I’m the middle of divorce proceedings. What would be the best way to determine a properties value in 2011?

I noticed in some properties magazines they have residex info listed. Is there anywhere online that has this information for 2011 to 2015?

Kind regards,

Pete

St George are bumhats. There was a stage in my life I wasn’t doing to well work wise and wanted to refinance by consolidating my credit cards extend my loan term by 5 years (originally I took the loan over 15 years) so it was more affordable. I could comfortably pay the new repayments. But they wouldn’t do it. Left me locked into high…[Read more]

For a short period of time I was semi-employed. Made sure the mortgage was paid first, credit cards last, which means I defaulted on an $800 debt. I thought it was no big deal at the time. I paid out the $800 debt plus all their stupid money making fees, but I was still left with a black mark on VEDA.

Some really good info. I guess I’m just feeling restless and keen to jump in head first. You are right I need to wait a little until I get the divorce soughted.

But it’s hard when you see an old (but tidy) fibro house in the middle of a 1400m2 block that no one likes because it’s not modern, new, or fancy. I think “Build new brick piers…[Read more]

Thanks for your reply. But you shouldn’t draw a conclusion with only limited info. I didn’t use a condom because when I married my wife I had every intention of getting her pregnant because I wanted a family. I never regret having my kids, I love them like you wouldn’t believe. When we married I brought $600,000 equity + $200,000 cash…[Read more]

I’ve read Mc Knights 0-130 properties and Kiyosaki Rich Dad, Poor Dad. I’ve just come back from seeing a mortgage broker and can’t see how anyone can just keep buying properties?. The whole using Trusts to leverage income time and time again is a load of crap.

Need to refinance a loan. I tried with the NAB and got knocked back “mainly” because of my casual employment and two paid defaults.

Any suggestions?

Just heard the sales pitch from a rep from Destiny Holdings Investment. Asked the rep three times if they were affiliated with Margaret Lomas, and got no answer.

Does anyone know anything about these guys?

Read onebad thread about Metropole, and even then it wasn’t bad because of poor service. It just came down to bad luck. Even then Metropole helped cover some losses.

However, I’ve called atleast 7 or 8 times to get an appointment with these guys with no luck. Has anyone else used these guys?. How did they perform?.
