If you are still thinking about these people as a tennant you could suggest a radio collar dog fence to them as part of the contract. The dog wears a collar and there’s a wire fence that runs around the perimeter you want to keep them inside. As the dog gets closer to the fence it emmits a noise and eventually gives the dog a zap if it…[Read more]

I’m sure you’ll already be aware of this but every paper, book or newsletter I read lately contains messages about how the ATO are cracking down on CGT and people not paying their fair share – if there’s such a thing! Make sure all of your accounting records are sound and up to date so you get to keep as many…[Read more]

A couple of things to consider though, make sure the bath isn’t too high to step over as this will stop less mobile people from being able to use it (you might have to factor in a step); definitely do away with the shower curtain, in my last place I used a fixed glass panel that was only 600mm and it looked great…[Read more]

Thanks Dr X, I have sent you an e-mail.

I strongly advise that you e-mail your Q to mentor@propertyinvesting.com

That’s what I did initially, and was told there is only 1 mentor (see my post also in this forum it has the e-mails and a response from Steve).

Cheers

I got a friend of mine (who is an investor so walked the walk and definitely talked the talked) to test my agent, and…[Read more]

The opportunity may never present itself again – free anyway.

I say go for it! I recently sold my own home after dreadful experiences with not 1 but 2 agents.

A few pointers:

– make sure you write to the agent and formally terminate your contract with him. If your agent hasn’t supplied you with a weekly report that includes the names of those people that have been introduced to the property by…[Read more]

I have had an interesting day, it seems I have created a bit of a storm in a teacup – not at all what I set out to do, however I felt the information I was given in reply to my questions needed to be made available to others.

As a result of my post I had the pleasure of a half hour phone conversation with Steve McKnight this afternoon…[Read more]

I’m in the same boat as you – and asked a similar Q a few days ago, got similar responses in relation to reading Steve’s 2nd book (which I had already read) – perhaps Hellman is on commission!! Don’t give up though if this is what you want to do. I gave up a good paying government job in March this year to follow my dream and work…[Read more]

You type in your figures and it does all of the calculations for you. I too have just started looking for my first investment, and it’s hard work. You could well be on to a winner though. Are you able to value add to the…[Read more]

I have read many Q’s and A’s over time on these forums similar to mine and no-one ever gives a straight answer. I can read books until the cows come home but that’s not going to make me money!!! Perhaps this concept doesn’t exist any more.

You’re right I…[Read more]
