I’ve noticed some such sites provide plenty of information, while others don’t. Might be worth a try.

Welcome to this great site for Property Investment knowledge exchange.

I do believe that a select few lawyers make good money. However, I also believe that a select few Property Investors make good money as well. And it will probably be a more long term investment as well as it being easier, in terms of academic years, people…[Read more]

I’ll go and check up on my credit rating and have a look.

I make around $600 net per week. I’m 27. No negative credit rating possibilities that I can think of. I did lose a library book in 97. However, I did move a lot, and I did get refused multiple times trying to get a credit card… hmmm… so Terryw…[Read more]

Malaysia is trying to get into the ‘free trade economy’ <— I’m not very sure what you call it.

Think how China doesn’t have a proper currency exchange with Australia… well Malaysia is thinking of doing that because they believe their currency is 20% under value. If they succeed, the Ringgit, is expected to rise.

Many people get burnt for blindly trusting experts to take care of their finances. You can get their advice and expertise, but ALWAYS do your own due diligence as well. Just so know know the ins and outs of the game, and how it affects you.

I heard quite a lot about compound interest saving. Which kinda savings account would that be akin to within the banks? What would you guys recommend in that situation?

you be a little disappointed (and maybe mad at yourself), because Peter told us his secret to becoming a multi-millionaire..

honestly he was a great speaker, and land banking which he talks about is great, but also where he thinks interest rates could be heading..(is very interesting)

If anyone has ever tried it, we’d like to hear your comments on it.

Btw, anyone here know who Rich Dad really is? In fact, does anyone know who Mike is? Robert Kiyosaki mentions going to seminars with Mike sometimes… that’s his friend whos father is Rich Dad.

I’ve gone and read through them.

So technically, I can use my FHOG and get a house/unit and live in there with my girlfriend for 12 months. Then use her FHOG and get another place, then move there together, and rent out the initial house/unit that I bought.

So long as we applied for the FHOG as individuals,…[Read more]

And looks like you need a sponsor and go to a meeting first. I might give it a look. Anyone want to sponsor me?

Could I possibly talk to this friend of yours? As I am very new in the RE scene, I really need all the help I can get.

Maybe I can send him a nice e-mail and see if he is interested to give me some advice.

Thanks for that Alistair Perry

I did find it before reading the post, but thank you very much all the same. :)

Btw, we do not need to be a licensed RE Agent to be subletting right? I thought I better find that out first. However, haven’t seen it being stated anywhere as yet.

I’d like to encourage you to continue to sponge up all the information you can about property investing. Take all the information you gather, sit down and do some thinking.

I guess I will have to pop down to some RE agencies and have a bit of a chit chat.

I do know that the agreement will be under my name, but then when I rent out to my tenants, we will have an agreement sorted out too. Kinda like a wrap, but in a rent situation.
