I am just buying it now, thanks for the reminder :) Jaycee - thanks for your reply. I will need to save a deposit first. Thanks Comper, I think the next step is to get Jan's book whilst committing to saving.

When I read back over this statement, I'm not so sure. What do others think? My concern with having a place we live in ourselves is that we move constantly and might get little notice to do so. However then I see $1000 a month in rent being payed.

Thanks Mick,

Hello all, I am looking for ideas for where to start. I have been reading a lot over the past few months here on SS and want to make a start :) but I don't know where to do that. My situation is that I work full time, mid twenties, don't own any property, have a cheap car that I share...

Ozeperp, you couldn't issue a breach notice if they only had 'a big cat toy', wouldn't you need to see the cat itself? :p Although, it does seem highly unlikely one would mind a cat toy for a friend. :)

Hi Nathan, I am keen to read your story but not having much luck with your website (if that's where it is), can you please point me in the right direction? Thanks :)

Greyhounds caged in a garage? What the? That makes no sense at all.

Hi, I've just read this article - Troops head north amid housing crisis fears http://www.townsvillebulletin.com.au/article/2009/11/04/91351_defence.html As the other half of a DF member, trying to find housing each time we move is challenging. We either live in a defence house or try and...

I'd keep living at home! If you get on with your folks alright, why move out? You will have all the expenses of moving and getting everything connected too. I would have never left home, much to my parents disgust, if I could have worked from where they live but they are rural. However our...

Thanks everyone for your responses. Will be browsing r/e.com tonight for Everton Park and Keperra How does one start? Just start going to open houses to get a feel for the whole process and see what's out there? Urban Cowboy - PM sent, many thanks!

Thank you both for your reply. :) I will definately look over the tracks and at Keperra. Coming from Sydney I found it quite amazing when we arrived and found you could buy a house 6kms from the city for $400k! VB "Then ask more questions!!" - thanks, just don't want to be a pest and feel...

Anyone? I like the look of this however out of budget. http://www.realestate.com.au/cgi-bin/rsearch?a=o&id=105983738&f=0&p=10&t=res&ty=&fmt=&header=&cc=&c=76629681&s=qld&snf=rbs&tm=1253224609

Hi all, I am looking to buying a house in the area I currently live - Mitchelton, Gaythorne or Enoggera. This would be my first home and to be honest I know very very little about the process, what to look for etc so hoping that some kind Somersoftian could point me in the right direction...

Re the discussion a few pages back on selling in 2003, it reminded me that my folks sold a two bedroom flat in 2003 at the beach end of Dee Why Pde, with two of the smallest bedrooms ever, eg one you would not have fitted a double bed in and the second you could have just, for $750k :eek...

Thanks all, I am trying to figure out if they live in the soil or if they hatch on the ground then climb up the leaf folliage. Not sure if it is worth digging up the soil patch next to our courtyard or not. Tourist, did you apply that to your dog or in your yard?
