Thanks Jon , good advice , l’m in the middle of doing just that – a good broker.
Sorry , lf l appeared frustrated but no l’ve only just found this one . Ofcause there have been others but if we read the forum that’s all through it , seems to go with the territory.
l am always surprised at the hassles allot of even well established investors, 1/2…[Read more]

Thanks for that info guys .l did add a story here about another funny situation l was in but remembered l've already told it  l think so l zapped that one but anyway .Back to the old contracts eh – bugar .lt's just so much messing around early on then costs you if it falls through . Happened a few times .l was sure there were other ways but no su…[Read more]

Thanks for the feedback guysCheers

That's a relief , thanks Tyson.

Thanks Zoe.lt's just the last rates notice that came with the vendors statement.Done plenty of price checking but this one is unusual and it's hard to match it up with anything else on the market there right now. Looks good, until l saw the rates notice valuation. Seemed a bit under .CheersMax

Thanks Terry.Yeah l wondered about that angle and ofcause in this day and age what is basically a simple thing would be tangled up in garbage wouldn't it .l wonder how companies set up that side of things then , they sell shares in a site of some discription all the time don't they.l guess the thing is structured that way from day one .Spose in my…[Read more]

Thanks Terry
Difficult alright , l’ve tried for 3 mths , l only have 2 weeks left .
l think it’s worth atleast 250 but that doesn’t seem to impress the last broker that had it or the banks at all.
l would consider a wrap at this point if there was one around a little cheaper . l just have trouble liking the idea of paying an extra 40 or 50 on top…[Read more]

Na the 4 or 5 could just be the savings from renting instead . [ l think ] .
The rest , l just don’t know enough about yet to work out so at this stage l wouldn’t have a clue to be honest .

Thanks very much for the ideas guys.
We think we could probably get a very nice rental we’d like for 2-250 PW [ bargain hunting that is ] .

As far as any other savings go l definitely have…[Read more]

Here’s a what if , all comments appreciated .
What if – as in my situation , your home property all up could rent out at around 700 PW. , because of other rentals all within the same property and mortgage as well as the house itself. Where as our mortgae is only 300 PW .
We like living on our own place and this one in paticular and are sick of…[Read more]

Thanks very much Terry .
