Sorry buddy the forum is not for that. There are very strong guidelines on advertising and I suggest you have another ready of the policy so you are clear on what you can do.

But just a tip, you can post a tag letting people know that you have identified properties and then people can PM you if they are interested.

Feel free to contact me…[Read more]

Hi Holly

Welcome to the forum. Unfortunately looking for good cfp’s is indeed harder, but the web site is actually the hardest way to find them.

Everytime I go and inspect my properties or am in town doing a reno or the like I also find another property, it happened this weekend unfortunately with my move interstate coming up I can’t do the reno…[Read more]

I think Bec and Pelican are actually married! Who else would go on at each other like they do!

I had that same thought, but think that maybe we have both replied to another one of a similar nature in teh same forum room, and also had read this post a couple of days ago and they seem to be mixed up now!!!!!!!!!!![upsidedown]

Hi Jesseelstak

Welcome to the forum.

I second your thoughts, however the forum is still part of the real world and is therefore made up of many different types of people with different beliefs providing the wide a varied group that we have here.

On the forum you will find there are a few particular people that really like a good bitey debate…[Read more]

I suggested that the following two options might be getting in over one’s head:

ii) 100% vendor finance. If the vendor will lend you the money, you may not need a deposit
iii) 30% vendor finance. Bank lends 70%, vendor 30

That is looking at both of those option in a one dimensional view. Just becasue they are called “vendor finance”…[Read more]

Now you’ve got me!

Good point Chans

Just because you are not putting any money into the deal doesn’t mean there is no deposit or that the deal is overyour head.

Hi George

It was great to see you up on stage discussing your deal, I hope you got a lot out of that session as most investor would never get the opportunity for that same type of brainstorming session.

I hope you keep up posted about how it goes.

Hi Craig

OK stick with me here I need to keep readingover your post so I can remember it all.

First, welcome to the forum.

A general answer to your post is, “most” people on this forum invest for cashflow not capital gains. Whilst we haven’t got a problem earning both but first and foremost the cash is the goal.

Yes it is hard to find them but…[Read more]

If you are ready to invest … and I am “assuming” that you aren’t … it is worth buying, otherwise hold your money.

If you do a search on the forum you will find this question is asked a lot and you get a lot of feedback about it.

Good luck
Leigh K

Well done P Guru

Big effort!

Yes I was. Actually my husband and I were! Along with a number of MAP participants that did Q&A sessions for everyone.

It was a great day, long hard work, but great fun, met great people and EVEN learnt something.

It was especially surprising to see areas covered that I know Steve hasn’t done before. With the introduction of new technology…[Read more]

Could I please remind everyone that this is still advertising and as such is not allowed on teh forum.

Could you imagine what would start to happen if anyone and everyone could post for spotters … blah!

Why not just put a decent offer in, that will carry more weight than your cheque that they know you have to cough up anyway.

Does it make you more genuine to give a cheque up front, no, if you are being genuine.

I think that strategy is probably better in a hot booming market like we had late last year. Hold your money and fax your offer to the…[Read more]

You have been advised before about advertising … please refrain.

You are of course welcome to put a small tag line on your posts.
