I know a bathroom guy who asks every customer that calls where they got him from. He records it and each yr works out which ads are working and how much they generate in sales. Turns out the yellow pages hardcopy is his major source, so he upped the ads and it upped his money. He has done this 3...

hey cheechee shot him another one thanks.

hey cheechee, never got a reply from rod so not sure whats going on. I would still like a Pro membership if anyone has one going for Qld.

Hey Rod, I'll give it a go. I tried the trial for a week and liked it so sent you an email. Chris

Hey Mooze, I pullout kitchens for a living (hence BKR - Brisbane Kitchen Removals) and when I get the odd good one I put it on ebay. Other then that, theres the Trading Post and The Courier Mails Weekend Shopper. You usually see a few kitchens in them each week. If your going to pull it out...

Hey Cleedus, Not exactly sure what your saying but I will give it a try. If you trying to slide the building onto the boundary line then it won't work. Buildings within 900mm must be fire resisting on the side closest to the boundary(eg masonary, from what I remember of the BCA rules). Also...

I feel your pain Random, got 52k in ccs along with other stuff. I subdivided using them as the last $ needed and thought it would be a quick sale. House on front, land at back, both on market. Ended up renting the house and the land finally goes thru this Fri but its been 6mths! If you told...

I stripped out a 32m2 unit 2yrs ago at Kangaroo Point for a guy. He had trouble getting finance because of the size and used his existing house as security. Paid $170k on 5th floor with great views over the storey bridge, it was just up the road from the pub. He spent 30k renoing and a year...

I've done alot of kitchen ripouts from deceased estates and in most cases its the new owner that organises skip bins and dumps everything themselves, otherwise there are rubbish collectors in the local paper who would do it. Only seen a few ppl get them but I guess if your far away then get...

Thanks Darryl, bookmarked and will test later in the week. Always wondered what its costing me when the kids leave everything on in the house:rolleyes:

We used to have 2 when I was in the PS at the airport, run by the social club. No one ever complained and the bosses had the keys. If chips, drink or money didn't work you saw them and they fixed it straight away. It all worked great. Not sure how much money it made, would have been alot, but...

thats awesome, thanks heaps. Its going to be my new map source for sure. I can even see myself, car and trailer in a photo when I was renoing. Its fast and has a great zoom, plus the option of 4 pics to get a time lapse happening. Should be great to see developments in a target area.

I would make sure its him before approaching or its going to be very ackward if its not and your going out with his daughter. Anyway to check his computer? If not how about setting him up alittle. Maybe let it slip in casual conversation that teamplayer x said this... or you heard...
