    Oven for Sale - Perth

    No offense at all. Horses for courses, and not everyone (my wife included) can justify such a cost, but I've always wanted to go top quality with the pointy end of the kitchen and one is allowed to spoil oneself :) It was really the teppanyaki grill that did it for me ;)

    Oven for Sale - Perth

    We wouldn't pay $7k either, but you can spend a lot more on these things. I also wouldn't spend this on an IP either, its definitely a luxury for yourself, and this was the ambition when we bought it. I love cooking and wanted to spoil myself with a fantastic oven. History however shws us...

    How 2 Terminate Building Contract!

    I have just gone down this path. PM me if you want to know any of the finer details or anything else. Any builder that fails to communicate is a sign of trouble as they may be avoiding you due to the fact that they are in trouble, or just don't care. Ours did this, and they were basically...

    Purchaser killing deal

    Absolutely true. You can do whatever you like to a contract, so long as all parties agree. Just make sure there is no wriggle room in anything you put, trust me on this, al lot of grief we had was due to the slight maneuver room given by the wording of a particular clause. As for agents...

    Purchaser killing deal

    After lots of posturing, swearing, and associated carry on we have finally settled! :) I think they have finally accepted that their position was untenable and really couldn'targue the point anymore, and we didn't back down from our position that we have done all that we could do. So now we...

    Looking at travelling? Best places in the world you've visited that you'd recommend!

    Not sure why you would discount SE Asia, uber cheap and a lot of fun. Our faves is Tokyo, not the cheapest but so much to see and do in a culture diametrically opposite to us Australians. We had a ball in the few days we spent there last year. 2nd is New York, again not cheap but...

    Purchaser killing deal

    Seems a bun fight has started :) Basically the nature of the sale is that beleieve we have a good price in a very limited market (unfinished house). I guess we may be pessimistic in believing we could not acheive a similar price if we put it back on the market, maybe or maybe not. So, we...

    Purchaser killing deal

    Dazzling, not a truer word spoken :) I think over the past two years I have seen numerous examples of absolute wrongdoing with absolutely no consideration for anything beyond themselves. I tell you its all been a very deep learning experience. Celeste, thats what I believe is the case.

    Purchaser killing deal

    He will have one hell of a fight on his hands if thats the go. Dazzling, am well aware of that, but I'm 3000K's away at the moment and have little option but to at least try the letter which is simply stating that these people abide by their contractual obligations. Now, if that does not...
