An update;

We got it!

She had 2 offers, ours and another. The other was for $297,000 in 90 days, ours was $280,000 in 30 days.

As she is in default with her financier they are charging her additional interest, which would have amounted to $17,000 over the extra 2 months, so she took our offer.

Can we have a suburb now please??

Well done

 

[Bargain Hunter]

Congratulations Dave,

Now you'll have to change your Monika.

 

[Dave Hooper]

Can we have a suburb now please??

Here it is.

Needs a bit of work, but all the gear required (including all the bits for a new bathroom) are all included in the price, so need to get the tradey mates organised to do a bit once we settle.

Well done!!

They liked the painted finishes didn't they?

Are you going to paint out the blue ceiling and walls? What an oppressive colour for a WHOLE room.

Fantastic effort for a first ip !! You held your nerve and it paid off.

Wow $17K interest over two months.

Are you going to paint out the blue ceiling and walls?

Was thinking we'll paint the entire inside with a light colour of some sort, make the place look a little more spacious.

We won't spend a whole lot. Planning on;

Painting all inside.
Repairing, sanding, polishing boards.
Carpet to bedrooms.
Finish off deck.
Install new bathroom (which is currently sitting waiting to be installed).

Find tenant.
Search for next IP in same general area.

Hi Dave

You might want to choose your PM now if you haven't already so you can establish what will and won't get you more rental bang for your buck. Also in this rental market you may well be able to line up a tenant before your works are complete.

 

[Dave Hooper]

Good advice (again). Thanks GoAnna!

Anyone got any suggestions for a good PM in Croydon Victoria?

 

[traveller]

Hi Dave,

Congrats!!! Negotiation well done.

As for the PM try Linda At Darren Hill RE. They are in Wantirna and they do manage in Croydon as well. She is very pro-active. She manages my units on Miller Rd, Boronia quite well.

Thanks-

 

[Dave Hooper]

.. try Linda At Darren Hill RE.

Email sent to Linda. Cheers.
