    Hi

    I have just made the decision to buy an IP. I have been doing some research and have come across the company called Capital360. I found them in the latest copy of Your Investment Property.

    http://www.capital360.com.au

    I arrange a meeting a met with their Director Pino Tedesco. He was very helpful and professional. This company is a bit different to any I have found to date. They take you through the whole buying process from strategy development to property mgt. They then manage your portfolio as you go along helping you buy more property’s to build your portfolio.

    Has anybody used them or the like. Their testimonials were very impressive.

    Appreciate any advise given

    It may just be a complete co-incidence, but at one stage 'Pino Tedesco' was the Director for the Sydney Metropole Office…

    try googling his name, i did and there were lots of links, i didn't readthe expanded posts. If i am unsure of  a person or company, I will often google their name with the word 'scam' and see what, if anything, comes up.

    cheers

    I've been speaking with Bryce Holdaway from Capital360 in Melbourne…

    The Key players (Pino,Bryce,James) in capital360 has worked for Metropole in the past. Now they run capital360 with same strategy as Metropole.

    Because of this I'm bit confused…should I use Metropole or Capital360…Obviously capital360 is cheaper than metropole

    One more question – did you engage Capital360 or someone else?

    I also saw them – interestingly I was unimpressed. Maybe cos it was the Sydney team

    I wouldn’t go to them because they are cheaper. I’m happy to pay my consultants, I want the best around me. I’m inclined to go with metropole because they are proven and have got “grey hair”

    Please let us know how you get on

    Charles1 –

    IMHO

    depends on what and how you want to achieve your wealth..

    I found Metropole has their blinkers on all the time as they only suggest to invest in

    – proven suburbs (5 KMS from CBD)…
    – Hold for few years (minimum 5)

    definitely they've Grey hair and Michael has lots of proven experience but after paying top $$$$ you don't even get chance to talk with Michael when creating your strategy…

    These are my thoughts after reviewing around 20 buyers agencies in last 2 months…. For sure Michael comes on Top if you want to let them do all the thinking…

    Thanks for your feedback.

    You are clearly entitled to your opinion. I just find it interesting that the 3 posts you have made are all plugs for Capital 360.
    Of course it could just be pure coincidence or maybe you work for them.

    How about sharing your “unbiased” research with us – who were the other 20 companies you researched and what were the pros and cons.

    I’m interested. I only saw 3 Sydney buyers agents and Metropole came out on top (and you are right I didn’t see Michael – but i didn’t expect to – just like I wouldn’t see John McGrath personally – but I’d use his company to sell my home because of their proven track record)

    I haven’t signed up yet so please share your thoughts..

    Why would I be here if I'm working for Capital360 ? just to clear your thoughts about my biased opinion about capital360 – I'm self employed IT Consultant

    Just name a few Buyers Agents I Spoke,

    – Wakelin
    – JPP Buyers agent
    – Advantage property consulting
    – VIP Astute Buyers Advocates
    – Ramsay
    – Buyers Solutions
    -Christoper and Moran

    They all have expertise in Melbourne, but my plan is to go nationally with a ONE STOP SHOP company. Due to this Capital360 and Metropole are still in my list to be considered others not.

    My strategy is not to sit for 5-7 years…I'm thinking more on find a Problem (crappy property), Create a Fix (reno) and sell it in 1-2 years

    Some Good reading – https://www.propertyinvesting.com/forums/community/heads-up/4324615

    I'm highly impressed with Steve McKnight's thinking but pity I don't have time to run around and find problems and fix it.

    I got meeting with Metropole's Eddie @ 11 today, let's see how we go :)

    I'm talking to them too (Pino and Bryce from Capital 360) but also will talk to Jason from Alliance Corp as well this week.

    Alliance Corp is much cheaper but they only focus in Melbourne.  Anyone heard of them?

    I was approached by Capital360 Director Pino Tedesco to work for them and had the opportunity to meet their team. Very professional and competent.

    My experience with Capital 360 is that they over promise and under deliver.  Buyers agent at best (negotiation and research skills were poor and didn't deliver on their '8 step process').  Do your own research and keep your team independent of each other is my advice.  ie., don't have an Accountant, mortgage broker or property manager either in house or who is getting kick backs from each other.

    Hi all … I'm new to this forum and have had meetings with Capital360 re SMSF.  Any updates on experience or success/failures with this group would be very much appreciated.

    Hi Applemelb, I'm curious .. did you decide to go ahead with Capital360?  Have you had any success?  I am currently thinking of using them for my smsf .. or maybe just leave my super in my superfund.  Any feedback would be appreciated.
