    Just settled on another Marrickville flat

    The flat across the hallway is having a full reno right now. Mine is just partial. There were blokes there on Friday putting carpet in, so I had a sticky beak. It's a one bedder and the mirror image of mine. They have gone beige. Beige paint, beige carpet, beige kitchen. It looked so...

    The kitchen I am doing right now is a green one - more olive than lime this time, but definitely green.

    Just settled on another Marrickville flat

    I won't be doing the kitchen in this flat till later this year when the tenant leaves. It needs a new bathroom, too, but I'll put that off for a while. I'll check out those tiles you mentioned.

    Just settled on another Marrickville flat

    Furnished. That's the key. I have a mate who just got back from KL and was looking for furnished accommodation in the inner west for a minimum of three months till he could work out what he was going to do next. He couldn't find anything that was half decent. I knew some people last year who...

    Just settled on another Marrickville flat

    One bedder. I like one bedders. The entry point is low and the tenant pool pretty big - singles and couples. This one was a good buy for a number of reasons. It's a small complex with no complications like elevators or pools. The sinking fund is okay and from the strata minutes there...
