I always worked on $5k - $10k. Just checked the Acrhicentre reno cost guide and it says $5 - $7.5k but that is 2005 prices. I guess budget on $10k? Nick

Got abn but not registered for gst so less than $75k pa. Sounds like I need to push a bit harder with finding other products. My broker is really good but if there is a viable option I need to investigate it.

Well, I could stretch to 40% but I want to keep a buffer and I'll need it for other things ( business, etc ). It's very frustrating as we weren't looking for the next ip but the house over the rear fence of my ppor has come up and I always said I wanted to get it and have a great value adding...

Same old problem I guess. But I'm trying to finance a new purchase that is a great opportunity for me. My broker Is finding that I'm failing the banks' serviceability (by a fair bit - although I can afford it). I would have thought that an equity lend or lo doc would be a simple option but...

I think you're right Aussierouge, just saying it does have the desired result, that's why they put out such carefully worded statements about interest rates. Having said that I can't see many investors and homebuyers deciding not to buy property because Glenn Stevens has made a statement...

This is in today's Age (10th Feb) http://www.theage.com.au/business/rates-to-fight-housing-booms-20100209-npqm.html The Governor of the Reserve Bank has now explicitly stated that the bank will use interest rates to try and limit asset bubbles and busts such as property booms. I'm not sure...

Hi Olly, I was born in Bangor but I never really lived there. Lots of rellies though. My wife is Spanish. I fixed the uneven vertical lines on the Contact page. The black and grey lines are a bit puzzling, they should be the same (They are on my browser), which browser are you using? Does...

Hello Olly you Welsh? (me too) Thanks for the comments. I've been trying to fix the banner the past couple of days. The banner should appear on all pages now. I fixed the video yesterday so it makes sense you could see it today. The vertical lines are supposed to be the same length, you...

Very wierd. The code is exactly the same for both pages. :confused: I'm going to have to look into this more closely :mad:

Gracias! Esperamos que sea un exito!

That's true, although you can block competitive ads. I hadn't seen the ad you mentioned and I reckon it's a bit too close to what we offer (I need to monitor who's advertising on the site). Otherwise, if you take an 'abundance' view of the market, the more sites of similar interest are...

Y-man and Handyandy, please try that page again and tell me if you can now see the banner. If not, does it give an error message when you click on the "done (but with errors on page)" in the lower left task bar? I tested in IE7 in the office and it worked on all except the /courses page. I...

Hmm, but you can see the banner on the other pages? If you can't see the banner on any pages there must be a compatability issue with IE7, I'll have to do some tests tonight. I think the banner calls out flash version=9,0,28,0. I didn't have anyone say they were missing things during our...

Y-man There should be a link back to home in the Flash banner at the top of the page. This banner should appear the same on every page and provide the same links as the ones at the bottom. Let me know if you can't see the banner for any reason. (I had someone having trouble viewing the...

Boom Boom!

Hi folks, I hope this isn't considered spam! We've been working the last couple of months setting up a new business which we're hoping will keep us entertained over the next few years. In the same vein as other threads on the forum about members' businesses I'm happy to discuss any questions...

It doesn't make sense, something must have changed. They built a house and got way ahead on the repayments for the last 18 years? THEN they splurged on toys? I would have thought that the kind of person who liked instant gratification would have a track record of it. I'd be interested...

No, not unexpected, I predicted it would be close to 1M. The quoted range was, I believe $750 - $800. I don't know what the reserve was because the auction flowed pretty smoothly. I've seen a few auction results recently where they were passed in and the reserve was quoted, and the...

Seen some high prices in Richmond as well. I was at the auction for this one on Saturday, went for $975k http://www.bigginscott.com.au/index.cfm?pagecall=property&propertyID=1123536&propertyStatus=SoldRented A pretty tired old house but a large block (for Richmond) about 300sqm and 2...

No surprise. There's plenty of $1MM plus properties around Box Hill!
