Excellent! Look forward to hearing from you! Louise

The accomodation crisis in Hedland is like Karratha. However Karatha has properties approaching a million dollars and rents are higher too. Having said that Hedland looks to be viable as both the export point for iron ore as well as for its position as a major port. The mining sector looks to be...

Hi, do you mean a link to look at pictures etc? I do have some that a friend took for me when we purchased, as we couldnt get a flight plus accomodation together in Hedland. I will track them down. I havent listed it with the agent yet as I was waiting till this weekend to send all the paperwork...

Hello all, I have a property for sale in South Hedland if anyone is interested. It is 678m. I am disappointed at selling it, but we have four and are finding the repayments plus the prospect of the cost of development, means we would be better off selling this one. We could then build on...

We were recently in South Hedland speaking to a biulder up there about our house we are building. He told us to DEFINATELY use a product called Crimsafe. It is used by most builders up there now. It is a mesh embedded in the glass so it cant be broken. I did a websearch and there are 3 companys...

Yes, I think I will have to use a construction loan . The problem is they want to take security over both Hedland properties to fund one being built then use the equity in the built home to borrow for the second. This means we cant build simultaneously the two. This would be cheaper and...

Thanks Wylie, I have spoken to two... One said I cant get the Beachside property until I build on the 2 properties in Hedland. That makes it very difficult. The other said I could leverage against the existing properties to get the beachside one, but then couldnt build....no point doing...

The repayments are no problem. When both properties in Hedland are tenanted, yhey will be bringing in at least $1000 each per week. We dont need to chip in to any morgage payments until interest rates top 11% The transportables take 6 weeks to manufacture so I am allowing that with a xmas...

I posted this elsewhere in this forum, but have moved it to here as I REALLY need some advice... Hello all, i have been watching here for ages, soaking up so much great advice. Heres our situation: We began investing less than 6 months ago. I was paralized with fear, and spent months...

Hello all, i have been watching here for ages, soaking up so much great advice. Heres our situation: We began investing less than 6 months ago. I was paralized with fear, and spent months researching. We had a home valued at $550,000 with $89,000 owing on it. We borrowed against the equity to...

reno info Hello, I know I am here in the west but I have been looking at flat packs for ages... firstly I downloaded a great tool which let me design the kitchen in 3 d so I could suss it out. It also gave me a quote of sorts from the manufacturer, as well as cutting lists, cupboard sizes...

Well I wasnt going to admit it but I gave a little snigger too.

I gave Kevin a call and will get back to him as he was tied up. Hopefully he can help us otherwise we will need to look at plan B. I realise there is a backlog for the builders, that is why we opted for a steel frame home. The company can erect it to lock up in around 2 to 3 weeks, then it is...

After a false start, with a sale falling through, we have finally begun our tiny empire! We settle this week on a property in South Hedland, which we paid $130,000 for. We are really excited. After reading some of the posts here about Hedland, we have decided on building a steel frame home, a 2...

Same here too! I love looking at houses, Home Base expo etc etc. Not hubby. He would rather have his nails pulled by pliers. Having said that he would gladly lift, build, shift, create anything I would like, so long as he never has to go shopping. Can I ask you why your units are not in your...

Hi Lucy, It is on the ground floor. The body corporate are arranging to get the whole block rendered and made into a secure block with key access. I was looking at the annual report and saw it in the minutes of the agm. The owner lives in london. I figured that would increase its value...

Well after lurking here for months, we have finally decided to begin! We refinanced our home and have $180,000 available to invest. We have found a one bedroom apartment studio in Glendalough Perth and put an offer in on it. The vendor wont go below $190,000 so we have offered to pay that, if he...
