Hi all, Silly question - but with all the support on here I am hoping somebody can help me out. Has anybody got a 'structure' that they use or a way of making a document which outlines long term and short term goals. How do you go about writing them out so they are straightforward and...

1. 100% of the shots we DONT take DONT go in.... 2. You can race a dead horse around the track but its still dead at the finish line (in other words - get rid of s*it and wear the loss if need be). 3. DO IT! 4. If there is nobody knocking - build a door!

I suppose that it depends how much you WANT to get from it. If you are able to put it all together with a good builder who will help you - then it may only require a couple of hours work and then just paying the progress payments on time. In which case - if you get $60k from it you might want...

The block is on Kawana Island. The couple were seperating so I probably got some more 'leverage' from the situation. theres that magic word again ....

Hi All, We just got notification that a block we put a contract on has been accepted. It was on the market for $250k - and we bought it for $232,500. It was the last remaining block... We are going to build a house on this and live in it - and rent out the house we built earlier this...

Hi Guys, Has anyone had anything to do with mCorp??? I got the free DVD which was a good outline on investing in cf-ve Ip's Worth looking it if you are new to this like me>...... www.mcorp.com.au

Suppose that happens ... we no longer have the same goals. Surely there must be a way to 'buy out' the other holder??? Assumedly you would need to service the loan? Anyone had this situation?

I sell houses for the builder - and my colleague is a production estimator in the business so from both angles we get good coverage - I know what people out there are requesting for a new home, and where... and he can work out the best supplier for maximum profit... We have not built to...

No such thing as a 'fast' and 'cheap' builder - you get one or the other...

dont mess around with it - the BSA and HIA will protect the builder in most cases as the builder pays fees every year to keep them in business!!!! Builder could try to slap you for interest on the contract price - which could hurt also.... Just grit your teeth and count it as an...

Hi All, i have a colleague of mine who is looking to invest in some property - and was wondering if anyone has invested with friends before and what are the pitfalls/good points? he has got $400k equity, and wants to use some of it to build a house to on-sell. We both work in the...

Duane/Sunshine, We should arrange a BBQ or something. I am feeling like a giant sponge at the minute just wanting to absorb as much info as possible.

Keep it as a 4 bedder... more rental appeal... and on a family block you would have to assume people would be more drawn to 4 bed home. 2.9 x 2.9 would be pretty normal size room in most homes - they are only kids bedrooms and most people will be happy with this size.

I live on Kawana Island and am definately keen to catch up. Perhaps a good old fashioned BBQ may be on the cards???

Are there any users on the board who reside on the Sunshine Coast? I am keen to meet up with like-minded people, to increase my knowledge of investing and how to finance IP's properly, set it up correctly for taxation etc.

You would be best to get a valuation done on it - and ask them the question of re-zoning and the effect on pricing longer term. Its a little bit 'crystal ball' stuff - but if there are other developers picking up on it then surely it must be looking like a good indicator on the future potential.

If it is a preliminary report - it is generally because it is subject to change based on compaction reports etc. If you have signed the contract - and it is a fixed price (which it should be at contract stage) then if they have charged you for an M class slab only - they should not be...

If you have a 'P' classification it is normally due to the presence of fill material on the block. Generally it will also be noted as being a s,m,h,e slab. Basically if it has a 'P' classification it is calling for piering to your slab, however, most developers can supply (and SHOULD) supply...

Pegs Hi Pelican, the builder will normally have it written into the contract that if all services/pegs are not present they will require you to carry it out. You may want to check with your chosen builder as some may differ. They should be able to organise it for you and then put it down...
