I think sometimes it’s harder to convey what you really mean if people can’t see your facial expressions (the smilies might help a little though[biggrin]), and also no help from expression in our voice, so people can just take things the wrong way relying on text-only.
THings can come across differently than we intend, things can sound harsh while…[Read more]

No more exasperation reading posts from half brained idits,…

I’m glad you’re talking to just the men on this forum, Pisces, lol hehehe.[whistle]

Thanks heaps Chan! How do ya like my cute image?
Took me ages to choose, love the images! So better go go back to [buz2] and get some work done now!

Have started reading the new Lomas book yesterday night, interesting so far, you’ll have to be familiar with her other books because she refers to them throughout this book.

Hi again Kay, Rubbachook and others answered your question for me better than I could have!

I’ve only read one book by her so far, I liked her idea but I do think that this strategy is less powerful than buying CF+ straight out, since you can’t keep depreciating, it has to end somewhere, also it only works when you’ve got income, so what if you…[Read more]

[suave2] sis!
[exhappy] for you!
But [jealous] I am a bit!
[wink2]
I hope it works out for you.
[buz2]part as well as [strum]

Yes thanks SIS, oh I regret so that I can’t go there, would have wanted to go. But I promised a friend I look after her kids for the weekend while she moves.
Didn’t know that it was going to be on when I promised, so next year I am going to find out early to keep that weekend free!!!
I heard that Hans Jakobi is speaking as well, would have loved…[Read more]

I have just bought her new book: A pocket guide to investing in Positive Cash Flow Property.
I’ll start reading it tonight.
I’ve read “How to create an income for life” but may have to re-read parts of it since it was a while ago.
I like her and ther’s free software, too.
What do you think of the software if you have downloaded it?

WOW sis, where are you going?
Is it [buz2] or [strum]???

“I doubt if the market rent is $170 he will probably not find a property that rents for $150 easily anyway.”

Sorry this sentence didn’t make sense and I can’t find an editing button??????

I meant to say that I doubt that he will find a property like yours that will rent for $150 if the market rent is $170.

On the other hand, if the market rent for this property really is $170pw as your manager says, and you are only going to raise the rent to $160, then your tenant is still getting a good deal.
I doubt if the market rent is $170 he will probably not find a property that rents for $150 easily anyway.

If everybody is keeping their rents much lower…[Read more]

I’m just doing research on the internet about a new area I’ve set my eye on, just want to find as much info as I can this weekend.
Husband hamster and son are busy making more shelves in the large toolshed and clearing some stuff from the garage, which is so full of tools, timber, paint etc you can’t even walk through the garage. But ‘we might…[Read more]

I have just one [glum] yes one property, neg geared (5.01% yield), bought it just before reading Steve’s book last year. Really nice, good quality house and land in good location in Dubbo.

I have been looking for a CF+ property for months now but haven’t been lucky in finding something I was happy with. I’ll keep trying, RE Agents are getting to…[Read more]

Upline, downline, in the middle, where ever you are or wannabe, if the pyramid tumbles, and it will at some stage, you are all on the same level again: on the floor of the dungeon, and this is the reality.[upsidedown]

Yes Kay, I checked on the website and in fact he does give this guarantee of your money back if you don’t make 5x the amount of the cost of the course in 1 year.
It sounds really good, doesn’t it? Now I just need a spare $3000.
I could take it out of my LOC but don’t really want to do that, and pay interest over it[worried], [puke].

Do you, or…[Read more]

Good on you Yack, this is what she deserves!

I just dragged up this oldish post, because like Mel, I also received the info/flyer on his home study pack, and I feel…[Read more]

I agree with Mel.

I also think it may be wise to make up your mind about whether to sell your PPOR or to rent it out, or to keep living in it and have it revalued to be able to use the equity you’ve built by adding value/renovating before you finish decorating/renovating.

You see, I think if you decide to keep living in it, then you would…[Read more]

[offtopic]I LOVE these smilies!! Seeing them for the first time, haven’t been here for a couple of days.[happy3] [inlove][thumbsupanim]

ANyway, back on topic, I thought that even if a lease is in place, in the case of a property being sold, that the vendor has the right to end the lease early as long as a month (after exchanging contracts) notice…[Read more]

We seem to agree a lot Chan![][^]

Hehehe I’m scared! No I just read it in one of the posts somewhere that someone called her Jenman, I think (hope) it was a joke.[:o)]
