    material behind kitchen tiles- not asbestos cement sheet is it??

    I Laid (watched) Carpet in some units, and Andersons stated the backing under old lino (or the before lino mat that lino is laid upon) was absestos filled. As per painter's comment. Always treat it as Absestos. No turning back once that enters your lungs!

    strange sprinkler hose under house

    Just be sure its not a reticulation termite system? They look similar to a sprinkler and requires a nozzle to be attached to pump chemical into. Just a thought, you should put pictures up so we can see and be more accurate.

    ANZ Bank: Standard Variable Mortgate Rate Rises 39 Basis Points To 7.80%

    Are they price fixing, seems the banks all follow each other into the same price category...Seems to me like there's not much competition, couldn't one of the big four maintain and then use that as a PR advantage over other banks or do they all play follow the leader...

    how IP managers find new tenants?

    I've had horrible experiences with PM. But some great ones too. Some are just young and lazy. Others are wiser and have been in the game. I wanted to rent a house, i had a brand new job and needed to move to Toowoomba. I had two weeks to find a house, cash bond, great references and was a...

    of a hQuestions on bank taking possession of a home

    Seems very interesting. I have not heard of that happening. There would be lots of legalities involved and i assume that there would be a large loophole enabling people to sell a repo under value and on the down low..

    IP, Redbank Plains QLD or Smithfield SA

    The west moreton valley from Redbank to Gatton is an area that is getting very expensive. I am not even sure what is driving the growth. Perhaps maybe the two lane highway and ease of access into ipswich for work while having a country lifestyle. But new four bed brick homes sell for 270k in...
