    Land Tax overhaul (SA)

    That was my initial thought as well. I have just moved into a new PPOR and payed around $23k Stamp duty. Would not be happy if I all of a sudden have to pay a yearly tax on top of it without some form of rebate from the tax I have literally just paid. I agree with the above posts about its...

    PM expectations, PM fails to have tenant sign lease, tenant now asking for discount

    I manage my own rentals and learn't this very lesson the hard way. I accepted an application, the tenants verbally agreed on a start date, I removed the advert as I was still receiving quite a few phone calls. I sent off the rental contract to be signed and then waited... after 2 days I figured...

    Evaporative Cooling

    Have to throw my support behind the evap units as well. Make sure you have a large enough unit and plenty of ways for the air to escape and they are more than adequate. You should only get humidity problems if there is insufficient air flow out of the house.

    Landcruiser Prado or a Freddy Kluger...?

    I'm assuming you are either going to be towing or going off road? otherwise why the expence of a 4x4 trunk when a larger station wagon would be better suited to city driving.

    mould in bathroom tenants threatening to complain

    Is it due to poor cleaning on their behalf? Or is there a lack of exaust fan etc? If you have a working exaust fan installed and there was no mould previously and I would have thought that the tennants are resposible for the mould and should scrub it themselves. If it existed prior how...

    Renting in Adelaide info please

    Suburbs around Semaphore sound like what you are after. 20min by train to city. On the beach. Or for a bit more money Grange or Glenelg. Both have direct train or Tram to the city and are on the beach.

    Would you spend more money on your IPs (water-saving devices, etc)to save the planet?

    I can see the merits of a large rainwater tank in the country. But as for capital cities, would the extra power you use powering the pump needed get water pressure from your rainwater tank counteract the environmental benifits of using a few less litres of water? unless the pump is running...
