Hi Wirra436
Would you happen to know how your friend secured that lease? Ie through an agent or privately?
It would be very interesting as I've spoken to agents about long leases but they don't seem very interested in getting them - (maybe because shorter leases mean more leasing fees..)...
Hi
I was referring to apartments.
However I do have the option to build the apartments strata titled OR townhouses on seperate titles.
The apartments have a higher profit margin however it could be worth knowing about the townhouse option if it is more realistic!
(were you thinking...
Units
Hi
Thank you for your responses.
I have a block that can be developed into 12 units.
I have a mortgage at 80 Lvr on the land.
The commercial loan with capitalised interest sounds like my option - but can I still do this with 80 lvr on land?
Would the commercial rates be say...
Hi
Can anyone offer information on how construction finance works for building units please?
I have heard you can borrow 60% of the construction costs (which I assume means you need 40% of the construction cost in equity or cash??)
Can you still get compound interest (to pay no interest...
Thank you for your responses. I thought the quote I got was a joke but it seems it wasn't from what you've said!
Interesting idea about flying someone up there..
I'm actually trying to decide whether it's better value to renovate or build a new house.
"Or you could be forced to work till you're 80 to repay the loan of a property which is worth 1/3 of the asking price"
Why do you say it is only worth 1/3 of the price? That is market price for a 3 bedder.
Hi
Does anyone know the cost of installing new boundary fencing in South Hedland please?
It would be approx 120 metres of fencing.
(do I have to track down the owner of neighbouring properties to get their approval?)
I have had a quote but it was ridiculous so I thought I'd ask here if...
Hi
From what I have found out it seems the front half my land slopes to the street and the back half slopes to the rear - so apparently it wont be such a big deal... (one company suggested to build up the land and another company said building up the land is not possible. so lots of diff...
Hi
I am wondering if anyone has experience with getting finance for building transportable homes and whats involved? What is the LVR?
I have heard that you cant get regular finance for this as the transportable home is built offsite in a factory and because of this there is no value added...
Hi
I recently renovated and used ANTIQUE WHITE USA on walls and ANTIQUE WHITE USA GLOSS on skirting and a CHINA WHITE FEATURE WALL.
USA colour very easy to live with.
CHINA feature wall very subtle. (could probably be slightly darker if wanted.)
I chose these colours to keep it very...
Hi Justin
Why would your company be selling them off?
I've often wondered who is actually buying and selling these pilbara properties. Is it companies selling them all off?

Thanks for your help Rockstar. Does this drainage issue also apply if I were to just build a single house on the land? I'm wondering whether it might be easier to go down that path if this duplex drainage gets out of hand!
Regards
Have had shower and bath sprayed white.
Hi
I have had my old tiles resprayed white in shower and bath. It looks great at first but it does not last. Chips and scratches appear shortly after its done revealing the old colour which then looks like you have permanent mould in the shower! You...
Hi
I have a block of land that I would like to build a duplex on. It slopes slightly to the side and possibly gently away from the street.
I have been talking to project builders to arrange site inspections however I have hit a snag already!
It seems that drainage of storm water has...
Land
Also I was wondering if you are able to get feedback from a project builder like Masterton on what is possible to put on a block of land BEFORE you purchase it. Has anyone done this before?
Land
Thanks for the info rockstar. I have found a few sites already that seem suitable. I read on another post that employing a project builder is far cheaper than building with an architect.
I am going to go to Homeworld in Kellyville soon to have a look at what is available. Even though...
Hi everyone
I have just joined the site and have read through many of the passed threads about building duplexes however, I thought it would be an idea to start a new thread about building a duplex from scratch for the beginner so I can clearly understand the steps involved.
I am at the...
