Hey guys, not sure where this thread belongs, but i thought this one seemed appropriate. I have seen a similar post on here, but it was for qld. My fiance have had a very friendly breakup, and i we have come to an agreement that i can buy her out for $50,000. After doing a quick few...

I run a security door company, so my answer may seem biased. For standard diamond pattern door you should expect to pay around $300 installed. But that will include a door actually made to fit the frame. (top, middle and bottom width, and out of square to the shape of the door). Its verry rare...

hey troopno, i actually run a security door company, and i think we pay around 40 dollars a door at wholesale price to get a door powder coated. I think its still only around 60 for someone to walk off the street though. They are located in the bayswater area. Let me know if you need the name...

i second the loungeroom photo. The first thing i thought was "oh no, the roofs full of water and sagging= hard work ahead". Maybe see how much it will cost to put some downlights in? It will Modernise the place a little, and take away from the sagging plaster emphasis that the current lights...

ah, thanks luckyone. Well if there is everyone here who is a mortgage broker here, or anyone that has access to that program you talk about, it would GREATLY be appreciated if i could PM you the address. Looks like its nearly sale time, and im getting a little nervous that we may think its worth...

thanks for the fast reply xenia. Thats what i have been doing for the last couple of weeks, there just hasnt been many sales in the last 12-24 months. Ah well, it was worth a try. Hoping there was an instant approx price before we put in offers any higher. I think it still seems like its...

Hey guys, we are looking at a house we are happy with to purchase, but its become a bit of a bidding war between us and i assume another 2 buyers. Trying to get some instant imformation on an estimated land value, as its quite an odd house. ive done some google searches, and the sites i have...

Hi everyone, just had a look through a house yesterday that has been vacant for some time that we were interested in, and were planning on getting a building/pest inspection done before we put in an offer as i saw suggested on this forum, so we could have more negotiating power. Can anyone...

yeah i think your right bargain hunter. I did put our limit down during the week. I was more scared of paying market value or more than i was keen on securing the property now that i look at it.

it was 10k to our maximum limit was the final bid. but it was still had not made the bid. when we told the REA after they chased us, they said it wasnt enough anyway.

well, i just checked on the website, and saw that it was passed in :) Dont know what happens now, but hopefully their price expectations get lowered a little ;)

nice work! letm me know if you go into business. My bathroom neds alloot of attention ;)

well that was a fun experience. I used so much advice i got from here. as soon as we got to the auction we were hounded. I told them politely they are probably better speaking to the other potential buyers, as im only looking for a bargain today. The price had kept going up every phone call...

wow, yeah thanks willair. I imagine we are going to get harrassed by the agent on the day, so i will definatly keep that advice closely in mind. They have been pretty heavy on the phone calls so far, so i imagine they will be persistant on the day. how can i politley keep them at bay? thanks...

haha. Thanks propertuntity and everyone for all the advice. Ok maybe im not ready to battle it out. But i have my capgun and a fully loaded super soaker. I have had a building inspection done which came out fine, and gotten pre approval from the bank no probs. Ive had a realestate agent mate...

Hey everyone, we have a place we have had a look though a few times and are ready to battle it out at auction this saturday. Being the first time we have ever bid. Is there any advice you could give or lessons you have learnt that could help us? Or any links that would be helpful would...

thanks everyone for the replies. the end result was that we just got beaten by the other buyers bid anyway. I found out about 20 minutes ago via text msg. So i guess im in the clear and learnt something new today. Not bad for a sunday :) Thanks again
