House in Western Sydney for $110,000 reno $50k resell $240,000

Will love to follow this one.....interesting looking property to try to turn into 250k.....mind you I speak of no experience in Sydney or in Oz for several years....so what would I know.
 
Whats with all these fire damaged houses, tenants decide that since they are being evicted they'll torch the place or....:confused:

The neighbours should be extremely happy once you've tarted it up Nathan

Would love to go and watch this unfold, but its a long way from Perth and they won't get the job done in a day or two

They are housing commission homes which have caught fire. DoH doesnt want to repair them so they sell them off at auction.
 
On the topic of fire damaged homes.. what happens if you purchase a property and while settlement is taking place or shortly after settlement takes place, vandals torch the property, is there insurance which could cover this risk?

THats why you take out insurance as soon as you exchange. You have an equitable interest and if the vendor has no or insufficient insurance, you can lose your deposit and have to recover it through legal action.
 
Is this type of insurance compulsory? I know in some other countries, banks require insurance on a property as part of the requirements of getting a mortgage (to protect their interests).
 
Vendor may own outright. Or may have $150k insurance on a building that will cost $200k to rebuild. Or may not have flood cover.
 
Just settled this property for $110,000 in Western Sydney and with $50,000 reno is set to sell for $240,000.

Nathan.


Tracked the sale down Nathan. Nice little buy.

My calculated stats of local sales show Median of only $225K at the moment.

So make sure you don't forget to do a carport as well to get that extra little bit of value.

Being Battleaxe and with reserve at rear are nice.

Banks will require the property to be insured after settlement. Usually they won't check, but it would be a term of the loan agreement. Some lenders may require a copy of the policy before settlement but usually not there after.
 
You cant value a house on median prices these could ve out by hundreds of thousands. This will be a brand new product vs average old property.

Will post videos up.

Agreed .....but in a fairly homogenous suburb like Wilmot where most if not all the cottages are variations on the same NSW Housing Commission basic 80m2 design.........I bet you can come bloody close.......and be within a realistic market range.......

PS Don't forget the carport
 
A brand new house for 50k?

This I gota see!

You can do a hell of a lot for $50K (well I know Nathan can).

We resheeted half a house, painted inside and out, painted the roof, new driveway, new bathroom, new laundry and new kitchen, new carpet, new lights etc for $25K. Looks brand new to me.:D

The mean average is bought down a little by the Owner Occupier houses sold by the HC. They are sold at under market value.

True....the NSW Housing Commission do sell their homes to existing tenants at market value LESS the value of any improvements done by the tenants themselves eg pools, garages etc
 
I meant the standard ones that are sold to those who must live in the property as per the contract (not tenants in place). They are sold cheaper than mean average. Some go to auction as well but typically sell for less than market.
 
With the owner occupier only threads, how long do they have to be lived in before they can be rented? Is there a covenant placed on the property to enforce it?

Whats to stop an investor putting on an act by turning up in a flanno and torn jeans with 5 kids in tow in a beaten up Tarago blowing smoke everywhere, wife with a black eye, centrelink payment receipts in pocket, and claim they are owner occupiers, then rent it out?
