Share accommodation networks in Sunny/Gold/Tweed Coasts?

October 262009

Are there any classifieds or online listings for rental and share accommodation in the South East Queensland area, barring Brisbane? Domain and Realestate are dominated by metro ads.

share-accommdation.net
and au.easyroommate.com

I’ve been looking for stuff in Townsville with them and have had a lot of luck, I’m sure you will be able to find something for your region through them as well.

Question about real estate investing?

October 242009

just wondering, i know there is alot of people who wish they could invest in real estate as it is a great investment market. I wish wondering if you would invest in a company that invests in real estate for you?
So like lets say the company has all these listings of different real estate projects they are going to buy and you can pick from one. So maybe there is 100 acres they are going to buy at 100,000 dollars. you would be able to invest 1000 dollars in this property threw this company, so realisticly you would on 1 percent of the propety threw the company. then maybe in a year the company would sell the property and get 200,000 for it. you would then get back 2000 dollars. 1000 for the investment and 1000 dollars profit.
would this be something you would do to invest in real estate or you think others would do? of course it would be a legal corporation not like some side business.
I am just wondering as myself would love to invest in realestate but dont have the money.
Thanks!

You can invest in them REIT’s, its like investing in a mutual fund.

What do you think of the new Yahoo! Real Estate site?

October 222009

I just noticed that Yahoo! Real Estate redesigned their site with a lot of maps and cool tools. I especially like the home values and the local market research section that shows you the number of listings and average price in any area. What do you think?

http://realestate.yahoo.com

It’s not bad, there is another one called www.zillow.com (just increase the values by 10-15 percent)

Often times, minimum investment is $1,000.

Need Rental Help in Westside of Los Angeles?

October 182009

I have been on craigslist and all the other sites, I am looking for a reasonably priced studio in West LA. Are there realestate agencies who have rental listings? I would prefer to live in a smaller complex or a guest house if possible.

Try the UCLA housing office. Good luck!

what is the difference between a "cottage" and a "bungalow"?

October 142009

I’m looking for the current, popular meanings of the words as they are used in North America, Great Britain, and in the Repuplic of Ireland. In architecture and in realestate there seems to be some distinction. For examples: an architecural photographer has two seperate books; 500 Cottages , and 500 Bungalows; and IOL realestate has "cottages" and "bungalows" under seperate listings. What is a modest one family home… a cottage, a bungalow or something different ….???
;

North American perspective:
There is a good degree of overlap but some distinctions. A bungalow is usually from the 1870-1930 period. It would have a general horizontal feeling to it, would almost always have a covered porch and overhanging roof as a major design element. It would feature natural, native, low-tech material choices.
A cottage I think of perhaps as a bit smaller, perhaps part of an older tradition for its location. Example: a rural 16th century small house in England or Ireland could be a cottage but never a bungalow. A cottage could be in the 1950s modernist style, for example but a bungalow could not. Any home built in the 30 years could not be a bungalow, unless it strongly referenced the architecture of the pre-1930 period. Bacically: Bungalow is a style, Cottage is a detached smaller home of many, if not any, styles.
Note: in 19th and early 20th century usage, "cottage" was often used as a synonym for "rental house" or a smaller house on the same grounds as a larger one (example: guest house) of any size.
