Ok. (Still learning about valuation terminology).

The valuation was redone and came back at exactly at the purchase price.

Update for anyone interested: Firstly - all resolved and the couple have settled and are moving in. But..it was an interesting series of discussions. It turns out that the valuer was correct. There is not a car space on the title. The car space attached to this particular apartment is...

Huge apologies to NAB. It's not them but ING who are the lenders who sent out the valuer who got it wrong. Update: at lunchtime today, on the advice of their broker who has got precisely no-where with having this valuation amended to include the car space, they have now applied with ANZ.

Gosh - all these names of people that I don't know. Thanks for telling me what valex was. Next one is assessor - is that different from the person who did the valuation? The valuation hasn't been amended yet.

Sydney cbd, Darlinghurst, Surrey Hills, Pyrmont, Potts Point... easy walking distance to cbd.

Thanks for that.

I have some questions about inner Sydney apartments as PPOR. Recent articles suggest that there is a huge quantity coming onto the market and this is taking pressure off buyers. To those in the thick of the market, are you finding that this is true? There certainly seem to be more suitable...

Visit Carrick Hill if they are into history/antiques/afternoon tea. +1 Central Markets. And Perryman's bakery once had the best pasties. (That's pasties, not pastries). Anyone know if the queues still wind around the street?

Excellent posts Emma. Thank you.

Oh no - that's terrible. Can you put a short sentence on your website to distance yourself from the shonky namesake? Especially since you are getting emails about it.
