The campervan sounds ok if there is a few of you travelling. I’m travelling alone, so it would be a waste I think. Also be mindful that there are certain roads where campervans aren’t suitable (?). I can’t confirm this however on the large travel map I have, these roads are clearly listed.

Scrim = wooden wall where wall paper is placed over.
Gib = similar to plaster board.
Crib (south island) & Bach (north island) = small holiday house

Oh, and Dairy, which is a milkbar [biggrin]

Hi Julian,

Thanks for the reply. I got a quote from Rent a Dent, it’s reasonable. I am in the process of organising everything this week. Can’t wait

Hi twinpeaks,

Sorry I can’t help out with an answer to your debt recovery question, but I have something else to ask you. You mention that the property is a “student rental property”. Does this mean that it is located on campus or something like that? Why can’t you rent it out to non-students? I’m sure there is a reason, one which you have probably thought about. I’m just curious…

Regards,
Ozi

Sorry, could I hi-jack this thread and ask of those people who have purchased in NZ previously, if they are no longer buying in NZ, why that is?

I think it would be good to hear stories from both parties.

Cheers

Not if you are a NZ resident. Us Aussies still have to pay CGT if we sell, unless you have some creative structure setup (I think).

council rates can be as low as $600 p/a.

… and also as high as $1600 in some areas!

Can I ask what the “new 11 second solution” is? Or is this a secret only for seminar attendees?

Hey Mini,

If you do decide to bring out your own Kiwi investor magazine, put me down as your first subscriber [biggrin]

Thanks muppet,

I managed to trace some back issues on the site you suggested, but couldn’t find all of the editions I was after. I’ll keep an eye out.

Hi FireCaesar,

Rental yield = (weekly rent * 52) / purchase prize x 100

Eg: Rent = $100 p/w
Purchase price = $50,000

Yield = (100 x 52) / 50000 x 100 = 10.4%

Ozi

Thanks Glenn,

I think you have to be the only person I’ve come across who is happy with their Brother printer I’ve had one before and wasn’t too happy with it… i don’t think i’ll get one again. Thanks anyway.

Anyone else have any opinions?

I’d say yes, everyone can be rich! Sure, the money circulates in the community, but it’s what the people do with the money that counts. If they put the money to good use, i.e. invest and make the money work for them, then they on their way to financial freedom… however if they blow it on useless luxuries, then their hard earned cash goes to someone else… and so the cycle begins again.

It does make you wonder though… is there enough money around for “everyone” to be rich?

Simon,

Can you give us more info on the PO loans soon to come out? How do the lenders make money if they aren’t charging you interest? Surely there has got to be a catch (large on-going fees, etc…)?

Hi Salla,

I too am going to NZ in January. I’ve hear that January is generally a quiet time in NZ, wit a lot of people going on holidays etc… i guess this could be a good thing and a bad thing for us.
