Agents a prick I hate under quoters.

How they get away with it you ask? They quote the agents estimate of selling range and put vendors reserve price as TBA on authority thus they are allowed to quote off the esr they've provided which has to be substantiated by sales (easy to manipulate) owner sets reserve on auction day agent changes price accordingly all legal.

If you wanna fk up the agent submit a written offer of full price prior to auction if the vendor rejects they are legally required to raise the ask to no less than the price you put forward

Do it for the lulz

The other common thing is emotional attachment for a client that doesn't really want to sell creating unrealistic opioions of worth. I often see reserve prices that are waaaaay too high and it is completely not the agents fault.

haha that is awesome.

Full price meaning the highest amount listed in the range?

Is it safe to assume that they are always chasing a figure above the range or willing to accept offer within?

whats peoples thoughts on living next to a rail way line & crossing down the road?

Would the crossing noise be a headache?

Auction this weekend & in two minds about placing a bid...

All good if you can't hear it.... I'll give a toot with the air horn in the crown lol

Almost as bad as people selling numberplates, except there's no emotional attachment, just a f**khead

speaking of which, i know a guy trying to sell plates for a number of years... SSS

i run into him with work and he's always asking if i know someone interested. he wants $1500-2000. the closest offer ive heard so far is someone say "if he drops a zero at the end, maybe"

and he is a f**khead

Yeah anything above the bottom of range will force them to amend if not call reiv theyll hammer them quick smart! It really varies suburb to suburb but the inner city market is so hot at the moment reserves seem rather irrelevant for good properties

yup... CBD is a joke.

Guy at work was trying to buy a CBD apartment and some agents didn't even reply to his emails until he set up a fake email account where he changed his last name to Wong...

recent one, that I can talk about as it was not a client one... just a mate trying to buy...

Bids went 400, 405, 410, 415, 420, 425, then a Chinese guy just went 550 and it was over

Are you serious

Please tell me this is a joke

I f**king hate this Chinese property bullshit and our government (Liberal OR Labor) for selling us the f**k out.

There are more millionaire Chinese than working Australians...say hello to new Hong Kong, Melbourne.

How does charging them more money make housing more affordable in any way, 10k is chump change to these people...it's just increasing the government benefit from selling out the property market.

Foreign investors aren't even buying directly a lot of the time and that's a reality not reflected in the sales figures. Rhey're sending money to Australia and having relatives/friends here buy the property for them.

Hmmm just had an idea on how I could make money by outbidding Patrick

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
