Hi guys TLDR - if a lease has been made by an old owner, 2+2, can the new owner refuse the option to extend, or does the leasee have the right to 4 years if they wanted it? I'm looking at purchasing a commercial building currently occupied by a government department in Victoria you...

Noone? D: Feel free to comment, even if you think the plans are terrible (well, especially so) eg - I think 2 fountains is a bit too much, maybe have a nice tree as the centrepiece of the lollipop driveway

Hi guys I'm looking to extend our PPOR and were wondering what the somersoft collective think about our ideas We live on a 2.5 acre block with most of the property to the north of the house. There is a beautiful pond/dam I have built to the north east which ideally we would like to be able...

I think a much smarter idea instead of investing x hundred thousand dollars into acreage in middle of nowhere "just in case"... invest several thousand dollars in guns, ammunition, camo gear, night vision goggles.. have a buried cache including tinned food supplies and petrol... scout out...

Hey peeps I am after some general advice Interested in a property that is being subdivided by what appears to be an amateur developer. Original ~5 acre property bought by a "company" (registered to the next door neighbours) 2+ years ago, this "developer" is subdividing the estate into five...

Yes I just rang the bank and they are both cross collateralised loans (both loans secured against both properties). What problems would I run into with this loan structure? My ex-accountant set this structure up to be 'tax efficient' in their words.. but I assume I would run into problems with...

The breakdown is a little more complicated than that we have $230k cash in an offset account linked to PPOR mortgage (of $230k) and an investment property mortgage of $952k... I don't really understand how given the property is only worth $730.. lol. I think it must be secured against both...

Hey peeps Didn't know where else to post I'm just wanting some advice as to what the somersoft collective thinks I should do. As a bit of background - I'm 29 and so is my wife. Our after tax monthly income is ~15000 (me) and ~2800 (her), combined ~18,000 (we currently don't negative...

its a ridiculous situation that I was in myself a few months back. Went to westpac (who I banked with for >2 years at this time), talked to their mortgage broker "You want a mortgage with us? Sure! No problem, heres a pre approval" "Uh... can I get an approval up to a certain amount?" "No, it...

I bought in coburg through NA recently... I thought they did a fairly poor job for the vendors (bought property >10k below reserve, agent seemed more interested in just 'getting the deal done' than getting a good price for vendor.. good for me) and a fairly poor job for us afterwards (very hard...

10% is crazy. I recently landscaped my front yard (extensively), had to pull out 3 trees, including various previously thought extinct flora (and some fauna) All in all cost ~$3k (plants, trees and 2 skips, [my] labour 'free' Most important thing if you do it yourself is to get the...
