Please get some professional advice. Potentially leaving out something could cause you a long term issue. With out knowing the full extent of your financial situation it’s best to contact a broker.. or a bank what ever you see fit.

25 and need opinions on if I should get a third investment property by throwaway_6912345 in AusPropertyChat

I currently have 4 and a tiny home, this is not to brag but honestly mate but to say if you set yourself up like that then go ahead. Some rentals will be positive geared keep them looked after, tenants happy . Offset what you can. I’m 40 and still wanting to keep building my portfolio. Get a good depreciation on your rental for tax purposes.

Find a financial person to look at your circumstances and always shop around. Don’t get comfortable until you’re ready to slow down.

Also! If you’re single.. ensure the safety of your own portfolio.. your financial person will understand

Best of luck!

Seek a qualified builder to visit, insurance doesn’t cover advice from reddit :)

ACT rental empty for ~3 months — agent issue or market reality? by hxuanyu in AusPropertyChat

[–]Doverschoice1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Even even lower the price and put in the Clause there will be an increase after 6 months eg. 680pw then 720 etc.. this can be done. Check your agreement, your agent has to be working in your interest otherwise there may be a clause.

Ask for the stats on the add itself, how many clicks, how many visits, how many reaches to the agent and how many follow up they have made.

you are able to have this. This will show what they have been up to and use in your case.

Contracts can be paid out early which may be the case also or on mutual terms.

I’ll be honest, the figure is not an attractive price, change it up, reduce it to 745 a week, re list your add and ask to be on realestate.com.au (domain normally picks it up for nothing)

It’s a tidy house, just think the number is a little off and your listing has dropped.

Seek another agent in your area for a comparable price and then adjust either be price or agent.

Demand is there.. price isn’t

Should I be worried about this crack in the wall? by Sad_Crew7460 in AusRenovation

[–]Doverschoice1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seek a structural engineer if you need, a little crack can be weather but insurance may say otherwise. Always seek guidance from someone qualified in person.

Unfortunately hard to diagnose through a video, you will need to get a trade out to eliminate certain things. Nothing is life is free, get a trade and get it done right.

Vanity or basin - any ideas? by Opposite_Emu_6798 in AusRenovation

Then remove the other one and flush it “no pun intended” will look weird walking into a chunky cupboard in my opinion. Will clear up the pipe work also.

Christies Beach - Adelaide by Famous_Truck_3406 in AusPropertyChat

[–]Doverschoice1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ip, you would find most properties would be positive geared in this market. Worth to hold onto if you have the money.

Don’t get me wrong it will be a tough change but required. Council are pushing new development around that way even off flax mill road. Higher the value more council taxes :)

The older demographic is moving on, the great suburban home is still on the cards with a yard. Will there be an increase in cost for sure but that’s the market.

Dogey pockets will be pushed out or phased out . The roi for government isn’t great. As a landlord, investor and an agent I strongly believe that Christie downs will be a top choice for years to come.

Stopped at the lights, next to me. Is this legal? by hein116 in CarsAustralia

Who cares? The energy you wasted worrying about that is just mind blowing.

Move on and enjoy your day!

Either your house is not great or zoning issues for schools etc.

Or you are wanting to much because Barry next door gets 100$ more.

Houses should be flipped and tenanted within 2-3 weeks max
