    Hi all Firstly I am completely naive with commercial investments ( as will probably be glaringly obvious with my post). But how do the big guys like Macca's (speficially) find their sites? I have my eye on a site which due to position and lack of close services think would be ideal for...

    Help dealing with strata management company

    Well....... it's about $600 of interest. $3400 in bc fees and just over $600 in interest. I know some would say it's not worth it, but I'd like to stand up to them and make a point (but obviously that's not worth thousands of extra dollars).

    ATM Machines??

    After extensively looking into this, lots of backwards and forwards with the atm company (the ones with the glossy sales pitch). Here is a big question that they couldn't (or weren't interested in answering). They say in 3-5 years that the machine will pay for itself. So you've been able to...

    I have it ... Hi I purchased it, but have only got so far as a quick flick through. At a very first glance, I thought it had quite a bit of the same sort of info as one of his previous books I read. Can't remember the name of that one. But as I said very quick flick, possibly what I...

    2nd Tier Properties better buy?

    Hi all Am I forming the right opinion? Thinking of purchasing in either Brissy area or Sydney. But in regards to FHBG driving up prices, I'm thinking it may be smarter (and get bargain) to combine with other family members looking. As I can only look under $500k myself, combined we would...

    House with approval & plans for duplex- where to start for newbies?

    Hi It's DA approved, the construction cert where you pay all levies is yet to be done. The asking price is quite high for the area and the existing house is in very average condition. I would say it's about 80k more than the average price. The reason I want a third party to oversee it is...
