Will be talking to mortgage broker for next one.Probably paid a bit too much for our first IP (and maybe for second) but thats life  –  probably $15K all up so in grand scheme of things not a killer.

The owners started out using a booking agent and web site for first couple of years and then nearly all the visitors were repeat customers who direct booked, so they ended up dropping out of the agent and booking services as they ended up with more than they could let to through these return…[Read more]
