I have been staying at a relative's place in Bray Park, which is near Warner. The surrounding suburbs of warner, e.g Bray park, Lawnton have lots of housing commission houses and above-average percentage of working class/unemployed people. There's nothing really e…[Read more]

I do not believe it is just a contract agent. While I have also benfited from MY's books, newsletter and seminars but in my mind, it does not necessarily mean that his company's buyer agent service would be the most suitable for one's buying needs at a p…[Read more]

While at the time it seemed a good idea but I realise now that it was not a good move. I have approached the vendor to see if I can get out of one since it was relatively recent. haven't heard back from them yet. I guess at the worst, I will have to try to sell one before settlement. I put it down to a mistake and not a…[Read more]

First of all, the procedure should not be referred to as 'surgery' as there is no surgery involved. I prefer the term eyesight correction. It took a whole 1 minute of sitting in a kind of dentist chair, the laser machine is brought down…[Read more]
