    Just looking at this forum lately I really think that Property is losing its Mojo ?? Anyone also thinking the same??

    Seems lots about very little.... a sign of the times

    Of course I could be wrong

    What? No way. There's very exciting threads about htw property clocks. No stamp duty in vic...that's huge. There's shares, lic's, more shares, and my favourite Bunnings in the U.K.
    How could anyone not be excited, hours of entertainment here.

    @Barny 's a lot quicker than me, so I'll leave the wit to Barny.

    Not losing mojo, just a reflection of where the wider forumites are at. Many want to know about the here and now issues, rather than market forces, bigger picture stuff.

    Keep those big picture threads going and we'll come around... slowly....:eek:

    Now onto find that Bunnings in the UK thread. I've just renewed my passport after ... how many years....

    thought I would bump this thread up again........The share threads are coming thick and fast now on a property forum? How interesting.....

    This is I think perhaps a good indicator that investors are struggling to source finance, and cash flow as property yields are woeful at the moment in many markets including Sydney, Melb and Perth.

    Perhaps we will also see a softening of property in general.

    Yes....very good observation indeed...but the share market is at toppy levels...the best time to get in was the early part of last year....my shares have gone up by 30% since averaged out. The only non-performer was Telstra.

    Having said that I have plans to put more money in when the market pulls back again ....

    Playing catch up on this thread :D

    Gulf Industrials Limited ? :confused:

    I agree, unfortunately I'm crap at picking which stocks are unusually cheap and which are crashing . I've just invested in the indices via Vanguard over the years

    upload_2017-5-7_8-5-36.png

    There's always a bargain somewhere (property or shares) :D

    I agree, I had to bail the majority during the GFC due to the Navra fund strategy hitting the brakes, then not starting up again post recovery to benefit. In hindsight, lucky I got out when I did

    Whereas a friend bought up like crazy during September 2001 (World Trade Centre Crash), 2002/2003 (Iraq War), 2008/2009 (Financial Crisis) and profited immensely

    The enemy in the mirror, or as Mike Tyson said, "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face"

    It depends on which States everyone is from I suppose; if you are an investor looking to buy in Melb or Syd right now; the scenario is not too flash..the last 2 or so years CG will start to slow down at some point, so that's not a good thing - and the recent rises have left rents trailing.
    Maybe W.A and S.A are better options for rent returns and future growth now - given their last few years of slowdowns?

    Its only a matter of time before the beast awakens,lots of areas with development potential which would still be cash flow positive,its really a no brainer if you know where to look and buy well.I still think the boat has not sailed as yet,but buy the ticket soon.
