Hi All, I’ll keep this short and sweet. Can anyone recommend an IP savvy Accountant in either Liverpool NSW (or it’s surrounding areas) or Campbelltown NSW (or it’s surrounding areas)? Or south-west Sydney in general? This is our first year claiming a return with an IP so I just want to...

I get the impression you are buying the property for you, but in your daughters name? Keep in mind that if you do go ahead with this plan, it means your daughter wont be able to get the grant when she goes to purchase a property of her own.

See my thread here: http://www.somersoft.com/forums/showthread.php?t=37515 I think you will enjoy ;)

Hi All, What do you all think of this place? Sadly, I think I missed out by just a few days... ;o) http://www.domain.com.au/Public/PropertyDetails.aspx?adid=2006832414 It only has dial up access internet anyway so I'd probably pass :) Enjoy!

We moved in to our first IP in July this year (for FHOG reasons). Our next door neighbour is an elderly man who is retired. He owns chickens. He drops around a dozen eggs every week and a half or so. Luckily enough, he doesnt own a rooster so they arent too bad. A little clucking every now...

I live in Campbelltown and have done for all my life so hopefully I can give you a bit of info on the SW. Current things I can think of happening down this way: - Road widening of the M5 (heading towards the city) to cater for the increased traffic (its a car park in the mornings) - New...

hahaha! that is great! that will definatley pull in the buyers.

Yep. Still young so moving back home with the parents to allow me to save up more cash again! So a few weeks is about right? So I should be calling REA late November?

Hi All, I purchased a property back in June/July this year and have been living in it for FHOG reasons. Below is a summary of the dates things were done: - Contract signed on 05/06/07 - Settlement period ended 17/07/07 (6 weeks) - Moved in 21/07/07 Based on the requirements of the...

Hi Chris, I dont mean to be rude, but didnt you ask the exact same question here 3mins ago? http://www.somersoft.com/forums/showthread.php?t=36842

Hi, You can also try: www.smshpg.com I've tried it out recently on our last (and first!) purchase and it seems accurate. And pretty cheap compared to the $80 report you mention! A quote from the site: "What did they pay? 19 SMS HPG to find out! Have you inspected a property and...

I lived across the road from a church for about 8yrs. Admittedly it was a smaller church, but the fact still remained that getting out of your driveway was near impossible on a Sunday morning as the cars lined the streets and you couldn’t see the oncoming traffic! They also had the youth...

Thanks all for your quick replies! Twitch and jerky - both methods work perfectly. Also thanks to Alex for the advice :)

Hi, I'm having a bit of trouble here. Using the search feature, is there a way to search for 2 words using an AND join or something? Hmmm... ok.. maybe an example is the best way to explain what I mean: Lets say I search for "Baulkham Hills". If I do this I then get all posts with the word...

Sorry to take this a little off topic, but i was told by my broker some time ago it isnt usual for a bank to release its valuation on a house. Is this only true if the house is valued >= purchase price? But if its valued lower than the proposed purchase price they tell you what it is valued...

Hi Bez, I've been considering this too and am a little confused about it all. Currently I am living in the IP for FHOG reasons however I did have this page bookmarked to look at closer to the date it will be rented out...

Correct. In their T&C's when signing up: "Marketing & Promotions By providing the personal information you are permitting us, and/or any service providers who we have supplied with the information (“Third Parties”), to use the information for the following reasons: - internal record...

I’ve recently received several of these from various agents in the area. I figure its just a ploy for them to try and get their foot in the door to get some business from you in another way. Perhaps I am wrong but i just threw the pamphlets them out.

Hi All, Saw the "Property Guide 2007" in the Sydney Sunday Telegraph yesterday (21/10/07) and also found an online version of it which you may (or may not) find of interest. I really dont understand how they came up with this though. Firstly, if you click on "Show me the top 10 suburbs in...

As you can tell by the above posts, Punchbowl does have a stigma attached to it. Also as mentioned above, recently a few shooting etc and unfortunatley it does seeem to be the Punchbowl/Bankstown area that gets in the news a lot for this kind of stuff. In saying that however, I have a few...
