We have one owner who owes around $6k and while we know they are still there, no-one ever sees them and the debt collection agency employed by the strata manager has had no luck and is recommending legal action which could be costly… (they can’t take…[Read more]

I used to work at a bank and they do re-possess peoples' homes after a couple of months if there is little or no prospect of the mortgage repayments being met due to death, illness, injury, etc. There are probably other things you n…[Read more]

If you are really keen on shares you could discuss a Self Managed Super Fund (SMSF) with your adviser (probably best to mention it before they write you a statement of advice). However, I am not sure of the implications of your living OS on this – I do not specialise in that…[Read more]

Only a few allow direct shares and the quality and number of other different investment options can vary hugely between funds . Also, the…[Read more]

I am a financial planner based in Perth – OK, that’s not an invitation to send me insults, the rest of you!!

We live in WA too – couldn’t believe how lovely it is when we first arrived and decided to stay.

We are renting in lovely (but over-priced – hence the renting!) Cottesloe. Have only lived here for 18 months as originally from London and my partner is from Sydney.

I was wondering that too and I did a quick search on the Internet and came up with this article:

It is a bit old (so maybe no longer current) but may still apply and seems to come from a good source: http://www.newint.org/index4.html

Similarly, you can work out the yield for a property you are thinking of purchasing and then decide…[Read more]

I am a tenant too and wouldn’t be too happy if I were in your situation. I guess you have to decide what you want… whether you really love this house or whether you would be happy to move.

I think it would be fair to ask for compensation from the landlord if there are to be major works. I don’t think it’s much fun living in a house…[Read more]

We are tenants at the moment and we would appreciate that although you there is always the risk of them being uncooperative what ever you do. Maybe try to limit inconvenience to them with regard to inspections as it’s not much fun as a tenant having potential…[Read more]

How exciting that you are buying your first property!

Did you use the Buyer Beware templates for your inspection? We have just bought them and they look pretty good and useful for justifying price discounts so are looking forward to using them at our next inspection.

Good luck with the purchase.
