    Denial/Fear - Property Market Rising

    +1 on that. I had some valuations on three properties scattered throughout metro Adelaide come back recently that were well down from what they were 2 years ago.

    Carpet cleaning - what is the best method for badly soiled carpet?

    I have found steam cleaning to be a waste of time in such circumstances. I think steam cleaning basically sanitises it, but does not clean it. I'd be looking at a carpet shampoo-er if I were you. We have one primarily to clean up pooch messes, but it's also been used at a student apartment...

    Daimien Patterson's free property investor course?

    Given that Bitdefender labels the site as a malware host, I think I won't go through that link...

    Sagging ceiling

    If it's the battens/joists, then I'd say your options are quite limited. You can't re-attach the ceiling if the supporting members are giving way. This isn't making a lot of sense to me. Are you talking about a raking ceiling or cathedral roof? It's not clear what the cause of the sagging...

    dangerous tree outside IP on council land

    A while back I was concerned about termites lodging in a tree on council land. I was told by the pest inspector that he could/would not treat the tree on the basis it was on council land. Personally I have found that if you flag things such as 'high risk to XXXX' (especially public safety)...

    My daughter was at the receiving end of a racist attack

    That's a really hard one. Firstly, by sticking up her middle finger, psychologically she probably feels better in her own skin in terms of standing up for herself. This should not be understated as emotional trauma can be quite destructive. However, by providing an aggressive (and...

    Property on fire before settlement

    I'm no legal beagle, but I don't see why what happens on another title should affect the title you are purchasing?

    Illegal to raise rent because of pets?

    This is very peculiar. I think Consumer and Business Affairs told me once verbally that in SA a pet bond does not exist - you can't actually ask for a pet bond. I think you should contact Consumer and Business Affairs and ask directly.

    This could be the worst thing the US have done in living memory

    Yes they are! :) http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/like/190805682573?lpid=87 Personally though I prefer circumaurual closed headphones. ;)

    Addictive game - Dr Meth

    What I have taken away from this thread is that I'm in the wrong investment area. :cool::cool:

    City Of Campbelltown - South Australia

    Funny you should mention that. Someone suggested to me today that I should consider doing a hammerhead development on my property in Campbelltown. I'm still quite new to all of this, so I don't know how the proposed amendments will affect this. Does anyone have a feel for how sellable...

    Underpinning vs Epoxy Resin Injections

    In my experience, underpinning/injections are generally good only when dealing with subsidence due to bearing failure of the foundation. When used to attempt to remedy distress from reactive soil movements, often the signs of distress will recur as the underpinning does little to halt the...

    Adelaide meeting v2.0

    Looking harder for me to make it. :( I've got an appointment for 4pm to 5pm for work, and a previous social engagement at 8pm. Still a 50/50 for me. :( Would be great to meet Logica in particular, as I'm contemplating my next steps, which may involve a buyers agent.

    City Of Campbelltown - South Australia

    Hey, i'm within 400 m of lower north east road... therefore couldn't I potentially now drop a subdivided block size to 300sqm? :)

    City Of Campbelltown - South Australia

    Whoops, I misread that. I bought in 2011, long before this came out. I'm in Cam/6, trying to figure out right now what that means... I was hoping to hold for 1.5 to 2 years before going down the subdivision route.

    City Of Campbelltown - South Australia

    Bugger, I bought a week or two before this draft came out. Looks like I have to call the council.

    Adelaide meeting v2.0

    I'll try my best to make it. Best case scenario though I'd have to duck out at around 7.30.

    Minecraft

    You definitely would have to draw the line at obsessive behaviour. I played games all through high school and university, but study always came first, and I trained karate 4-5x a week as well. Unfortunately most kids are not able to self regulate. I would really suggest people buy their...

    Minecraft

    My view might be biased, coming from a gamer who has been through the minecraft phase already. The game is like electronic lego. While I wouldn't say it's great for kids to spend 8 hours a day playing it, one does have many fond memories as a child of sitting and playing for countless hours...

    Adelaide meeting v2.0
