Bank Valuation figure - Reality typically higher or lower upon sale? I understand every situation is different and this is a generalisation, but looking for some feedback on what your experiences with bank valuations, in relation to what your property actually sells for. In my experience...

Now.., this may appear to be the world's most dumbest question but we're thinking of hopping off the Renovation scene after 13 houses and renting for a while, before buying again. If a property to rent states 'No Pets', then obviously every animal or living thing not a human is a pet, I...

Would like some opinions please... :) Is anyone doing the "renter/investor" thing? Comments please. The following debate is a good indication for me (and a enjoyable read), of the polarity of opinions on the subject...

I've been wondering how long it will take before this house gets enveloped by mother nature. This one's in Frankston East and surrounded by not-too-bad houses, but this one...!!!:eek::eek: Renovators Delight!! :D

Am moving house but have been told by Optus (who we've been happy with), that we can't get the same phone/internet bundle at the new address. They suggested Southern Cross Telco. Anyone using them? Opinions please? Thanks. :)

Just wondering out loud and would like opinions please. :) Our fully renovated and unique house sold within 2 days of listing a month or so ago (3 out of 5 inspections put in an offer for it), yet still is being used as 'bait' advertising on RE.com.au, and up to a couple of weeks ago, paid...

This is taken as part of another thread, yet I thought I'd start it's own, for I'd really like to know what everyone thinks about these new window displays. I personally loathe these new LCD agency displays, for there's no way I'm standing there waiting for the listings to scroll through, and...

Some of my pet hates regarding Real estate Agent Lingo like Cosy, cute and quaint. The reality is small and undesirable. What about the overused 'Nestled'? There's gotta be a better word surely?! Suitable for first home buyers, investors etc... - I'm neither of these and might still buy...

Interested to get feedback on what 'thank-you gift' an agent has given you on buying or selling through their agency, upon settlement. :) There's been rare times we've received nothing. Most commonly a gift hamper of some type. This house we have now - bought and sold (Same time, same...

Am I the only one getting really annoyed/frustrated with realestate.com.au, with the slow speed of their searches due to flashy adverts etc...? :mad: Is there any way I can disable these annoying @#%^ ads and just get to the results, without all that unnecessary garbage that slows up the...

After dealings with dozens, upon dozens, upon dozens (a hell of a lot), of RE agents over the years, I had come to the conclusion they are all pretty much worthless, in varying degrees, and strictly in it for themselves at any cost. I have finally found two agents, in Langwarrin/Frankston...

Does anyone else wish Realestate.com.au would have a search feature to display properties with two bathrooms/ensuite, instead of having to trawl through all those places with only one? Seems like an obvious inclusion to me. Also, to be able to define the area in which you wish to buy would be...

I'm looking for opinions please. Have the opportunity to purchase a large, immaculately kept older house in a great spot, for an exceptional price, with great landscaping. The downside, it has asbestos based cladding, and interior wall sheeting which may or may not be asbestos. All in...

Interested in your thoughts please.... When buying an investment property, do you think: 1) If I wouldn't live in it, then I wouldn't expect others to. Don't buy it. or 2) Strictly, how much money it can make me. Buy it anyway regardless of how crappy it is. Thanks! :)
