    Does Brisbane still stack up?

    Didn't we suggest against Park Ridge last week? Like Yarrabilba, it is on a road to the outback. Have you seen a satellite photo of this area? Do you really want to wait 5-10 years for Capital Gain? Other locations will probably get CG straight away.

    Is there a way for landlords to join forces and boycott kmart?

    FL, how long have you lived in Brisbane? This IS Winter. Look outside. Given global warming, I would say winter lasts about 9-12 days. I had my heater on for two hours one morning in May and it probably wont go on again until the two days it gets cold at the start of August. Half way...

    Poor first home buyers Sydney

    So someone here is saying that investors DO bid against FHBs. Is it now OK to do so in the poor outer suburbs of Non Sydney and Non Melbourne, where you would never find a Hipster, not even visiting his grandmother.

    So what did you sacrifice?

    Engagement rings My engagement ring was purchased on the night we settled on our first home in 1980. The price of the house was $228oo. The $800 on the end was very important in those days! After paying the $2280 deposit from my holiday fund and a further $2000 in fees and charges such as...

    Poor first home buyers Sydney

    Even before I read Jerrybee's post above, I wanted to suggest to Hobo-jo that FHBs do not buy median homes. They are poor, not like us investors with our hundreds of thousands of dollars of equity buying up above-median PPORs. I thought they tend to buy below median homes so maybe, just maybe...

    Is it safe to lightly sand asbestos?

    Yeah, I was commenting about the dust and dirt being left lying around on the ground outside. It can blow everywhere and affect everyone. What, the paint flakes? The dirt from the earth?
