Hi everyone, I know this has been discussed before, but the most recent thread I could find went back to 2007, so I thought I'd start a new one cos I'm sure those are out-dated by now. In a nutshell, which company would you all recommend? My property is a strata property, so I need contents...

Oh that's fantastic! thanks so very much

Thanks so much - what is the proper paperwork and where do we get it? also, how do we check legitimate ownership/access?

Hi there, I'm not sure if I should be posting this here, and I apologize if this is the wrong forum for it, but I'm really needing some advice on the possible dangers and pitfalls of renting privately? My son has applied for no less than 15 properties, but because it's just him and another...

between $360K and $420K. The one I'm looking at is right smack in the middle - $385K

I actually did do a search for depreication but nothing came up for some reason. Perhaps I mistyped and didn't realise

Thank you everyone! I'll definitely get a report done

Hello everyone. I have an oldish property in WA. Not sure exactly what year it was built, but it would have to be about 15-20 years old. The property is a unit in a development of seven. Some people say it's too old to bother with a depreciation report while others say it isn't. Which is it? I...

Thanks everyone for your replies! I'd completely forgotten about reward points, so yep probably will keep on paying by CC. Booo to surcharge fees

Hi there everyone...I'm wondering what's the best way to manage non-IP related bills. I use my credit card to pay for everything so that I can keep the balance in my offset account as high as possible, but some companies charge a surcharge for paying by credit card. The surcharge is usually...

Hi there...yes I pay it off every month. Oh, I see what you mean. Hmmm. it's a toughie because that means my balance in the offset account dips and that would mean I'm paying interest on a higher amount of loan. Sorry, am just not very good with this kind of calculations. Would really appreciate...
