My4, oh to be 24 again )

Sounds like you’re in a good situation. Did you/will you get a redundancy package? Or were you on contract work? If you werein permanent work, check out if a package is due to you- it will help you greatly

ok Chooks, I’ll go there… Let me put it this way… Here’s a riddle for you…

I’m of the political pursuasion that’s more likely to be doe-eyed, than I am to go to my daughter’s wedding, read books to children, or get drunk and steal a bottle of wine and flip out in the senate and half pull a woman’s arm off.

How’s that grab you?

Well written Anubis You said it much better than I could.

Celiv :o)

As with all things, one has to determine what one’s priorities are and what one can afford etc. I imagine I will probably never go to a seminar, because I doubt I could justify to myself spending those amounts on it (I would rather give that kind of money to my family, I think). I’d probably go to a free foum though- not many around,…[Read more]

Marisa,

The people above has spoken about high yields, and of course they are gonna take up on huge yielding properties where rent is king- great way to make money, so those CF+ properties are always gonna be a good deal, if the numbers stack up. That’s swhy the CF+ market will always be popular and it’s a matter of seeking out the deals and…[Read more]

That has to be one of the cutest stories ever, Rugs :o)) You are VERY creative!

WAF,

Don’t be too hard on these folks. They are just trying to chill this topic out a bit. I personally think playfulness is not such a bad thing. There’s a child in us all, no?

kay henry

Can we all go to the property expo in sydney? *salivate*

kay henry

Well, Chook, the link you provided above was a lefty link, so if that’s your true colours… it’s easy to determine [smiling]

kay henry

How do you think we get schools, hospitals and roads unless we have taxes, folks?

I think it’s ok that we pay our share.

kay henry

ok, here’s a summary of my life.

Oh well, at least you guys can debate and still be humorous and not disgraceful. How come you are both sleeping? I am like this: [lmao]

kay henry

Yes foston,

I remember the days of Whitlam- free University education! No HECS and no fees. Oh yes- free healthcare… and public school funding.

Can you do both? Put a deposit on an IP and also go oveseas? Friends of mine are big fans of Vietnam and it’s one of the cheapest places to go. I reckon I wanna go there too- and soon!

I just got back from overseas- my first ever time. And I did it thanks to a CG in RE! I reckon RE is about living well. Going overseas can be one way of…[Read more]

Funny that Mr Triguboff seems to have changed his mind and his feelings are different to the comments he made in December:

Mr Triguboff stood by his prediction, reported in The Australian, that the buyers of 30 per cent of Sydney units purchased off the plan would default and lose their deposit because they could not get full finance from banks…[Read more]

canneram,

You suffer stress but you love real estate? hehe. Being a RE investor can be soooo stressful! But I knowwhat oyu mean. When me and my ex had properties together, the only thing that we didn’t argue about was our RE- our properties were like our kids- well-behaved ones at that! [thumbsup2]

Canneram, given your situation, it’s really…[Read more]

Remember Craig, that when you are dealing with RE, you are dealing with one person, who is also two people. That is, when we buy we want to buy cheaply and get high rents. But when we sell, we want to sell for as high a price as we can.

Most of us who have sold properties have not sold CF+ properties. On the contrary, many of them have probably…[Read more]

Mel,

Thanks for the mistake pickup :o)) Another mistake I made is that the stats I quoted related to Melbourne and Brisbane- different markets- hehe.

Luckily I’m not Mark Latham- there’s less fallout when I make a mistake than there is when he makes a mistake

Yeah, the new smileys rock. You gonna get yourself an avatar, mel? I quite like being…[Read more]

Thanks sis

I don’t like limits on what I can repay. I like to be able to pay out properties as soon as I can. Means I can buy more etc etc
