Great ideas. I'll suggest them to my PM....whom surprisingly I haven't heard from:rolleyes:

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and advice. Wylie, at least now I know that the way I'm doing these bills is the only way - thanks. Great information SeafordSunshine about a reference and their credit rating. I'll email my PM about that and see how we go. Doovalacky, I actually receive...

It would be silly to get that part of the bill sent to them with my name still on it....it would have to be in their name. I don't have an issue with my property in Victoria, so I suspect the tenant there receives that part of the bill with their name on it? My question is, do Urban Utilities...

My tenants (Brisbane) always have to be badgered to pay the water usage and I always have to badger my PM to badger them. I was going to ditch the agent for being slack but then got a new PM who seemed on the ball when I grizzled to her about these tenants. However, I've just realised it's...

I am selling a 4 HA property in Roma, SW QLD which is booming due to mining. The details of the house are on the link at the end of the post. The land can currently be divided into 4 x 1 Ha lots but council is in the process of a new strategic plan, so it has been surmised by the surveyors...

thank you - that is exactly what I was after

I am interested in most states, but probably Queensland, N.S.W, SA and WA the most

I have searched the forums and other web sites but I can't find any historical data for house and unit rental history over the last five years in the capital cities. Plenty about property prices but not rents. Could anyone please tell me where I can find the data, especially if it's free...

Thanks everyone for your advice. Apparently the stains are significant enough to have to replace several rooms and the carpet was of very good quality and in mint condition as it was a PPOR before renting. I suppose that it seems she still may have to wear it? Pictures of all aspects of...

I was wondering if I could get people's opinions on the following: My sister has a rental property in Melbourne and the tenants have been there for three years. When she went to inspect the property, there were significant marks on the carpet in a number of places. One looked like the carpet...

Yeah, I looked at that and basically the ones that are cheaper are older, not renovated and in not in as good a position or are townhouses rather than stand alone houses. The one that is $370 doesn't have off street parking, so it is in the ball park. The question still remains - why the...

I know that they have had 3 opens, got some people through but no applications. The rent seems comparable to other properties I've checked out. The property is in a great location and very neat, so I can't see it being that particular issue. I have other properties where I can understand why it...

I have a 2BR house in Yarraville, Melbourne that needs renting out and apparently has had no interest over the last 3 openings. The current tenants gave a over a months notice and leave next week end. A month should be heaps to rent this house out It is great for a couple, not a family but...

So Pompey, what happened in the end? :) or:mad: or:eek: or:D

I have just been on the buyer's end of delayed settlement due to banks and their solicitor's stuffing up a number of times. The vendors charged me penalty interest and when I finally got a notice of rescission that also cost money. All up I am out of pocket an extra $2500 through no fault of my...
