Anyone know a good landscaper that can build a small retaining wall in Brisbane? required wall length 15m by 0.3m height.

I agree with Shahin_Afarin point 2 depends on the council you are dealing with. With Brisbane city council, if you goes through RiskSmart/SealSmart things can be a bit quicker. It also dependent on the number of relaxation you are applying, that is the more conformed you are with council...

Mostly carpet damage and a few robes got flooded too. The living room carpet got completely soaked and some spots has now got mold growing.

Thanks guys for the advice. I say the PM has been unresponsive because replies from the PM has generally been slow (replying to email, voicemail ect). Insurance has been slow and I had informed PM to just go ahead regardless of insurance, parents more than happy to pay to keep tenant happy...

My parents have a property managed by Q Management, Brisbane. And recently our property got flooded due to the storm. The tenant requested for rent reduction as the place is now semi-unlivable. I have asked the PM to repair the unit ASAP even if i have to pay a premium (estimated $500 damage...

great post! What's with the red carpet?

congratulation! What suburbs are the units located? perhaps if we can run a statistical comparison of the same suburb house v unit. The picture would be more clear? Again I am more than happy to be proven wrong. Rather learn a small lesson than miss out on golden opportunities

I think units are terrible investments. Has anyone been to a "nice" 30 yr old unit? I haven't. The unit itself maybe newly renovated but the common area is usually *****. And that is out of your control. Another thing with units to me is the lesser ability to add value. Can't put granny...

I started property investing not too long ago, now currently doing my first subdivision. There are a few things you need to know: 1. It is not easy, there's a lot to learn, not everyone make money out of this property investing game. 2. Learn, learn, learn, start by reading the local council...

I signed up for pre-register and the sales people have been hassling me non-stop. Apparently they sold 75 units in the first two days. I am not really interested in buying, but the 88th story infiniti pool looks cool. Renting there sure would be nice. Love the idea of paying 600p/w for a 900k...

Anyone got any updates on the draft logan city plan? Especially any changes on the rules regarding dual occupancy and dual key compare to the initial draft?

agreed with willair here. I would put in my 2 cents since this is the area I live in/ invest in. As said before, sunnybank hills is now dominated by cashed up Asians. Prices in sunnybank hills varies from 1m+ at the Avenue (+ surrounding streets) to high 300k on the West side of Jackson rd...

I am going to be going down the route of selling it myself next year. Using for sale by owners or get a builder to post a house and land package ( I am selling two blocks of subdivided land). I think it is a good idea to sell it yourself aside from cost saving: a. I get to interact with...

What's the strategy here? buy and hold? Inala has a lot of Vietnamese immigrants and lower social economic people. (ps one doesn't not imply the other) Plus crime. Saying that long term, the suburb is trending up due to its proximity to the city and currently IMO undervalued. but we are...

what does this mean? does that mean you could borrow against the end product value? I was under the impression that I would have to fund the DA myself?

Hi Terry, Assuming one have to pay capital gain and gst how does that work? Assuming cost of "producing" 1 block of land is 100k (subdivision cost plus land cost) sale price @ 200k Capital Gain tax rate at 30% Then one would pay 18k (1/11th for GST) Then 24k for Capital Gain...

is there a way to structure it that I develop it on their behalf? The reason I am asking is that the predominant market my product target would be asians. And that the more complete package I could provide the better

Soon I will have two newly subdivided block for sale. Now talking to a couple of real estate agents, it seem like the best way to get max. price for the block is to bundle it as a house and land package. Now is there a way to sell the package under one contract so the buyer won't know how much...
