Hi everyone, Please help I'm confused. If I sign a contract to purchase property that has subject to B&P, finance etc clauses and have paid 5% deposit, what happens if say I cannot obtain finance or building inspection is not acceptable? Do I get any or all of the deposit back?

I have a 5yo golden retriever and I agree Nemo I wouldn't rent to me either. My golden has dug up the garden, ripped up the grass, destroyed the irrigation and destroyed the back door and one window frame trying to get in the house when we were out because of a storm :mad: I definitely...

Let me know how you go with getting your discount JWR, I might give it a try too.

:( I just renewed mine with them. But will keep in mind as I am hoping to buy in next couple of weeks. Thanks Tess85.

As far as I know there is no one else really interested at the moment. It is still listed at $309K until this weekend when they relist at offers above $279K so I probably need to act before then.

Thank you all for your suggestions. I was thinking maybe around $270K so it gives me the confidence to do so, maybe I will try $268K as $250K maybe a bit low seen I don't want to go unconditional. The PM has told me they are very motivated because of divorce settlement.

Hi everyone, I am currently looking at putting an offer on a unit. It is listed for $309K but the RE said they will look at offers over $279K now. I believe through my own research it has a value of approx. $285K, however I would like to pay below value. Do you think it is wise to offer below...

Thanks Rixter. Sounds like exactly what I need to listen right now, can't wait!

I am currently looking at buying in Whyalla. RE agents I have spoken to seem to think that rents will increase quite a lot in the coming 12 months. Does anyone have an opinion on whether a cheap duplex/house or a newish (under 5 years old) 3-4 bed/2 bath would be the best investment?

Hi, is there anyone out there that can recommend a good property manager in Whyalla please?

Like others I too had trouble deleting my saved properties, but I just tried again and guess what?? it works! Hopefully realestate.com sorts all the other problems out too.

Thanks Cherry Pro and Alplant I think that is a good idea since we have up to 55 days interest free on our credit card that is the best way to go. I'd rather have the money on the mortgage a bit longer. Cheers

There's no maximum amount for repairs option on the authority form, but I suppose I can always add to it. Thanks.

Thanks to those that replied for your input, I appreciate it. Another question - is it best to ask them to notify you each time maintenance is required before they go ahead with organising contractors? I realise that for emergencies they may need to go ahead without my consent, buy for non...

I am currently signing up with PM for my first IP and have questions about the "Authority to Act as and Agent" form which I need to specify what I give authority for them to do. What do others here get PM to do on their behalf i.e. pay bills such as services and rates, processing insurance...
