Being a serial investor I use RE.com.au a lot, but imo the changes to their search results is terrible. There's no pattern anymore but just an influx of different sized listings, pictures and colours. I've had a talk to a couple of agents lately who have both said they hate the new design and...

Lads, hoping to get some advice. I'm going to Sydney for 4 nights with my partner mid April and have not booked a hotel yet. Ideally we want to stay central in the CBD - Closer to the main Pitt St shopping area, and then equal walk to Opera House, Oxford St, Darling. Budget for 4 nights is up to...

I have 2 x Split Air Cons that I need to install in Pennington ASAP. Having a couple of difficulties finding someone and already had 2 recommendations say they are too banked up. Can anyone else please suggest someone who they know of or have worked with before and are well priced? Needing to...

I got a double in Pennington which I need to get a cheap Air Con system put into. Can anyone recommend a good source where I could pick up 2 split systems? I have a guy that can do the installation.

Hoping if anyone can give any recommendations on good lenders that will still loan a decent amount of the property is on a Moiety title? There is a $300k property I like, but alas the dreaded word.

Are there groups which anyone can be a part of where it has a listing of new companies/franchises that you can invest a certain portion of your money into the start up of - which would then give you a certain share of the business? Coming up with the idea because Adelaide is looking for someone...

It's a little old but I know they are still looking: WORLD famous American ice cream brand Ben and Jerry's is finally coming to Adelaide and intends to open a shop in Rundle St early next year. Ben and Jerry's is searching for a franchisee willing to invest up to $450,000 in an Adelaide store...

Just curious to see what percentage of people on here have interest only loans on their PPOR. I think we would have a different mindset to non investors who would mostly be on Principal & Interest. I'm currently renting but have big problems with where I am ATM however struggling to find another...

So I'm a renter despite owning 2 properties. I've just realised that it's been exactly 18 months since I have been unhappily living in my current location and been looking for elsewhere to move into. There has only been 1 property which would have been my ideal house but sadly I did not get it...

I am hoping I can get some recommendations for a great accountant in Adelaide - Highly educated in small business, company business, property and e-commerce taxes. It's imperative they are significantly knowledgeable in all the above and don't just refer to the ATO website or a book. If anyone...

Would anyone like to review the RE-design/style of my online store and give any feedback? I always have the problem where when I look at something for so long all I can see are the faults, so might be good for a new perspective. I've used tinyurl because I would prefer the web address not...

I will admit I like this show. Not so much a fan now that Channel 9 has it. Seems very budget now. But the millionaire guy on there came in today and turns out he made his money from investing. So related to this forum. Here is his article in a recent property investment mag.

A friend of mine was telling me about how he has recently changed over to Property Insurance Plus (PI Plus) for his Building/Contents Insurance. Website http://pi-plus.com.au/. Through his lead, I also contacted them and they have been very helpful and prompt in providing quotes for me which...

Hey lads, so soon to have my first property investments. The only thing I need to finalise is my building insurance. What I am buying is side-by-side maisonettes each bought for $136k each. I have received a quote through my credit union for insurance (same people I got my loan with) which...

Would be interested to hear about any non-property investment items which you might own - maybe a gold nugget, the Codex Leicester, or Winchester Model 1892. I'm looking for some cool things to buy so might give me some ideas. Not crazily valuable, but I have a Beatles card from 1964 which...

Just about to purchase 2 IP's (Adelaide) and neither have any type of cooling/heating. It's a poorish suburb and people don't expect much. My friends family lives in the area and find that a lot of residents own just these hideously larger portable AC's or otherwise window/through-the-wall AC'S...

Hoping I could get some financial advice. I actually want to put an offer in TODAY because the properties I am looking at are going to sell very quickly and I want to be one of the first to get in. The thing is though I do not have any of my finances sorted yet and this will also be my first...

I've just come back from an inspection of a investment property which I am very keen on. The only negative I can see is there are large gaps in between the floor boards (throughout the entire house - 6 rooms). I would say the worst are at around 1cm. The property is in a poor suburb and...

There is a large property coming up for sale soon (in Adelaide) which I am very intrigued with. The main house has 6 bedrooms, possibly a 7th and out the back there is a granny flat with 2 more bedrooms. So 8-9 bedrooms in total. Is it ridiculous to you think you would get that many tenants...

So today it was approved that Westfields Marion (In Adelaide) is going to start charging to use their carpark. For non-radelaidians, Marion is our biggest shopping center. Can something like this can increase the value of an investment property around the area? I guess in particular being able...
