    Moora……..beware the flood waters

    Hello All

    I have to agree with procrastenator. Last year or the one before that, I forget, Moora had two major floods wich devistated the town within about 4 months of each other. Now with the hospital not being upgraded I would not recomend buying up there. I found it funny that the local police had…[Read more]

    Hello

    Isnt there some webpage or office that you can ring to find out the date a property was last sold and for how much. I remember reading about it once, this would make a great research tool. Does anybody know the place I am talking about and how to contact them?

    WA is lovely though. Investing in Mandurah and around there could be very good though, it’s going to be awesome, they are building a train line finished in 2007 and it will take 48minutes to perth – it also has lots more going for it, like the top regional area for employment, fast growing, etc etc

    Hello Xenia

    Following on from S.I.S. Robert also sells kids and adult board games that teach people how to invest and make money. I have never played these games but have heard they are good. They are a little on the expensive side at around $100-$300 but thats not much really for a good head start. I dont have his web address in front of me…[Read more]

  • strw23 replied to the topic Settlement problems – need advice ! in the forum Hotch Potch 20 years, 3 months ago

    Hello All

    Depending on the vendor you need to be very carefull when writing subject to finance. If that is all you have written and you get knocked back before settlement is due I think the vendor has the right to make you continue looking for finance with other lending companies until the due date. It is better to write subject to finance from…[Read more]

    If the +cf from you ip on top of your pension took you over the tax free threshold then yes you would have to pay tax on it. In regards to your other question I think you can only get back as much tax as what you have paid out, and after that amount you get back tax credits. If you dont pay any tax at all at the moment you must be careful…[Read more]

    Hey Peterp

    That east/west thing is generally right with the exception of Mt Tarccola and Seascapes(a new suburb), which are on the east side of the highway. As for Geraldton in regard to growth i know it had seemed to be pretty stagnent to the point of going backwards before I left with a lot of shops empty.

    Hello M Spec

    I think it depends on what strategy your using as to wether you want to use io or p+i.

    When positive gearing you may find it better to use p+i because over time your repayments will get lower and thus increasing your positive return. After 25 years you will get to own the property but the downside to this is over time you decrease…[Read more]

    Hello Allan

    As far as I know that is OK. I emailed the people from my local FHOG department about a year ago to find out how long you had to stay in a property for to be eligible and they basically told me that it didnt matter how long you were in there for as long as it was within the first year. This fact you should double check with your local…[Read more]
