    Bellbird Park / Springfield / Redbank Plains

    G'day Scott, We have taken over the management of a number of properties in the area that were purchased by another BA around 2007-2009 in the area, they were mostly established houses 5-10 years old. Not one of them is worth more than what was paid, they have been a disaster, the...

    too many IPs

    [/B] I agree with that, get rid of them, they have done there job, make life easier and stop having to deal with the tenants who occupy these type of properties. Have the same asset base but not as many individual assets.

    too many IPs

    I agree very much with this, never thought I would sell IP's but have sold a few the last couple of years. Have put funds into small business start ups and expanding existing small businesses rather than EFT's but the reasons for selling were similar combined with believing some markets were...

    Small townhouses vs luxury townhouse?

    i would do the one luxury townhouse. Scarcity factor will certainly come into play over time and gives you the option of living there if you choose. You could always build the mega place now and live it then later on in 30-35 years you could always knock it down and build the high density...

    Buyers Agent Recommendations for Brisbane

    Maybe he thought your brief for that budget could not be achieved or he was simply swamped with work. Better to not take on the job than fail to deliver the service don't you think? I have heard only good things from clients who have actually engaged his service.

    Mid melbourne or brisbane

    Both are great areas, more important to make a decision and getting going as both areas are hot ad you are losing ground out of the market. Carindale may have more growth left in it the next 2-3 years but both should be excellent long term areas for investment. In Carnegie make sure whatever...

    Using BA in a hot market...

    It's tough in a hot market as a BA especially when buying for investors as the "fair value" for a property becomes a moving target. The main advantage I would say is the off market transactions, amazingly in a hot market some vendors still want to sell off market, we are getting quite a few...

    Vendor not providing vacant possession at settlement

    Don't settle with them still in the house, opens a massive can of worms. They are in breach of the contract so there shouldn't be any ramifications for you but of course your solicitor will advise the way to go.

    Request to lower price quote on authority by RE agent

    The agent when quoting a likely sell price said $410-$450k, however if they advertise at that price then potential buyers will believe the reserve is likely to be $495k on the day so you won't attract the right buyers to the property. Due to decades of under quoting if you advertise the...
