This will need sanding to scuff the surface get a cheap electric sander and run over the lot.

Holy Cow Batman, I think we may be about to buy our first IP. Last week we viewed a place north of Adelaide that went to auction today. My husband was snooping in the kitchen and 'happened upon' the paperwork that said suggested reserve $180 000. There was only one non vendor bid which was 165000 and it was passed in.

Other cost factors are finishes, eg vinyl wrapped or patterned…[Read more]

What I did was to get a Line of credit loan secured against another property I owne…[Read more]

These people do fit into the category you mentioned "seen it all" mob.These people made no attempt to keep in touch or tell me anything, I had contacted them once and at that time he was vague…[Read more]

Salvo's don't want electric stuff either.Best of luck.

The property sold and the buyer came from the sign.This is the third place I've sold privately, in one…[Read more]

As you mentioned I'm at that point to either terminate the contract or as Scott suggested sue for specific performance. I did not know you could do that  but that is what I would tend toward rather than terminate. I also fear that the market may have slipped back over this period of time possibly more than do…[Read more]
