    How would you fix this floor plan?

    What is the property worth at the moment? Will you add more than $25K, preferably $50K+ by renovating it? Is this your PPOR or an investment property? How is the house positioned on the block and what size is the land? What is the solar orientation? Asking these questions because you...

    Gone guarantor for family business finance, can I borrow for investment?

    Hi everyone, this is my first post. Hope I don't sound as ignorant as I feel! We have guaranteed a loan for the family business. (Yes, I know this is not a good idea:eek:) My husband and I are each liable for $2million if we should ever be called upon. The bank holds the title to our...
