For landline call quality is generally a lot better, (particularly for business grade VOIP / HD voice) and more comfortable for longer conversations. When at home would always use landline over mobile, not too mention risk of frying your brain. Even if the jury is out on health risks...

I'll be there. Looking forward to the crab stick schnitzel - :D

Land with multi-unit development potential in Doncaster East (750sqm+ blocks) has grown 4-5 times over the last 10 years. Significant growth, and I don't think the same is to be expected in next 10 years? You'll find plenty of the these cases if you dig up the data...

I don't know of any commission details. They claim to have over 6500 clients and are underwritten by Allianz. They target real state agencies directly rather than end customers in marketing. They claim to pay out regardless if tenant is on periodic or fixed lease which is a pitfall for many...

Has anyone had experience with this company - Landlord Protection & Collection? compared to the main ones regularly mentioned here. http://www.landlordprotection.com.au/ http://www.landlordprotection.com.au/landlord-insurance/ They can offer building as well through Alliance. I...

Actually the current bill is $500 for 12 months, and that is with the light busted - currently hasn't been working for a while. People don't report these things. Nothing else requires common power. It seems one stick light at front only. Energy efficient globe is one option, but it is...

I am helping out my body corporate on a block of 4 x 2 bedder single storey villas in Melbourne. Currently there is a common electricity meter and maybe one or two common driveway lights being used. The yearly electricity bill is $800-$1000 - don't have the exact figure but it is heck of a...

Count me in troops.

These knock down things were selling for 650k just three years ago. Thats good growth. There must be plenty of wannabee and real developers swarming this area. They can't all make a decent profit that's for sure - as you can only get two places on that size block - typically from what I have seen.

Oscar, how much did you pay for your apartment? What will it rent for? and what is the yearly body corporate like?

How can there be all these kit builder / supply companies but very few real case studies (actual builds other than high rises) in the inner suburbs of the main city? Traditional builds seems to be the stable rule of thumb. Are they mostly built in regional centres and on farms?

The levels of fees you must pay and control you don't have i.e only certain property manager can be used at a non negotiable higher rate, plus audit fee and this / that and other make it much worse than your average body corporate deal which is at least transparent without hidden kick backs and...

Going to UNI is a brain bend / stretch like many experiences in life. For people that don't go - statistically the odds are stacked against you (from average earning capacity purely) - however you can still do well either well. Those that I know that are still drifting didn't go to UNI, but...

A good property manager that works for them-self on your behalf will treat your home as though it is theirs. Rarely the case if they work for a big mob as a salary earner with a factory approach to everything.

If it is such a brilliant business your supplier and the marketers pushing people to buy into them would be buying into it themselves. There would be no need to continue to market these. Soon if you're out of cash you'll be paying through your smartphone rather than looking for an ATM. The...

Any agent that works with you to secure an outstanding deal is a friend in anyones books, and if the seller knew what was going on then there would be no more friendship there.

Pretty crazy act, however its a PR stunt amongst many to buy some more votes when you're losing too many.

Villas in Ringwood tanked in prices 2-3 years ago. This recent rise is just a correction from that - not a sudden growth without justification. This surge is just a re-balance and trickle from what is occurring in Doncaster East / Donvale / Mitcham / Blackburn etc. At the bottom of the dip...

Punt road needs total dedicated bus lanes right into Lonsdale street or wherever the buses terminate. Then you will have a swift journey from Eastern freeway to city and often more pleasant than a severely overloaded train. Buses are comparable to trains if they don't get stuck in grid lock.

The median in Doncaster has gone through the absolute roof in the last 7 years even without a train line. It is predominantly a double garage multiple car family place. There is excellent park and ride options, 10 minutes to Box Hill train and buses to city on freeway are quite fast and will be...
