  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic Most EXPENSIVE IP you Purchased in the forum Opinionated! 17 years, 8 months ago

    163k for me but its my second property and i am only 21. Took alot of negiociating with Westpac to get it over the line.

    Some young guy is paying $140p/w for it.

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic To those of you who have more than one IP in the forum No Subject 17 years, 8 months ago

    21 y/o own 2 small apartments just outside Perth CBD 290k Loan but with about 140k equity so not a bad start for someone my age with boomsville. Hope to invest in queensland before the end of the year and still paying off my World Cup trip so i am living the life.

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic Invest or wait? in the forum Help Needed! 17 years, 8 months ago

    positive cash flow propertiss are almost impossible to find in Perth these days. You best be going for capital growth anyway.

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic Property potential loss of upto 100K! Help in the forum No Subject 17 years, 8 months ago

    Get rid of it and Invest here in Western Australia where you will make your money back quicker.

    Re: Westpoint collapse

    On another note stay well away from this company….

    Powerloan

    http://www.powerloan.com.au/

    This is the company that recommended Westpoint to my mother, how ill informed were their financial advisers. They took my mothers money just days b4 the collapse

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic How do I find a positive cashflow property in WA ? in the forum Help Needed! 17 years, 10 months ago

    Your far better off looking for Capital growth than positive cash flow in WA.

    The market is very different since steve went on his journey.

    Hey Mate,

    I bought when i was 20 last year and found out that if your young banks will usually lend you alot less than someone older. Basically you need to go speak to someone and maybe from there you can have a stradegy to help you buy your first home.

    Cheers.

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic I’m about to slash my wrists… in the forum Help Needed! 18 years ago

    Look at Craig Turnbull he became a millionaire at 28 and a year later lost it all. He looked on the brightside and started it all again. I wonder how much he is worth?

    Persoanlly although i’m the young apprentice property investor if i was in your situation i would sell for a loss and invest somewhere else. You might have a better chance of…[Read more]

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic Why WA?? in the forum Help Needed! 18 years ago

    The cheapest 3×1 in Perth are in Maddington, Armadale and Thornlie. ALl properties sell for around 250k and 3-4 years ago these properties struggled to fetch 60k. The 200k 70s apartments were 50/60k just 3 years ago.

    All though no-one could ever predicted how big it was going to get i guess hindsight is a good thing.

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic I’m looking to invest in property in Bulgaria in the forum No Subject 18 years ago

    There was a thing on CNN business world saying how investing in bulgaria is the way to go.

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic The Investors Club in the forum Heads Up! 18 years ago

    I was talking to Derek on monday and Yes Steves first book stradegy has no reference to the Real estate world these days.

    The book though is a good read but it comes down to personal preference, For me i’m interested in capital growth.

    But with the IC i went to a meeting on Monday and was quite impressed with what they said. Probably not a bad…[Read more]

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic first homebuyers grant Q? in the forum Help Needed! 18 years, 1 month ago

    make sure you live in it for 6 months. If you get caught and they do check you will lose the grant and pay something like a $20 000 fine a top of that. Ouch!

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic crazy perth property in the forum Help Needed! 18 years, 1 month ago

    Yes, as i used my grant i need too wait until june but i will most probably buy in May and settle just after the date.

    If i had the cash i would of ditched the first home buyers grant and bought more property a little earlier its not worth it!

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic A sick persuit of money in the forum No Subject 18 years, 1 month ago

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic crazy perth property in the forum Help Needed! 18 years, 1 month ago

    But back on topic, the main thing that is hard for first home buyers is that they are not competing with Australian investors but also overseas investors.

  • Carl.Alexander replied to the topic crazy perth property in the forum Help Needed! 18 years, 1 month ago

    Perth Property is crazy! i’m desperatly waiting til June so it will be one year after my settlement and i can buy more property[angry2].

    Most properties in Perth as it said on the news last night have multiable offers and the final price is alot higher than the asking price.
