    Anyone got a spare house laying around?

    Hope I've picked the right spot for this thread :o I'm looking for a house to move onto a block in regional NSW. Preferably with a colourbond roof. I have had a look on ebay/trading post etc and have a house in mind but it is not ideal, thought it was worth throwing it out here as well...

    What is wrong with this property?

    What am I missing here? This property has been on the market for a long time. Looks good in the ad, waiting on a call back re strata fees. http://www.realestate.com.au/property-apartment-nsw-auburn-112754755

    You know you're obsessed with property when...

    You see a program on telly entitled 'IP Man' and, for a slit second, you wonder if it's about Investment Properties. You see an old house in a good street and start an investigation into who owns it. The first question you want to ask new friends is how much they paid for their house :D

    Breaking up (with professionals).

    I have had the same accountant for 4 years, the same mortgage broker (on and off) since I started 10 years ago. Both of them think they are capable of continuing with me. But to be honest, the more aggressive my strategy gets, the less confidence I have in them. I have moved to a different...

    Over zealous agent? Or owner? Both?

    We are currently renting after a last minute move to sydney, making sure we like the area etc before buying. It is the first time we have rented a house in over 10 years. We are landlords ourselves so thought we knew a bit about this renting racket. We just had the 3 month inspection, we...

    Moving too quick?

    Is there such a thing? I've been into property in a big way for a long time but have spent the past 10ish years raising babies and building a business. We are finally at the point where the banks will look at us and I have hit the ground running. I'm just wondering if it could all end in...

    We have recently moved to Sydney's west and are now renting. Our PPOR (in Vic) is rented out. We are looking at getting into the market in a big way while we are here and have already purchased an investment property which is yet to settle but should be pretty close to CF+ in a couple of months...

    The good, the bad and the ugly of....Parramatta?

    Bear with me :rolleyes: After looking extensively in the West I am starting to wonder if it is the best investment choice for us. Strategy at the moment is lump sums to pay down debt and we are in the unique position of having the time and skills to reno quickly and efficiently. With this...

    Marayong?

    Looking at buying a reno in Marayong with potential to subdivide. Prices are a lot higher than what we were looking at in the deep west (Hebersham/Willmot/Whalan area) but the blocks are bigger and able to be battleaxed. Worried about spending more money though (<500K!) although the numbers...

    Does rent + debt affect borrowing power?

    First time poster, long time lurker - hi everyone :) I've called my broker but am getting impatient waiting to here back and being a Saturday, it might be Monday before I do so thought I would pose the question here. I've spent a long time talking about investing and now it seems I may just be...
