In this case, would you let the RE agent beforehand that you are planning this arrangement (only investors)? Is there good reasons as to whether you would or not to tell the RE agent.

I live in a small strata complex of townhouses and mine is free-standing. The carpets are old and I am looking to put in wood or bamboo flooring instead (checked to make sure the sound proofing meets regulations) I am fairly comfortable with the strata side of things - getting owners...

If the solicitor has not flagged finance until now, time to organize finance and change the solicitor

Bubblensqueak, Very similar boat and went through the process recently. Ideally, you could have gone to a solicitor that was used by a friend/colleague so you have some idea what to expect rather than googling it. But hey we kinda learn as we go along and now that you have gone through...

Reading MsAli's feedback makes me a bit nervous about settlement if St George will come to the party. I have decided to do my own FHOG paperwork and submit it tomorrow to OSR tomorrow morning. It might take a few days to come through, but atleast I will have the satisfaction of doing this...

I did tick the box for St georges to be the approved agent. I called up OSR and it looks like they (STG) have not even forwarded the application to OSR even though settle ment is on tuesday :(

Heya Forumers, Need some advice. My first property (PPoR) is coming up for settlement on tuesday and everything was going well (and so I thought) We had exchanged contracts mid september and my mortgage broker advised me that the FHOG application has been submitted no problems. In...

Hi Guys, I bought my first PPoR as a strata villa in the hills and will be moving in shortly, all excited. I want to understand what are the insurances people generally have? I understand from the strata docs that they will take care of the building insurance, but as a PPoR, what are the...

I know. By putting 'reasonable' they have left it to interpretation. I would think atleast 24 hours is reasonable at the bare minimum. By not giving any notice, it also means they dont care for the presentability of the property they are showing prospective tenants through. May be the...
