    Hey aussie

    i’ve found a great way to get the message to the top of the list.
    You can edit your messages. I do this when i see how bad my spelling is.
    Had a beauty last night accidentally referred to “Crashy” as “Crassy”, so i was able to edit it before i started WW3.
    so go back and edit some spelling mistakes and Wacko your back to the…[Read more]

    Housesonly

    Here you go, crashy quoted a completely ridiculous figure a few week ago and you’ve picked it up as some sort of fact.
    “It is logical that because the long term (350 years or more) trend for residential property is to yield a return below 10% and many areas have yielded more than twice that for between 6 and 8 years it is obvious that…[Read more]

    Hi Beancounter
    Yes we are all having the same propblem. Its no longer just a matter of driving into any regional center and choising which property you want. if you want to buy in a town say over 10,000 population in Victoria or SA then i think you may be too late. There were some properties in Tas a few months ago but they are in short supply.…[Read more]

    Hi Mini

    firstly, we expect you to join us in Sept in you know where! (not Byron Bay).
    in answer to your Question.
    Yes i bought into these areas because of the developments. Interestingly i dismissed these areas 4 years earlier because they were economic basket cases. I can’t remember where i heard about Hamilton but it was common knowledge if…[Read more]

  • westan replied to the topic Ugly place… good returns in the forum The Treasure Chest 22 years, 6 months ago

    Hi Soleil

    my thought are similiar to the other guys but one extra comment. you may plan not to sell, but if you need too Ugly houses sell very poorly. At the moment everything is selling well. but 4 yrs ago some of these Ugly houses couldn’t get an offer. What about the future?

    hi crashy
    how are things
    Margin calls are a pain if you havn’t got the financial reserves handy to top up. But as you said working “Deal for free” like an ordinary margin account is a safe way to play it. personally i’d gear up higher than 70%. Just received the mail from them Yesterday so havn’t read it all. But the cash rate plus 1% is heaps…[Read more]

    Wilko
    that is right
    didn’t even know the aboriginals had a property market 350 yrs ago. But then again BHP would have been real cheap

    Hi trisha

    i source my information from everywhere, newspapers, internet, talking to people and agents. With agents i often find they have no idea what is going on in their own cities, they are often focussed on selling houses and thats it. But sometimes they are very switched on and worth there weight in Gold.. I’ve got leads for investing from…[Read more]

    sorry everyone i’ve been dragged back into this

    Chris
    the answer to which book?
    the Bible its the most complete book i’ve ever read, gives me a purpose for living, understanding of life, hope for today and tomorrow and a better understanding of who i am. But best of all it leads me to a God who loves and cares for all of us.

  • westan replied to the topic due dilligence in the forum The Treasure Chest 22 years, 6 months ago

    let me elaborate about economic develpments.
    Today a town in Victoria announced the creation of 50 to 80 new jobs. this town has a population of about 1,500. so it is a major boast for the area. My guess is properties will rise as new people move to the area for work and as locals become more confident of the future?

  • westan replied to the topic Offers to buy? in the forum The Treasure Chest 22 years, 6 months ago

    i agree with the others

    this is poor advise (i don’t think Jenson likes property investors)?

    a favourite Investment quote of mine from Robert Kiyosaki (think there’s another post about him) is

    “the profit is made when you buy not when you sell”

    great advise, i wrote it on a piece of board to remind me of it. i always offer low bought a…[Read more]

    hi trisha

    i think stuart point about demand for that type of house is very important. evenif it’s currenly let doesn’t mean it will easily let again and maybe not even for the same price.
    i spend a lot of time looking at future economic developments in the community. Sometimes i will buy in an area because of the developments eg Hamilton Vic…[Read more]

    alright my last post on the topic also.
    not much point really because no one is going to be bothered reading it but here it is.

    it’s not so much if Rich dad is real etc.
    what gets me is the man appears to be worth nothing, no houses etc until after the rich dad book. (this is according to the article, RK owned only one house in phoenix a very…[Read more]

    But Tony

    if someone says do it this way, this is the way to do it, his is how i’ve done it.
    But they never did it at all i would think twice about following there advice, why do people have to lie if the message is good let the message stand by itself.
    his books are full of stories all now lies, his successful investments are lies, his great…[Read more]

    Hi aussie

    is this a confession

    “or would you just be happy that i got you of your bums to do something??”

    personaly i’m always honest with people and assume they are the same with me. I get disappointed if people lie to me, in future they lack credibility. There is another book that i hold in very high regard and it’s principles work…[Read more]
