Hi All,
So I've recently purchased my second IP... this time, rather than an apartment in Bluechip Sydney which is now CF+, it's a big block of land with a 'old-character home' in Adelaide [AKA. Albatross]
My strategy this time around is still long term yield - but the reno's are aimed at increasing the yield (the property is by far the worst on the best street) to get it more in-line with surrounding properties - which will bring me very close (but still not yet) neutral...
I'm too days into the execution phase of my project, and I've almost already decided that it's time to ring the tradie's.
Case in point: I've spend 3 hours trying to fix a window (wooden style, spring was broken so had to custom order in new ones. Sand, sand again, wood chipped, oh ****... should I glue... sand... ring glazier...)
I'm just not cut out for DIY.
Has anyone else had this realisation mid way through a reno?
