wow, it's coming along very nicely Rockstar. Which one do you think you'll move into? Or will it be which ever one doesn't sell first?

I think this is the 4th time I've read this thread! Love it! Hi Rockstar, I've read all your threads a few times each, I really enjoy revisiting them to see if there's anything else I can learn. Thanks so much for sharing all your knowledge and experiences. A couple of questions: 1. what...

Is he the guy related to carly crutchfield? I read an interesting blog today called carlycrutchfieldexposed. I think they mention this guy in there too. Worth the read if you're considering any of the courses.

Update Hi Rockstar, thanks for sharing your experiences with us. Do you have an update on this one? I see you've started no.5.

Thanks Sheryn, I've jumped to the Property investing forum. A whole new world. Like I said at the beginning of this thread, I'm new to this world. I'm loving it now though. Thanks for all your help.

Thanks everyone for all your advice and help. Painter, here's the list (small font I know) of the work quoted for by the painter http://www.somersoft.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=53&pictureid=381 Thanks Simon, I agree that newly rendered one doesn't have much of a personality. Its a real...

I agree, I would definitely, go with the same gloss colour on doors, skirts and architraves. I wouldn't recomment a different colour for the doors than what is on the architraves that's for sure.

Well done, that's fantastic. Was the tiling easy? You did the floor tiling too didn't you? I'm starting an 8 week tiling course next week at my local community college as I've always wanted to be able to tile. I'd love to be able to brick lay too :) Great work, and with 4 kids, FANTASTIC.

Hi Painter, Thanks for the welcome and thanks for your professional advice. I have been quoted $9000 for the job by a local painter. I haven't met him, a friend of mine who's a local builder organised it. The quote included removal and replace damaged boards too. Your information was great...

Hi Sheryn, Last night I read a story in Jan Somers book 3. Cheap Rent. I've been caught by the curse. The tenant has lived in the unit for 28 years. I haven't done any work to her unit since I bought it about 9 years ago. The other units have been painted and ex commercial carpet bought at...

Andy, are these strat titled? If not, are you able to borrow 80%LVR on so many units?

Painter, is this your block? If so, are they financed to 80%LVR at residential rates?

Thanks for the info Nathan. Would LOVE to see a video of the spray painting in action if you get around to it this weekend. (Saw your fb status, hope someone takes you up on your offer and you get out there) Thanks again, I'm sure I will be asking you more questions once I decide what to...

Thanks for your thoughts guys. Writing this thread and reading all the other threads on here (I only joined a week ago) has got me thinking. After looking at the sums: Current return on loan amount is 15% Future return if I renovate and hold is 16% (possibly 17%) Here's the detailed...

I spoke to my council (NSW) yesterday about this and they said it was fine as long as there is a drain in the room. This is the way forward that I'm going.

I have a block of 4 x 2 bed flats that I'm looking at doing something with. Here's the details: Current Value: $300k Rent: $27k pa They are right in the middle of town walking distance to everything and if a tenant ever leaves they are only vacant for a week max. I repainted and did a...

Hi Nathan, Well done with the work. A couple of questions with the painting: - What type of gun do you use? - Do you spray the ceilings and walls the same colour? if not, how do you ensure the overspray doesn't get on the white ceiling when doing the walls or vice versa? - how do you...

Hi Sheryn, If you don't mind me asking, what is the profit you are expecting to make on these ones? Would you build like this again or would you test Rockstars latest approach of using kit homes? Love reading your threads. Thanks for sharing
