Nice idea this – tends to remove much of the anon syndrome from posting. Personally, I have gained alot of useful info from this site & it’s great to see such a varied bunch of people wanting to help others.

Thanks for sharing your techniques and plans but why is everyone so concerned about others knowing what towns they are researching & buying? From my experience, I have found everyone looks for different qualities & has different tecniques when purchasing. I…[Read more]

looks like you got some good info from Quentin and AD there. Good to see both sides at all times.

I am in a similar situation as yourself (other than the age bit). Great desire to get out of my ‘job’ and work full-time on investing.

No-one else has come in yet so thought I’d make a statement.

In my mind, depends very much on your strategy and plan. If your going for +ve only I would have to say keep looking. If your group includes good buy & hold’s for CG ( & this meets that requirement), doesn’t seem too bad on the surface.

Information is limited so hard to…[Read more]

I guess there are many different ways of locating and negotiating IP’s below market value. My wife and I are total novices at IP’s but we do know how to listen. We recently managed to purchase significantly below market value by asking the vendors what THEY wanted. Purchase price didn’t come into the conversation until the very end of…[Read more]

Now that’s what these forums are about. Let’s hear a little more about your strategies etc. There are a thousand different ways of doing things and it looks like you have been through a few of them.

All I can say is read through as much info as you can if you take the time to log on. You can do it, if you really want to.

Good luck

Very good information in the article you mentioned. An area that interests myself and many others I would assume. I have a deal at the moment that may fall favourably within the criteria & shall be looking to finance in that way.

Thanks

How about it? You going to make the Wealth Gaurdian available through your Resource section?

Many of us have no hesitation in purchasing the education we need, however it is not always possible to attend the courses / seminars due to work commitments etc. I for example live about 11,000 km away (as the airlines fly).

Any clues on where I could get some information on interested partners &/or companies/individuals that do the leg work? I think this in itself would be a reasonable business as I know several people in similar situation.

We bought 4 properties in the Urangan area about 18 mths ago but prices are forcing us to look alsewhere now.
