Thursday, June 11th, 2009Home is the best part of life. Maybe it is the simple settler all of us have been looking for so long. But the love and nurturing is the most important part of what home is called for.
I like many home starters, wondering in the real estate market, hope to find the perfect place to [...]
What Kind of Property for small Investor?
Wednesday, May 27th, 2009When considering the purchase of investment property it must be emphasised that property is essentially a long-term investment. Its inherent characteristics of slow steady growth and low volatility make it dull and generally unspectacular.
How can I make money simple by Investing in Property?
Wednesday, May 27th, 2009My experience has been that well located, actively managed property will, in the long term, out-perform every other investment.
Property has certain unique characteristics that can combine to make it the best investment under the right circumstances. However, there are also certain negative considerations and these should be carefully weighed up before a decision to purchase [...]
Budget, which Property to Buy?
Saturday, May 16th, 2009In order to minimise the risk involved (for with any business venture there is always a risk) it is best to keep to as low a budget as possible with the first project. Save the more ambitious possibilities— digging out a basement to put in an extra flat if you are converting, or adding a [...]
Change of Property use and planning permission
Saturday, May 16th, 2009Some properties on the market may already have permission from the local authority for a ‘change of use’, and planning permission for conversion into flats. This will probably have been obtained by the vendor to make selling easier, or maybe he had intended to convert himself and changed his mind. If you decide to buy [...]
Business Rental Leases Pitfalls Continued
Thursday, May 7th, 2009Dilapidations
This is jargon for the cost of the wear and tear on the premises during the occupation of the vendor. The lease will provide for either the landlord or the tenant to repair and redecorate either the exterior or the interior of the premises or both, very likely at stated intervals. You should check your [...]
Leases Premises - Do You Know the Pitfalls?
Thursday, May 7th, 2009This will interest you if you buy or start a business in rented premises.
A lease is a legal contract and once you are in the premises you are bound by it. If you treat your lease as a mere boring formality, it may cost you a great deal of money later when you find you [...]
Marketing Strategies for Work form Home
Thursday, May 7th, 2009Small business builders are seeking the great chance to be successful. I haven’t been so sure how to market the products we have been creating. Once I remembered one successful merchandiser told me that the marketing played one great part of small business.
How Does One Value a Business Property?
Friday, April 3rd, 2009There is no such thing as an exact valuation which holds for all purposes or in all circumstances. It depends on so many different factors. If you compare two apparently similar businesses, one may have serious flaws which make it expensive, compared to the other. Here are some of the points which affect the value.
Freehold [...]
The best way of Marketing and Selling Property continued
Friday, April 3rd, 2009Methods of selling Property
As mentioned earlier, in the case of conversion into flats it is sometimes possible to finish one flat in advance of the others and sell it, even though the rest of the flats are far from finished. A prospective buyer may exchange contracts subject to completion, which will normally entitle you to [...]

Friday, April 3rd, 2009Fixing the Property selling price
If you researched your project thoroughly at the start, you will have known all along what sort of price to expect for the finished product.
Buying a Shop
Wednesday, March 25th, 2009All that glitters is not gold
Very few businesses offer good money for short hours and no previous experience. If you think you are on to such a chance, you are probably blind to the problems. You should do all you can to check with others more knowledgeable than yourself. The economics are obvious; if it [...]
House and Home
Monday, March 23rd, 2009It is bit hard to sell houses in the market right now. 12 months ago, the house price was sky rock high. So many people hesitated to put their house in the market. Finally, they had the crushed real estate market. Many families can’t face the suddenly decreased house price. Many wondered whether they should [...]
Obtaining Mortgage Bond Finance Continued
Sunday, March 8th, 2009Banks
Given the high degree of competition that exists in the banking sector, the recent entry of Barclays National Bank into the home mortgage bond field probably heralds similar moves by other banks. It also appears to mean a great improvement in bond availability, with money being available when the building societies have little to lend. [...]
Obtaining Mortgage Bond Finance
Sunday, March 8th, 2009Building societies
The building society movement is the financial backbone of the private residential property market, for it is these institutions which have the financial means to provide home loans in the form of mortgage bonds.
The movement originated with so-called ‘terminating’ societies towards the end of the 18th century, when individuals with money to save pooled [...]
Selling and Buying, Pricing Property
Friday, February 13th, 2009Are you absolutely sure your price is right? For every owner-seller who overvalues his property, there is probably one who does the opposite, even if subconsciously to avoid that blow to the ego that could come from a failure to sell. The loss sustained in underpricing is both obvious and instant, providing grounds for recrimination [...]
Is a real estate agent really necessary?
Friday, February 13th, 2009At some time or another, it crosses the mind of just about everyone engaged in a property sale to save on the estate agent’s commission and do a deal without one. There is a considerable saving if everything goes according to plan. The normal commission structure charged by members of the Institute of Estate Agents [...]
Price and Size, Make the right Buy
Friday, February 13th, 2009Price
In most cases, price is the all important figure in the formula adopted to reach a decision, but it is still very much a variable. A house costing say 80 000 means different things financially to different people, depending on the prospective purchaser’s capital, salary, employer and the nature of financing agreeable to the seller. [...]
Location,Make the right Property Buy
Friday, February 13th, 2009Location is not so easy to rate as every city on earth has a range of suburbs from the best to the worst and any assessment is clouded by changing value judgements and the opening of new townships. In most cases, it is not too difficult to determine the poshest, and at the other extreme [...]
Private grounds, the Detached Home
Friday, February 13th, 2009The goal of the average family by and large is to possess its very own home on its own private grounds; a place where the kids can play in safety with their pets, where the barbeque can be brought out in summer and where everyone can potter about in the garden.
