Where did you get the sheets? Wow! That looks great. :) We'd be interested in using that for a bathroom that's going to be nightmare once the tiles come off. It's an old early 60's house down the NSW South Coast and the bathroom walls had horsehair re-inforced plaster. Where did you get...

bump! What would you recommend for resurfacing solutions?

Hi all. Does anyone know if Mend-a-bath is still in business? They did a bathtub for us 9.5 years ago and it needs a fixup under the original 10 yr warranty we had. None of the phone numbers on their website seem to be working. Jireh

Thanks Jacque I just had a chat to the mortgage broker who they're dealing with and sorta found out the limit of what they could borrow. (Yes, I know it's a bit on the edge of ethics, but I suppose we're all working towards finding a common goal) The offer would be borderline on what I'd...

Has anyone sold a property, but first offered it to the long term tenants? I haven't signed a sales agent yet. Are there any gotchas I should think about? For us, the tenants have been there 6 years and the father grew up on the street. The son is interested in buying the property and would...

vaughn...sent you a PM.

Yes...ditto.

Hey all! I'm selling a 3bed/1bath single garage single brick house on 600sqm. It's located 500m from Warilla beach and currently tenanted. I'm asking $330K. Houses on the east side of the highway are rare so this won't last long. The tenant would like to stay, so I'm looking for an...

P&S Michael Yeah. I've bought a few suits, shirts and ties from P&S Michael. They have a slightly different buying criteria and their Italian wear selection is good quality, and classic without being pricey. I go to the Lakemba store and deal with Dean. He may seem like a gravelly-voice...

God, I llurve my cleaner!!! She's a local lady who uses Enjo products to do my place, ie. no chemicals, just water. So I come home on Fridays and there's no smell of anything, yet when I run my hands over surfaces, it's sooooooo nice and clean. Love it, love it. She's a bit more expensive...

Hi all, I'm looking for a bookkeeper/office manager to help 'declutter' all my files, reciepts and IP/bank statements so I can get caught up on taxes. I've been staring at it for too long and just want it organised and done. Arg! :eek: It's a once off, but it would be good to talk to a...

rats! Sigh...just getting back into thinking and doing about investing. Sorry I just missed this. I'd be interested in the next one!

Oh no! How am I going to explain why I need to roll back a 13% rent increase!?!? Mind you, my IP is in a low vacancy area and we bumped it after evicting the previous tenant. At the new rent, we had 30 phone calls, 10 people show up for the Sat inspection and by Tues, 6 applications to choose...

Thanks. Sent you a PM.

Hi all, I'm looking for a decent agent to sell my IP (3bdrm) Does anyone have any good experiences with agents, buying or selling around the Blue Haven/San Remo/Budgewoi/Lake Haven/Gorokan area in the Central Coast NSW? Jireh
