Sorry Reeco.....forgot my tablet this morning, but then again it probably wouldn't have helped because these snivelling, dip****, good news, political @#$%ers make my blood boil when they start telling you how everything is going to be yet they haven't got a @#$%en clue on the reality of it all...

'Evening all, Couldn't resist replying on this occasion. I wrote a long spiel in response to posts on 12th & 13th but by time I finished it I had been timed out and lost the bloody lot.....so I thought @#$% it why bother? :mad: Anyway, the crux of it all was that Landcorp have on their...

Morning All, Thanks Reeco, you've prompted me to clarify things a tad further. Years ago, we were able to have our cake & eat it too by seeing huge increases in property values as well as having astronomical cash flow coming in from obscene rents. These days, the capital growth is (and...

Do you have a job already lined up? YesSo this is the job on Barrow Island? (with accomm on the island, or are you needing to be based in rental in Ktha?). Where are you going to live? Anywhere reasonable and near civilization As above.....dunno if you're in digs on Barrow, or needing to...

I'll reply to your post Reeco. My views on karratha are well documented if you search through my previous posts going back a number of years. My current view is unchanged and I seriously urge others to use extreme caution in trying to procure property in Karratha......be very specific about...

Sorry Reeco....have you got dual tags in this thread i.e. Loggen in as Ol Painting & Reeco??? I'm confused....who's comments are in red font?

:( Ol Painting, sorry but you have me worried. Reading your post it sounds like you haven't got a clue what you are about to get yourself into. Do you have a job already lined up? Where are you going to live? Do you know how much rent you may have to pay? Going FIFO??? Doing what? You...

G'day Petal & All, Probably a bit too soon to gauge any major impact from loss of jobs here presently as most companies are holding their ground. I don't know if too many local Rio staff will be impacted just yet. There doesn't seem to be too much rumbling from other companies....yet!! I...

Very well said Kevin....... .......and IMHO enough said for anyone to make an informed decision on investing here. This thread coupled with many others pertaining to Karratha provides a sh#tload more info than people get from a 'Hot Spotting' report in terms of tangible, relevant and...

'Evening All, Just a quick reply as my first long winded attempt fizzed off into cyber space because I took too long to write it. Pango, you have essentially reiterated my underlying thoughts on Karratha in general terms. Rest assured the new super camp opposite the cemetery is here to...

'Evening all, Michael, not sure how far committed you are with 'The Ranges' but just some food for thought. I received Darryll Green's email flyer this arvo on this project and his attached 'map' showing billions of dollars of investments neds to be taken with a grain of salt. All the...

Evening All, Further to the Karratha discussion (KPH & Ausprop may already be aware of this) I was having a chat with building company rep today and I asked if there was anything new on the 'release of land titles' front. For those of you who might not be aware, the latest land ballot in...

G'day Ausprop, The yield on the surface appears outstanding in gross terms. But, the reality is that with all the other extreme expenses / outgoings involved in living in Karratha (huge council rates, cyclone insurance, p#ss poor property mgt, $1.90/ltr fuel, extortion in groceries and so...

To help balance the picture being painted about Karratha (which I agree will be a good thing for quite a few years to come for people doing their research and making sound decisions), whilst doing our bit for our footy club and the Clean Up Australia day last weekend, we traipsed many streets in...
