    I almost bought a property from Landmark Investment last year.

    I pulled out of the deal when I found that the property was worth less than purchase price from local real estate agents.

    I would be EXTREMELY careful about purchasing any property through a marketing companies. Think about it, you are paying for heir overheads, their sales staff, and so on.

    I believe that the best deals are the one that you research and find yourself, not the ones sold to you through a marketing company.

    My experience has taught me that if you are not prepared to do your own research, you shouldn’t invest.

    Whatever you do, be careful.

    Happy investing[:)]

    Pretty much what Car Lover said – marketing companies always charge to sell properties, and i’ll guarantee you 9.5 times out of 10 the marketers fee will be tacked straight onto the price of the property – and then some…

    In the property I bought between Brisbane and Gold Coast in 1994 (two tier marketed big time!!), we paid $112K, and the ‘agent’ or company that signed us up was paid $10K.

    That’s the sort of commission that I recently paid on a $390K selling price.

    Cheers
    Mel
