    Hi Jorja,

    I would be happy to have a look at the design for you if you want to draw a mud map of your house and send it to me.

    I have done lots of additions to houses and have been doing design changes for many years.

    Happy to help

    cheers Soapstream

    Hi Alph 109,

    I am from WA where the market has been dominated by brick house construction for years, however I have been using Styrocon now for some 8 years on my reno projects.

    In my opinion it is a brilliant product its quick versatile and has all the fire  and thermal properties required under the new BCA laws.

    The product was originally developed in WA and used extensively back in the 70's and 80's however back then the outer sheeting was asbestos so it went out of the market until some 10 years ago when they developed a new production method of laminating the panels with fibre cement sheets. Its also easy to cut out windows or doors at a later stage as this can be done with a hand saw.

    They are now starting to use it more and more in the West especially on small sites as you only need the one panel for the wall ie you don't need an outer wall and a separate inner wall. So you save on space, time, labour and materials.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards

    Hi Saybalebay,

    I am new to this forum but have been involved in property market for some 20 years buying renovating and selling.

    No doubt you will be on some sort of government pension or assistance if you cant work so you might be able to survive initially on that income.

    In the meantime I would try and find, maybe on this forum a seasoned investor in your area and do a joint venture to increase your capital base.

    The challenge will be finding someone you can work with and trust. If you can find that person and start to turn over properties by buying renovating and selling quickly with you doing the research then you will be on your way in property development.

    Regards
