Hi,

The discussion seems to be here that wrapping is about selling over priced houses to people who can’t afford it!

From my experience, this is rarely the case and is counter productive for both the investor (who wants cashflow… what good is a vacant house) and also the purchaser.

The key to a successful deal is to pre-qualify the applicant…[Read more]

Hi There!

Thanks for your post and welcome to the forum.

I recently attended yr Sydney seminar fr 0 to 130 properties. I went to learn how to work out positive cash flow properties but being slow in the uptake I am still very confused.

OK – how can I help?

During the seminar we were supposed to check the newspapers for such properties but…[Read more]

Hi,

Not long ago we went to realestate.com.au with an idea to have some basic financial data collected and then formated in a generic PI.com report.

It’s a work in progress but there is plenty more to do to see it come to fruition.

Personaly, I’d like to see more of the ownership costs outlined to help with the number crunching, plus also info…[Read more]

Hi mb,

Thanks for your post and welcome to the forum.

I’ve moved your post as this forum is reserved for questions about the book, not leading on from the book.

Anyway, while I’m here I’ll answer your questions:

Hi,

Just a heads up… to be eligible for the free land you usually have to live in the area for a period of time.

You know when I wrote the book I never would have dreamed it would be the success that it has become.

I’m just delighted that people who have read it have taken something from it and can hopefully translate it to an improvement in their life situation.

Thanks for your feedback. It’s appreciated and improves my day []

Bye,

HI,

Thanks for your post and welcome to the forum.

Er, couldn’t help but give myself a free plug.

The template that I use, together with my theory about how to make successful offers, is contained in the BuyerBeware resource.

It’s available in the Online Shop area (see left hand menu).

As for other discussion… you could always go and knock on the neighbour’s door and ask if they know the…[Read more]

Hi,

I’m not a big advocator of this approach at all. In fact, I think it stinks.

It sounds good in theory, but it relies on putting in low-ball offers that get accepted on (usually) a 1:100+ ratio.

My time is far too important to go putting in a mass of offers with little or no chance of success. Worse stiil, it will burn the relationship you…[Read more]

Hi,

Alister will be working on it next week, plus removing some of the bugs pointed out, plus adding ome of the improvements requested.

Hi,

One of the soon to be released additional features of this site is a system whereby people who know of deals can advertise them within strict guidelines which includes giving an initial outline of the numbers.

This is will be a paid service (something nominal, say $20 per deal) for the person submitting the advertisment. Alternatively…[Read more]

Hi,

The active topics can now be referenced from the LH menu (under forums).

Good idea about the next page idea. I’ll see what I can do.

Thanks for your input.

Hi,

ASIC requires that people running sites that discuss investing in shares to be properly licensed.

As we don’t hold a licence, we can’t accept posts.

Hi Mike,

The new site to be released shortly will have a google search function that can be used on the entire site.

The engine that Snitz uses seems a little clunky, but then again we do have a massive database.

Cheers,

Hi,

Not sure how to fix this.

I use the mouse and then right click copy and then right click in Word and select paste.
