    In regards to James Street if its the full acre I would be expecting close to a mil. We did a unit site on the same street and off the top of my head we were getting around $320k+ for 2 bed units so there would be some money to made even if you got it at a mil.

    How things change and the importance of setting goals.

    Haha no way, what a crack up! Didn't think Forbes would be such an unreliable source. But yeah you get what I'm saying, it's just about focus and having the end goal in mind, that's what I think is key? How Many of you have your goals written down and are achieving them?

    How things change and the importance of setting goals.

    I was just looking back over some of my first posts and how different my strategy has changed from then. I'm also glad I got some experience under my belt before commenting on too many threads as my views have completely changed. I think this firmly establishes the fact that GOALS and...

    H&L investment experiences

    ej89 is on the money here. If you do the figures on the H&L and they work out then what's so bad about them? We don't do H&L as such but I packaged up a block and turn key house for a client last week and I am seriously considering buying the block 2 doors down and doing the same because...

    East vs West Melb % Growth

    You're not wrong, people would have thought you were mad buying in there 10 years ago but what a buy it would have been. We had a tiny unit in the not so good area opposite Oasis which we got rid of in Jan because the place need a complete make over externally but body corp wasn't up for it...

    East vs West Melb % Growth

    Haha Y-man, had this conversation with a client yesterday, there are parts of it that I wouldn't be game to walk around but up near the private hospital (I think it's Outlook Dr) and the area north of lyndale are actually really nice. Good freeway access with big blocks.

    I live by the first rule you mention but I think you have used it in the wrong context here. When was the last time you went out to the area? Have a read on the Cardinia website and also http://www.mpa.vic.gov.au plenty of good things going on. Cardinia council has just built new officers...

    Where to buy first investment property

    Have a read through some of the interviews on here, see what people have done and try to get some sort of end goal in mind.
