    What I learnt ? Call Depreciator, always ask questions.

    What I learnt ? Call Depreciator, always ask questions.

    Thank you Wylie, It is indeed a big decision to "jump in". We have another site that is awaiting rezoning and after doing the first one, I am not closed to the idea of just selling once the changes are in place (in a way the first development and not knowing was good). Over in the west...

    Thermomix. Anyone have one?

    Hi BMW, What about an imitation as a middle ground for you and Mrs BMW? I have the Bellini which I believe you can get for $279 from Target on sale. There are a few brands on the market which I believe are the cheap older versions of a thermomix. We could not justify the thermomix...

    Newbie Question: How do you know you've made the right decision?

    Hi NZ Girl, I am a novice myself and sorry if someone has mentioned it above, however have you spent time looking at your finance structure? I find it equally important. IMHO, if you can pay interest only with offset account ( not sure if FHBG restricts this) It will help your confidence...
