Thanks Michael! :D

I paid to join up with an online group called Simple Savings to maximise my savings. It's mostly a bunch of housewives (& househusbands) who all share their ideas on savings. The site's appearance is very basic, but it holds a world of ideas that you can adapt to your own situation. Some of...

I went to one Bunnings last weekend. Stood around for 10 minutes and then they organised a one on one impromptu lesson, well Q&A... it was good and bad. No structure, but the man installed kitchens during the week for a living when he didn't work at Bunnings so he was knowledgeable. What I did...

Hi Macca, I thought of that, that's what I'd really prefer. :( It has to be tangible though. LOL I don't think even a share certificate would work. Unfortuately my CFO is really finicky! :mad: I have a fascination with glass, I love Murano Glass, it can be expensive, but it holds...

Hello All :) I am terrible at deciding on what to buy myself at the best of times, now I've got a $500 limit on buying a Five Year Anniversary gift from my employers. WooHoo! :D The rules on spending that $500 is that it has to be something tangible that has lasting value (that comes with...

Thanks! Hi Everyone! Thank you so much for your replies. a) informative & b) useful - which is why I love this community!! I withdrew from the sale. I spoke to the Building inspector after I had read a couple of your replies. He said the asbestos (Hardiplank) was in reasonable condition...

Thanks Hi guys, I agree, I just wasn't sure if it was legal either. I received my first building inspection today and there was a clause saying that it cannot be used by anyone else or given to an agent etc unless previous permission was sought. Thank you all for your input on the matter :)...

Hi Everyone, I am buying ... (trying to) buy my first property. PPOR actually - so I can step forth into the investment world... :D I have made an offer on a house, it's been negotiated and a figure agreed upon - which is a pretty good price, I got my legals, finance, and finally...

Hi Everyone, Quick couple of questions: Can a vendor have Pest and Building Inspections done independently and then supply them in their Contract of Sale? If yes, why don't they? Also, has anyone resold their (current) Pest and Building report back to the vendor of the property if for...

Hi Sanchez, How did you find that sort of information? Is it freely available on the net, or did you purchase several reports over the years? Thanks, Lauren

Hi, Thanks for your help. :)

Hi If I was to buy my first investment property somewhere out in Armidale, Broken Hill, Muswellbrook or Wagga Wagga (any country town) etc. for prices anywhere between $60,000 - $160,000 What basic amount of money do I need to save before I can go ahead to buy. A few of my friends have...

Great Poll Hi A/L, I think this is a great question! I have been "saying" for years that I will buy property, but I never have, I've always managed to accumulate big old bad debt successfully though! :( This year I stopped "saying" and started working towards the goal. :D In thinking...
