The decider's for us:We wanted to invest close to home but its hard to find cf+ properties in perth metro and we are too busy.One of us pays a lot of tax so we could benefit from a negative/neutral geared property with some capital growth potential.We wanted to make both scenarios work.We did our…[Read more]

Hi Caz,As jmsrachel mentioned, a reasonable cost would be in the $10-$15k range for a new kitchen excluding appliances. the cost depends on the size of your kitchen, eg how many cabinets are required as you realise big kitchens need more cabinets and more bench top and it all adds up. Other cost factors are finishes, eg…[Read more]

Hi Caz, I would highly recommend TS McMahons auctions in wangara. I did a full kitchen reno a few years back. I now have a solid stone bench top, & a enamel sort of coating instead of laminex on the cupboards. They all come ready made, you just bolt them to the wall. you do have to have a good imagination on how it will fit in…[Read more]

Sanded it all down made sure it was all sound (pvc glue in the areas that needed it), Painted with oil based undercoat and paint in a light colour and it looked fantastic. You can also fill the grooves in veneer and joins in wallpaper and sand back to smooth if you want to. Not…[Read more]

I've not seen another NRAS opportunity advertised in Perth and I'm wondering where one does find them.

After some experimenting I discovered that the stuff only extended 18 inches from the skirting and  was soluble with metholated spirits it then washed off with water. I did spend a few days on my hands and knees but at least…[Read more]

They are warm and soft under foot and very hard wearing, also water proof, and look great. Cost less than a similarly durable carpet and damage is easily replaced by the strip…[Read more]

I've been looking to buy something under 300k that is at least CF neutral and not having much luck. And yet there is a lot of talk locally about the lack of affordable rentals and the difficulty of renting a decent home. Makes me wonder if Perth rents will rise higher sooner rather than…[Read more]

I just posted a question about this scheme in the help topic. I am not sure how this scheme can be an advantage to small investors looking for just one property. Can you explain how or else let me know if its not worth considering on a small scale.ThanksCarolyn

I've been seriously looking at the granny flat idea and we think it would be a reasonably good solution to have one put in.
