    Would you riot if your country was up the *****?

    So how is the massive EU loan going to help solve the core problem, then? The rich people, like the doctors, will keep evading tax, and the poor people will be slugged.

    Are credit conditions easing?

    I was really, and I mean really, surprised at how easily I got a loan from Suncorp.

    Where to best find comprehensive location data?

    Where is the best place to find comprehensive data on a specific location? What I'm after is price statistics for the past 10 to 20+ years. I paid $70 for an APM suburb report for Lakemba, and it was pretty much a complete waste of money, showing only the past 24 months and with few charts or...

    HELP! :) new to investing, not sure what to invest my 25K into, any ideas?

    Temporary Walls

    I'm currently looking at turning a 1-bed apartment into a 1-bed + study. I basically want to demolish the bench that separates the lounge from the kitchen, making it a lounge/dining eat-in kitchen. I can then use the rest of the lounge as a study, but I'd like it properly cordoned off with a...

    Is anyone buying now?!

    Considering this is a forum primarily for property buyers, and the last option is largely a "no", I'd read it as being a bit skewed against buying. But it's good to see a lot of people still looking to buy.

    Is anyone buying now?!

    I know there are similar threads to this already, but they're theoretical and I'm more interested in knowing who's actually out there hunting at the moment. Me personally, I am a FHB and looking to get something in the next 2-3 months.

    Strange drop in price (and bedroom no.)

    I'm looking at buying a one-bedroom apartment at the moment, and was able to get a Residex report on it. Bizarrely, it is listed by Residex as a 2-bedroom apartment. Not only that, but from 2004 to its last sale date in 2008, its price dropped from $375K down to $275K. What's going on...
