Sent you an email Fed, but basically, 3 BI bedroom, $148,000 rent $200-220 p/w located in Narrabri NSWCheers

How does one list a property with them? Being an owner seller I am trying to advertise my cashflow positive house in as many places as possible for as little as possible expense!TIA

Yes, look at Singleton Heights or The retreat or hunterview (all in Singleton)

Singleton used to be reasonably priced, not any more due to mines and being a mining town. Rents are very high though for same reason. That being said I personally would expect Singleton to crash soon, not only because of the recent flood, but because mines are opening up more out near Narrabri and there was a heap of mine job losses recently. I…[Read more]

Not too experienced, But yes the water is probably an issue right now, that coupled with the fact Toowoomba had it's 'boom' about 2 years ago.We recently sold our house there for 20K less than market value, was not impressed but had to sell in a hurry. Rentals are rather easy to come by, ours was a nice spacious brick 4 bedroom and rented for $240…[Read more]

just thought i'd add a link to the house that has rent to buy interest (also has another family viewing this weekend, so hopefully they will make an offer anyway) any idea on a better way to market it even! It is on ebay, oztion, and some owner sellers sites, this is just my personal webspace to get more photo's and descriptions on it. http://membe…[Read more]

Did the seller do the reno's? If so, obviously they did them to re-sell at a profit, what they paid 7 months ago has n othing to do with sale price today. 1 Man had the nerve to ask me what I was willing to accept for my 148K property 'seeing as though I only paid 110K for it' I thought that was extrememly rude as we bought it over 5 years ago and…[Read more]

Well I called the real estate and she was fine with letting us out of the agreement. 10 Minutes after I faxed off my letter I got a conditional offer on the house!!!! The buyer is sending a holding deposit today because I said I wouldn't commit to his offer if he might change his mind when another party is also very interested as he won't be…[Read more]

My husband was still in QLD and I was in NSW, he did know we had the house on the market, but I doubt he would have agreed to give them exclusivety again and for that long

Thanks,I might give them a call tomorrow and tell them that I want to cancel and take it off the market with REA's for 6 months and if I can't sell it by myself in that time I will re-sign with them, do you think they would go for that? Maybe if they know it's not going to another agent they may be O.K with itWhat about the fact my husband hadn't…[Read more]

Thanks Marc,Yes we have had proper valuations done, one was 2 months ago when we were looking at refinancing to access the equity, and then again just a week ago as we sold one of 3 houses tied into the one loan.Now if we could just sell one of the others, preferably the one near warwick (would actually prefer to keep the Narrabri one because the…[Read more]

I thought the law was only if you were going to make current tenants (the ones breaking their lease) continue to pay rent until a new tenant is found. If you are willing to let them out of their lease then I think it is a different story….someone correct me if i'm wrong.

Thanks for the quick Reply Debbie,I think i'll give the QLD agent a ring and make sure he hasn't lost my number…lol…that property is in Warwick, so an 8 hr drive from here….yuck! I guess I worry that with so many houses, how much attention is mine REALLY getting from the selling agent. Like my one in Narrabri is listed at 148K and is one of…[Read more]

I would just assume she fibbed so as not to be discriminated against, chances are she is also a model but makes most of her money dancing, dancing, modelling, she could have said either.The fact is she will likely be working nights, not partying all night long and likely earns a great income which to me says a big yes! Nothing worse than tenants…[Read more]

We are currently in a rental and won't be buying here most likely unless the prices do drop drastically , our other house is also for sale and not in a good rental area because it's a 10 minute drive out of town and no-one wants to travel 10 minutes with fuel the way it is

So you mean, why not sell it at a higher price?The price we have it listed at is very close to a bank valuation we had done 2 months ago, would hate for a buyer to come along and get finance knocked back because it didn't value in.

Speaking from experience….I would leave it……We bought our house on what others classed as a busy street (I didn't think it was busy at all) and although the house was great, the street put people off when renting and also when we sold although we did still get $240p/w for it, had it been on a quiet street it probably would have gotten…[Read more]

O.K so don't know if i'm even working out the %pa correctly, the way I worked it was the house price ($148K our asking price)  then I worked out 6% of that which works out at  $8880pa which is $170 per week rent and we were getting $180, hopefully soon to be $200. Is that right? Or do I need to add in rates, insurances etc…..because if i'm go…[Read more]
