Hi everyone, I'm seeking some help with an assignment I am doing for my Property Valuation course. I am looking for a template that I can complete for the field notes(property pro) , just something that I can fill in by hand when I visit the site. The assignment is to conduct a...

Hi Francine, I've had to dye my greys out for the last few years now (Only 31!), and I find that the temporary colours work just fine. If you use these you don't have to touch up the roots which makes colouring easier. I use Country colours or Castings semi permanent colours. They last up...

that brings back memories. I found that it is best to put a clause into the lease stating specifically what you expect the tenants to pay for in regards to the gas. I found that most of our issues where caused by the property managers not providing the tenant with the necessary information...

Hi Miss Muffet. I live in the Gladstone region and have 2 IP's in the area. We note the water meter reading on the condition report when the lease starts. When we get our water notice I work out what they owe and mark that on a copy of the notice to give to the tenant. (with our address...

Hi petal, try using OJON Restorative Hair Treatment. Works wonders for me. Carrots.

Hi Shady, I know that very few houses are actually selling in Yeppoon at the moment. A few specs have dropped in price about $100 000 in the last 6 months and I see they haven't yet sold. Probably would end up a good investment if they decide to build the new port, then the town would see a...

Hi ozperp, this is definately a very interesting story. I have passed this on to my dad because he is very much into our family tree. I'm sure he'll find it a great read. carrots

Hi lily house, We renovated last year and had to remove the floor tiles in the entire kitchen area. My husband used a hammer drill with a chisel bit(apparently you can turn the drill bit off and it just hammers) worked really well although if we were to do a large area again we would...

Just saw the show, and I don't think the new property manager is going to last long - too nice. Carrots

ppor score 2 ip 1 score 2 ip 2 score 42 guess the low score shows there aren't many walkers in boyne island!

Hi Land, We have built twice with a Hotondo builder. Not bad to deal with, and much cheaper than the other builders we looked at (these were for basic spec homes). One thing I will mention though is that we know some people who built with another hotondo builder in the area and she had an...

Sorry Georges, I kind of hijacked your thread for a minute there! In regards to your question, I asked my father (Chartered Accountant) the same question a few years ago about my new build and he referred me to Neil. He said that accountants very often miss the small things which can add...

Hi Neil, Welcom to the forum. It is great to see someone here who I have done business with. Do you currently hold any investment properties? Carrots

Hi Dis, Yes you should definately be expecting more. My parents had a successfull Chartered Accountancy firm for 25 years (have just retired) and my father used to pass his work onto the people that worked under him. There were very little mistakes made because he would sit down and check...
