still waiting....

Im sure there are many other suburbs that are not hilly and dont have views but have done well. None come to mind at the moment, but safe to say, I reckon Huskisson, it must be in the way its been planned and marketed thats made it desirable, because it simply does not have the long stretch of...

Hi KnightM, DId you bring this post to devo76 attention? We have spectators buildiong up LOL

Hi LarryC... Was reading your posts... Im 34yo and we have arguably eerily similar investments, including in Wallan. I built in 2006.... and i too have felt, and continue to feel it was a bad (innocent decision as i was young and guided by another for their personal gain) decision to buy...

Hi Womble66, Thanks for your views. Theres shops on Emmett st Callala Bay that has an IGA, but the single servo on Quay rd callala beach doesnt operate. You are right about the lack of services holding the area back, but i reckon one day (within the next 15 years or so), there will be a...

I think its only a matter of time.... For example Huskisson is not that hilly, has no long stretch of white beach, but the way it has been planned and marketed, has made it what it is. Its only a matter of time that Callala Beach achieves what it deserves, and wil kick start other aspects...

Hi devo76 It was interesting to read your older post, pretty much from SEVEN years ago........... Now that that period has passed, how do you see what you wrote from 7 years ago, compared to what occurred in reality? Are we still waiting the Sydney money to flow to Jervis Bay?

Thanks Allgood, I hear what you say. I just don't understand why it is not more popular as a travellers hot spot, the natural beauty, the beach, the white sand, are arguably one of the best on the east coast..... im hoping that this aspect of the area will be uncovered/ marketed in years to...

Hi Frito, Thanks for your insight. I purchased in Callala beach back in 2011, the property is on a large block 1 street back from the beach so it meets the criteria for a decent holiday home in turns of positioning. I have rented it out for $270pw, which is possibly less than market as its...

Hi devo76, Whats your view of Callala Beach as an investment. Do you see its popularity as a holiday destination increasing with the Princes highway being upgraded? Do you see Sydney (and Canberra?) dollars flowing there and increasing prices as baby boomers retire and want a Holiday House, or...

Interesting to read this, having spent some time away from the forum. I have a property at Callala, this is the link (of a few) that I posted in 2012........... its good to see the 2 way highway will eventually be all the way including berry bypass...

Hi Brazen, Thankyou for your priceless contribution and guidance. I have been thinking about your last post over the past few days. The lady at council had said s94 and a (s64?) for a 2 bedder would be $15k - $20k, i wouldnt put it out there as gospel though. If shoalhaven council allows 70m...

HI Brazen & Ideo, Yes exactly to both of you. Im happy to pay the s94 at the time of conversion. In a way, as Ideo puts it, im staggering having to pay the s94. Brazen, what are the main things i need to bear in mind re "design/site, orient" for future BCA......... im thinking in terms of...

Hi Tobe, valid point you make, which i had earlier considered. The property meets every criteria (size, parking, setbacks) for dual occ. My strong view is if the 2nd structure already exists, and its a paper shuffle to class it as a dual occ, and the council purse benefits with a fat s94...

Thanks for the responses so far. The council is Shoalhaven Council and the term used by them is detached habitable. Im not interested in relatives accomodation, which does not exist in this council, (anyways the 50m square area with that is too restrictive for my long term plans)...

I wanted to know if people on the forum have any experience in detached habitables? From speaking with the council, it is a seperate building/ room which you can build in the backyard (obviously you would have to meet criteria (size, parking, set backs etc etc etc), which cannot be lived in...

Thanks nWW, i will make enquiries with those companies. much appreciated.

HI, Does anyone know of any house relocaters to move from Central coast NSW to South Coast NSW near Nowra? There seems to be not much in NSW, a lot in Victoria and Qld though.

Thank you handyandy!! Westminster, thanks for your suggestion, however not keen on safety glass. Wanting to keep original windows unless i have no option.

Yep, il call those guys to replace the track, then get new rollers to marry up with that track... il post on here how i go.
