It will also be for my PPOR and I will also be looking for the ‘ugly duckling’ one so that the price is more in my range. I rather enjoy renovating my home to my own taste anyway.

I don’t have any advice on this but good luck in…[Read more]

I ended up just keeping it pretty basic with just my details,
property details, offer amount and then I just put down ‘subject to’ finance through X lender and then ended it with the offer expiry date and date/signature.

My lender said that the REA would specify how much deposit they needed. So I just went with…[Read more]

People are on here to get some genuine help and be helpful in return. Not to receive useless comments that are ‘trying’ to get a reaction like a TROLL usually does. If you are trying to be a comedian I suggest you look into some courses because you lack that ‘funny’ personality!

Maybe leave it until next friday and see if the ‘lucky’ agent managed to get his price.

I talked to my friend about ringing the agent and she said she would go in and ask for a document to write a written offer.

She gets there asks if the property is under contract and was rudely spoken to. The agent didn’t want to speak to her and some one else said it wasn’t and she asked if she could…[Read more]

I will be staying with friends and will rent until I can find a house to buy.

The other houses for sale are marked up higher say $20,000 and have roller doors, window shutters, sheds etc.

There are no other properties in my price affordability.

I have no clue who should be my conveyancer? I think I will ring my lender now…[Read more]

So since there have been a few days since the first offer this is what I should do? Do you think?

1. Ring up ask if property still on the market.

2. If on market – explain that my friend introduced me to the property and had made a first offer which was declined.
Could I ask if vendor willing to negotiate a lower price?…[Read more]

What exactly is a pro forma? I have looked on the net but didn’t find much.

So do any of you think I should just do the negotiations myself through the phone and fax?
Should I just ring up the agent myself ask if the property still on the market and I’d like to make a written offer?
What if the agent says the vendor…[Read more]

If you are painting make sure you use washable paint as I am currently renting myself and the cheapo paint that they have used is ridiculous. I would say they have used the cheap ‘flat plastic’ paint that does not wash off. Not a…[Read more]

Yes I will only put a written offer in this time.
Do you know if you can put in a written offer if there is a contract on it that has not been finalised yet?

How would I give a cheque if I am interstate? Is the cheque refunded if the vendor rejects the offer and how do you know he won’t cash it in?
