    Journey so far - $75k salary (average), 5 years, 10 properties

    Well Done! Nice to see the simple formula of acquiring knowledge, maintaining laser focus (or as I like to say having an impenetrable mindset) and taking some direct action to achieve your desired outcome.

    Property Coaches

    Read Jan Somers book "More Wealth from Residential Property" I spent years avoiding this book because it wasn't flashy, with all the marketing hype of many in the market, boy was I wrong! Get your foundation set, focus on your end game strategy and stick to it like glue, believe 'anything...

    Investment/entrepeneur psychology resources

    I do agree, also with a certain amount of research and knowledge in all areas, be it, property and business you can mitigate a great deal of risk.

    Which design do you prefer?

    Hi Derrick, nice work. Option 2. Personally, I absolutely hate (harsh word I know, maybe despise is better) the laundry in garage concept, I make sure anything I get built does not have this in it's design. It seems to be more prevalent in QLD H&L, especially when marketers are flogging...

    How Much Do You pay for Conveyancing

    Damn Fleur, I forgot to update you ... The conclusion which happened some time back was the following on my original 1200-1500 estimate, with 650 being the approximate professional fees. Professional Costs --------- 770.00 Sundries --------------------- 55.00 Total Professional Fees...

    Changes / tightening on servicing for investors

    Thanks guys. So who do we have left at 90 LVR + LMI? I'm guessing some smaller solutions looking for market share at perhaps slightly higher rates?

    Investment Loans 95%

    It would be nice if this thread got back on track to "Investment Loans 95%" or at least in alignment with high LVRs and the banks current status, anyones actual experience with this in the current climate, that might more useful for the OP and anyone else coming to read it. I don't mind...

    Investment Loans 95%

    Thanks Rolf. I was thinking about the ethics of it when I posted the question, but given banks and lenders love to review policies, (to naturally assist the investor :D) I was thinking a sneaky way around that would be to employ an internal time frame of say anything outside of the last 12 or...

    Investment Loans 95%

    Has anyone experienced if Bankwest are reducing their LVR to 80% if you have an original 90% LVR with LMI and are looking to release some equity would that initiate a risk re-calc at 80% in alignment with their new policy or would you be able to sustain the already 90% LVR pay the LMI difference...

    Open Wealth Creation

    I couldn't agree with you more, as long as your eyes are wide open, DD is still a factor when selecting any product and/or service. Definitely a consideration for the passive investor who wants to leverage other people to achieve growth and the desired wealth outcome in alignment with ones...

    Tools for assessing property portfolio performance

    Not sure, but Crossover does have a Linux version so you can run Windows programs from that. I don't have the platform setup to test, but given how solid it is for Mac and OSX has a Linux backbone I'm sure it would be fine. They have a trial download people can download and test before...

    Open Wealth Creation

    That's interesting, when I commented on this last November, the developer kickbacks, sorry sales commissions, were not disclosed and everything was said in such a way that suggested absolutely no other commissions other than the upfront *cough* *cough* buyers agent, I mean, mentor fee. Not to...

    NSW Central Coast

    Hey Brian, why don't you PM Starofdavid with the agents who appear to be proactive with you to help him optimise his time in the area. He's doing the right things, just needs a little inside help in the area. Food for thought :D
