    Timber floor problem - advice needed!

    Hi guys, I am building a duplex that is almost finishing, one of the units has polished bamboo floor, but the edges have expanded and the board have curved a little, not too bad but definitely not flat (floor laid about 6 month ago). Spoken to the floor guy, he said it was due to moisture in...

    Thanks to every one's comment and research , 1) I have contacted the builders, and getting some prices together. 2) Lowered the asking price with the agent. Fingers crossed! :)

    Thank you KY, that is very useful information :) I will contact those guys and see what we can come up with. Let's hope my other subdivision in Pooraka can sell much better (Torrents title)

    heheh... I could put a few of those there. What do you guys think little 60sqm 2 br granny/transportable homes someone mentioned about $58K built up? (still waiting for firm quote)

    Need ideas!

    Yes, very good point. When I had those 2 HT semis, I was just thinking about how to maximise those, thus subdivision :) Now those blocks are worth something, just that value I can not use which is annoying. If I build, I can use those as collateral to borrow for other projects as it is going...

    hmmmm Good point... Now I am thinking maybe just build a granny / transportable and just rent it out, say 150k for 2 of those buildings, and rent out for $140 each, and those would be a reasonable return?

    Need ideas!

    Yes, think of doing some 60sqm granny flat style ones, paying about 90k each in Sydney in brick veneer (that's include all drainage stuff) , maybe reduce cost a bit by building clad, any advice from someone local? A new little house would be worth $150k would it not? (as old ones are about...

    Need ideas!

    it's not a matter of price, it's a lack of enquiry :( Did have someone made an offer, I accepted, but the purchaser could not get finance because he wanted to get 100% finance and the bank only wanted to lend 80%.:(

    Tree lopper Sydney

    From memory was about about $1100 last time for a pretty big tree, including stump grinding. Was no drama at all, I was not even there (so never met the guy face to face). I used him a few times now, with the pricing I suppose it really depend on how big the tree was...
