Thank you all. Days ticking by but still haven't found anything yet. Yesterday we went for an open house for a duplex in Cherrybrook (Darlington dr) which we liked and as I was asking questions to the agent, she replied: "Sorry this property is already under offer". I was really angry and asked...

Thanks Jacque and nhg. nhg I've sent you a PM. Jacque I've sent you a PM with the reply.

Update: Confused after looking at properties in Cherrybrook So We spent 2 hours in Cherrybrook shopping village and another 2 hours looking at homes in Cherrybrook. We liked the shopping center. However the homes we viewed in Cherrybrook were a lot more expensive than we originally...

Hello All, Recently sold my PPOR and looking to purchase a House or Torrens Title (Duplex, Townhouse or Villa) in Cherrybrook with a max budget of 700K + stamp duty. Can anyone please advise me on which streets to avoid (esp. 1KM radius of the upcoming train line)? Ive searched...

Thank you all. I'll get it fixed on my own and write it down to bad luck.

Hello All, The neighbor living behind me threw a rock and broke our bedroom and tool shed window. Seems like he was high on drugs. He also threw mud and soiled all our clothes on our clothes line. Cops were called and the offender is on the run, with cops "trying" to arrest him for the last 3...

Thank you ALL for your replies. I have found a MB that i'll be proceeding with. Thanks again for your replies. Moderators, Please close this thread if necessary.

Well you are not alone. As a a fellow FHB, I share your pain. Its getting so ridiculous that often agents tell you what price will get you the property. Good Luck!

Hello All, With the banks reducing LVR from 95% to 90%, my pre-approval is no longer valid (according to the bank). I have a deposit of $30000 saved EXCLUDING the FHOG. I'm looking to buy around $400K to $430K. I've realized that I need the services of a Mortgage Broker primarily for: 1...

Collector: What you say seems most logical. I'll try to get a letter from the agent. Yes, I've got the holding deposit back. So am only worried about the legal implications. Thanks so much Collector, for your prompt (and sensible) reply :) UPDATE: I've received a letter from the RE office...

Hello All, We paid a deposit on a property and signed a contract on a Saturday. However we soon changed our mind (for various reasons) and decided to pull out. We informed the agent few hours later who says Vendor has already signed on the contract. We request refund of our 0.25% deposit...

Hello All, Can anybody PLEASE PM me the recent sales in Northmead (NSW 2152) for 3 bed fibro homes with around 580+ m2 land? Want to put in an offer on such a property. I dont know the suburb that well, so any additional info would be of great help. Thanks much!!

What is considered good growth? If one buys a CFP and it grows over period of 5 years, is it good growth? What are the parameters? More importantly what defines a high growth property? Am confused. Thanks.

Thanks stumunro. Will try these tips this weekend.

Excellent, Thanks! As an aside, our search for our PPOR is proving to be extremly challenging and frustrating. FHB competition for properties under 450K is intense. Most open homes are cancelled in spite of agents refusing to give appointments during the week days. The agents hardly return...

Hello All, We are looking to buy our first home (PPOR), build some equity and then hoping to buy our first IP by mid-2011. Am the only one who earns (decent income) with my partner still looking for work. After reading all these threads on Investing, I have understood the following: 1. Buy...

Thanks Everyone!! This thread has been of great help.

Bill The link to the document you posted is a fantastic resource. Thanks for that!! I can't think of any positives (to Holsworthy/Wattlegrove) from the construction of this terminal. More importantly, I fear it will have a negative impact on property prices in the area. Can you think of...
