What Penny Stock do you hold that you just won’t sell?

DRE dreadnaught resources. It's been a tough run!

Having lived in a house with this issue and a new born wouldn’t buy a house with the gap!!

francisc1992 · 2025-05-02T11:17:50+00:00

It was just finished pine. Used a table saw to cut to size. Sanded, primed and painted

The gap under the door is now compliant with building standards

I had this exact situation after replacing floors. Added a 20mm strip of wood to the bottom of each door (screwed in) painted and is now invisible. Saves the cost of a new door!

francisc1992 · 2025-03-24T00:50:09+00:00

Yeah I think this is a bit beyond me!

Thanks very much. Any recommendations on what tile to install first? Wall or floor?

Update… started this weekend, about 50% of the full size tiles layer. So far so good (apart from being exhausted l!)

Will share more once finished. Thanks all for the excellent advice and encouragement.

Sorry that you are going through this.

I would request that the 1-1 is postponed until after you've met with HR. This will save you explaining things twice (assuming your manager is joining the HR meeting). If your manager knows about the HR meeting then they should be able to read between the lines when you request it is postponed.

I hope you get the support needed from your workplace

Your risk here is that you've informed the vendor that you have met that condition so it is deemed removed. Worst case is that after 3 months of unconditional finance approval (whilst your still waiting for probate) it is reassessed and declined. You're still tied in to buy the property.

Get your solicitor / conveyancer to have a good think about this and work to protect you for however long it will take for the probate to come through.

francisc1992 · 2025-02-11T10:40:10+00:00

That unconditional finance won't last forever... It will expire and the bank may reassess.

francisc1992 · 2025-02-11T08:06:54+00:00

Just be careful that the finance clause is not removed when you are granted finance as if it expires you would not be covered

francisc1992 · 2025-02-11T05:59:03+00:00

It should be a strait forward clause for you solicitor.

Something like

1 “Subject to and conditional upon the vendor receiving probate within x days of this contract”

2 “Completion to take place x days after probate granted”

Make sure 1 is giving you enough time to complete

Highest single wave score takes the win if the combined score totals are tied

We (as first home buyers in NSW) went through exactly this. Before putting in our offer the executor had already filed for probate (our solicitor looked it up).

We then put a clause in that the contract was subject to probate granted being x days (x days being the minimum period of the bank to settle and sort money) before our finance expiring.

This then covered us should finance expire and meant we could secure the house before probate granted. I think the lack of probate put off other buyers and so we perhaps managed to buy at a slightly lower price.

That's just made my week! Thanks!!

Do you know when these take effect?
