I agree – teachers deserve every cent they get.

The other side to holidays – do kids have the attention span to attend school for longer periods?

Isn’t eveyone suffering burn-out by the time school holidays role along.

How long are politicians on holidays for and are their salaries comparable???

I think the price guides in the Sunday papers are there to make the PPOR owners feel good about how much their homes have increased in value.

They have little use as an investment tool but gives you a warm feeling inside to think how much your home has gone up in value.

My apologies if I offended anyone.

This was sent to me by a NZ ex-pat, who received it from their sister in NZ. When I commented on the tackiness, I was told the NZers have a great ability to laugh at themselves.

I presume that is what yoda is referring to when he/she mentions the ‘templates’.

Silly me []

I have that & use it regularly – I was automatically assuming books.

Thanks

I got all my templates from Steve’s “Buyer Beware” (https://www.propertyinvesting.com/resources/1.html) which I would highly recommend.

Not only does it have templates but lots of useful advice.

I find the trick is to be very organised and have a great accountant.

I keep all my paperwork in separate folders with a different folder for each property.

Each month the property manager sends me a statement of all transactions – these get enetered into an Excel spreadsheet and immediately filed.

Bank statements are the same.

The paperwork takes me about an hour each month and I actually enjoy it because it gives me a chance to reflect on what I have acheived.

Cheers,

Shushar

Is there another?

I think every investing strategy should be diverse and be tailored to an individual’s situation and goals.

Investing in +ve cashflow property may not suit everybody because although the yield is good there may be little capital growth. Sometimes you need the capital growth to enable you to get the deposit for the next purchase.

If you feel comfortable with what you are doing – have done your due diligence etc, then why not?

I agree with Richmond

but have you ever thought of trying a library?

May I suggest you discuss your insurance policies with an insurance broker who would have a better understanding of the range of products out there, rather than talking to a bank who have a vested interest in selling you their product? (I appreciate that insurance brokers also have an interest but at least they have a wide range of products)

From the other side of the fence…

I’m tired of my ex trying to hide all his income so he reduces his support.

Just because you split, shouldn’t mean that your financial responsibilities end.

I would have thought a profit is a profit is a profit.

As you said, the property has been a good little earner for many years.

The cost to now sell and try and find a “better” investment wouldn’t seem worth it to me.

Many on this forum are screaming for anything that is cashflow +ve. I think $600 is worth it.

Now there’s a great idea I had forgotten about.

Thanks – I think I should phone my solicitor now!

Thanks for the info.

I’ve noticed that the publication date is 2002. Do you find that most of the info is still relevant?

Thanks,

I think the form 221D has been renamed.

If it is the capital allowances schedule, the URL from the ATO is http://www.ato.gov.au/content/downloads/NAT4089-03.pdf
