Is there much difference in the content of the Massive passive compared to the bootcamp? I realise the massive passive has a lot of CDs etc, but is it all teaching the same thing? or is there additional material in the massive passive? Greg

This post is timely for my self as well Is there a ball park figure as to what percentage this would add to the properties value?

Hi Carolyn Thanks, I will call prior to settlement to see what is on offer Thanks Y-man I assume "Run"is the company name? And when you say a bit pricey? If you don't mind me asking what % including GST ? Regards Greg

Any recomendations for a good prop manager in the Carlton, Melbourne area? Thanks Greg

Has any body actually done the Chris Howard "BreakThrough to Success seminars? http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=VIPzXIBGSA0 If so how was it? Thanks Greg

Thought I might bump this. Watched a doco yesterday that each week looks at regional areas. Something along the lines of tree changes and the people who now call the regional areas "home " Was specifically on Dalby, Chinchilla and Jandowae. Personally I thought it sounded quite promising with...

You could do worse than read Australian Property Investor Magazine. Has regular articles not only on areas that are doing well but regular "state by state" market segments that can be insightful Greg

Anyone have any thoughts or comments on Moranbah. Huge yields and from what I understand riding the wave of the mining boom. However the latest edition of API mag lists it in its top 100 suburbs/towns and suggests it has more going for it than mining. The mag suggests (from memory) 20%CG expected

Pay the CGT bill and live off the interest. With a few more interest rate rises and enough left in the bank, why not? No tenants or damaged properties to maintain

This is starting to sound Like some kind of Reality TV show

Either 6 months or 12 month leases and paying 7.5% + GST on both. Greg

What is it with neighbours who are overly possive of the car space directly outside their houses? We have 2 separate renters. One the next door neighbour, who whenever anyone parks outside his house is always trying to find out who it is, so he can move them on in order to park his own car...

Frustrating but I guess it did cut down on wear and tear when the tenants vacated early.:) Did you you find more wear and tear than you would expect or compared to when they were unfurnished? ( one of the reasons I thought it might be better to look at the "executive" end of the market)

Thanks for all the feed back Raddles what kind of vacancy rate do you experience? Is your unit part of a pool so the lettings & cash is shared between all or does the onsite managment lease each one as it becomes available. Also on the cost side what extra expenses are you up for other than...

Thanks Geoff I am looking at the executive end of the market. It is the short term nature of this type of accomodation that has me hesitant. But I do like the returns suggested by my friend thats in the market, and he is getting capital gain as well As you say it may be best to speak to the...

I have 2 ips in Brisbane with onsite managers/PMs I was hesitant at first and was thinking of giving to outside PMs after reading lots of articles on the dodgy practices of some onsite managers. However I decided to try them out and I think it was a very good decision as said earlier in the...

I have always been cautious of buying into furnished apartments as imo if you dont have your own furniture you tend to be transient and it would be a smaller market and pool of potential renters to offer your apartment to. I have a friend who has quite a few IPs and has 1 "executive lease"...

Places like Hurlstone Park Marrickville, Dulwich Hill are all close ie approx 8-10 kms i think and would offer a broad range of properties for reno. From 1 & 2 bed units to semis and small freestanding cottages. Was looking in this area 6 months ago to reno and there seems to be a fair bit of...

Read the recent article in API a few months ago on the inner west of Melb/
