    Hi Mike,

    That was a really good post. I am yet to take the big jump and this website can be really informative and interesting for a newbie…you just have to be aware of what to ask and what not to ask (and fair enough too).

    For someone like me, you have demonstrated that there are possibilities at the smaller end of the spectrum, relevant to the little fish.

    I love reading the posts of the more successful investors (nothing against your achievements of course) but that was a good little inspiration boost.

    Thanks and I hope Tamtam got something out of it too!

    Sorry for the mix up, that is what I thought. Bit of a coincidence and prob lucky your name isn’t the other way around by the sounds of this article!!

    I have the opposite problem, I have carried out a fair bit of research but have no money to get me started. The benefit is having done 6 months reading/researching/visiting this forum I am starting to gain an understanding of what is achievable and that has helped me focus on what I want. Now, I earn about 20k less than you a year and am determined for this to work and confident that I can do it, so I am sure you will have no probs provided you are sensible about your actions.

    Just don’t jump into anything without researching and don’t rely on just one person as a source of info…eg that guy you mentioned.

    Sometimes I remember the phase “you need money to make money” and think how true it is. But at the end of the day I try not to get disheartened. I have taken on a second job and am working towards reducing my debt so I can save the necessary deposit.That’s is the action I am taking. In your case your action could be to research to give you a broader knowledge base to provide the confidence you need to put your hard earned savings to work. Try the librarys, I have found most of the different people mentioned on this site have books for loan, and it’s free yay!!
    I don’t know if I make any sense…it sounded better in my head [laughing]

    Hi,

    I don’t know about the average price of one bedroom houses in your area, or how common they are but I just read in the current issue of Australian Property Investor Magazine that the average house price for Warrnambool for 12 mths to March 2004 was $224,000 with annual sales of 387, or $175,000 for units (113).

    I don’t know if that helps you in any way???

    Hi all,

    I am new into this like Chris! Just wanted to say that all the replies and info that you guys give are very interesting and helpful (of course I take it all with a grain of salt and don’t intend to limit my research to just one area…advice already received from this site!!).

    I also wanted to ask who has bought the “Buyer Beware” pack? Is it worth the money? I found Steve’s book incredibly interesting, however as I delve more and more into researching the topic I realise that at every turn there is a new book or video or something to buy. If it is genuinely worthy of a read I will purchase it, otherwise I figure the money could go towards my first property!

    All buying research material and no purchasing real estate is not going to make money…if you know what I mean?!!
