I have it in my library.

It’s going to depend on the scope of the works, and how urgently you need it done. The bigger the scope, and the higher the urgency, the bigger the cost. In respect to the legals, I would have thought circa $1000, less if you package it up with the conveyancing.

Hey Donnie,

Yes, this will be a problem unless you are the owner. A builder would be my trade of choice.

I think the best way forward is to get the owner’s permission to do what you want to do once the property is unconditional. This is usually agreed as a special condition, but I would visit a lawyer to see if (and how) it can still be done…[Read more]

I noted today that the company, Folio Property Pty Ltd, is being ‘struck off’ the ASIC company register. I recommend everyone who lent them money get legal advice asap.

Hi Adrian,

His website is http://www.clinicmastery.com

I can unreservedly recommend Daniel.

Sure. Trading is when you buy with an intention to sell. Investing is when you buy with the intention of holding. That’s not to say you won’t sell, but rather you are not buying with the intention of fixing then selling in a short or medium time frame.

G’day Ryan.

1/ If you purchase real estate with the intention of trading it then your profits are captured as ‘ordinary income’, rather than ‘capital gains income’. So if you buy a property with the aim of sub-dividing it and selling it, and you make a $100,000 in 15 months, then even though it is > 12 months, given your intention when purchasing…[Read more]

G’day team, and especially Clyde.

Clyde – I’m coming late into the discussion here, but am I right in believing you own two properties with negative equity and negative cashflow?

If so, are you in a position to absorb the loss of selling either (or both) of them? Or are you no longer able to afford the cost of owning the properties and can’t…[Read more]

Unfortunately, I have received mixed feedback from those who have made loan enquiries with them. I am currently reviewing and reconsidering whether I continue to refer people to them.

Hi Ben,

It’s not how many properties you own that matters, rather the financial consequences of owning them.

1, 2, 5, 10, 100… it’s just a number.

What’s more important, at least the way I roll, is the cash flow you derive, and therefore the freedom from work obtained, that is key.

I’m not on the same page with your thinking about the…[Read more]

I agree with Ben in principle, but in practice I think it is a moot point.

Experience shows that different people want different things out of life, and for some, following an investment pathway similar to what I describe in my books, etc. just isn’t of interest – at that time or circumstance in life, or at all.
