Thank you!! After googling I found this today great tool! :) http://www.colourtouch.com.au/

Thank you so much everyone! All fantastic tips that we didn't think of before. I don't know the material used for the windows and etc...i've only been to the house once. Will definitely look into it. Thanks heaps! If we choose to render..what colour would you suggest?

Hi we are planning to get the house revaluated end of this year and wanted to get some ideas of what to do to the exterior of this house. We don't want to spend more than 10k. We have thought about maybe changing the windows (white french?) and getting landscaping...maybe rendering the...

Thanks everyone for the feedback. We have been looking at seaford lately as well for IP. Appears like the ones with a decent land size go quickly. Recently made an offer in avondale heights (for ppor) but was surprised to find out most houses actually go for 20 percent more than the asking...

Thanks Joey, I have a feeling I might be on my own about St Albans potential, which may be a sign that I'm actually wrong :( Thanks for your input, it's helpful.

Hi all, I'd like to hear your opinion about buying an IP in St Albans. I am well aware the it has a reputation for being a problematic area, crime etc, so I am not asking for St Albans horror stories. I'd like to know if people feel St Albans has potential for capital growth over the next...

You are so right jingo. Thank you. That is one of the reason why we have been confused and feeling a bit stuck at the same time. Will ask ourselves the questions you suggested! Thanks heaps again!!

No of course not 2 bed for ppor. think i created a bit of confusion in the Prev post! 2 bedroom unit for ip only in the better suburbs or 3 bed house in more affordable suburbs If it was for ppor we want min 3-4 Bedrooms and we would be looking at 700k @Dbz_vic thank you :) That is...

We saved about 30k now and each month we can save another 3000 dollars approximately Our dilemma We cant make up our mind on whether we should be focusing on house and land in affordable areas like st albans reservoir albion melton frankston seaford or Berwick (house and land package)...

Thanks Wylie I tried to post my response yesterday twice and for some reason it didn't post. I will definitely check out your gallery. It is inspiring to see what $1000 can do in the above pic. Your son did a great job!

It is inspiring to see what $1000 can achieve. Thanks for sharing! Does it include the floor as well? Very nice result!

Thanks once again for your valuable feedback Wylie. Yeap like you suggested we will start getting quotes. Like you said, it would be great to improve the house even if the rent doesn't go up as we are also considering to move into the house for a few years in the near future.

thank you for the feedback it's really good to get some rough idea of how much things cost..was thinking of doing the paint job ourselves as we have a friend who's a painter who can give us a hand.. is it possible to paint the kitchen cupboard or benchtop?

Thank you Wylie After posting the post I found another link of the house next door with more pictures and description and here are the things mentioned that our IP lacks - Double lock up garage - ensuite - updated bathroom I have attached a floor plan to find out if making an ensuite is...

Hi everyone I have attached 2 photos of one of our IP's kitchen for experienced renovator's valuable feedback. We do not want to spend more than $5000 (ideally $2000-$3000 max if possible) and we would like to learn how we could best invest our money. it is highly unlikely we would be able...

Thanks everyone We did look at the option of frankston but we also read somewhere on somersoft that it is not easy to find tenants. Moving into frankston is not an option for us due to work and school etc. How about albury and wodonga vs frankston and sunshine? We are looking to invest...

Hi 1st time post, but we have been on somersoft reading other people's posts for the last couple of months. Decided to ask experienced investors out there what they think of units in sunshine Vic. Seems like there is a lot on Sale at the moment and there are also some under 200k with a good...
