendations as to who in Brisbane would be good to speak with. I have heard tales (probably tall, but…[Read more]

Do you know anyone in Bris that could help with my financial questions and do I need to sell the car to pay for the advice?

I really want to get started now…deep breaths basil!!! [glum2]

I know it will work out in the end, and thank you again Mapleleaf.

I am afraid looking at someone else’s litter doesn’t always reflect the true situation. As a staunch whole & organic food advocate, I know that it is sometimes – no, almost always – cheaper to eat junk food…particularly pizza & coke!!! (YUK!).

What you are doing is fantastic. I am considering doing an owner builder course (have been for some time), and have helped in the renovation of a couple of properties. I see oportunities everywhere, however, current financial constraints mean that I am probably going to need to get some assistance from somewhere!

I have to say Dazzle, you made some really good points in relation to the use of emotive words. I have to agree with you in that one person’s ‘ruthless’ is anothers kindness, and as such can certainly not be considered as any sort of measuring stick.

If I remove the word ruthless and replace it with, say, ambivalence…[Read more]

We just did a ‘Valuation’ search at the Titles Office (Dept Nat Resources), This provides you with a name and contact address for the owner of the property, also the price they paid, the current Govt considered value, and various other information, at a cost of around $11.50 (give or take a few cents).
