We are moving there in March and want to stay for at least 3 to 5 years. Coming from the UK we are used to a very volatile property market. Is it the same in Adelaide? Will we generate equity in 5 years?

Here in the US both the buyer and the seller each have an agent, does it work that way in the UK? Or is it just the seller that has an agent? I am not trying to come acrossed as simple, I have heard that only the seller has representation & want to know if this is true or false.

I approached a real eastate company about selling my house.
The listing agreement started in May 06. I thought it was originaly for 6 mo. I do know for a fact that in the copy I had there was no mention of comission at all let alone it being 7%. All of this information was suppose to be on pp3.
Here's the meat and potatoes of the whole thing.
After about 6 months, I lost or misplaced the listing agreement and I ask him to email me a copy. When I received the copy, on pp3 it had a listing period from May 06 to May 07 (1 yr.) and a 7% comission fee on it.
I strongly suspect that this page has been amended because I would have questioned a 7% comission.
I sent him a return certified letter about 2 weeks ago stating:
Please except this letter as notice to terminate our listing agreement starting 1/8/07. Also please remove my information from the Central Showing Services Company.
I need to know can this agreement be broken any kind of way?
I don't want to use a relator.

real estate folks and articles....currently small setback...prices will continue to rise in a year or so...etc, etc

economists and others...not so rosy picture...the bubble will burst anywhere from 20-50% drops

i can see realtors lying, since they need to make a living and would rather have potential buyers not wait, and prevent their commissions from falling in the mean time

whats your thoughts?

When would you want to buy a house in a flat real estate market? (http://www.fortwayne.com/mld/newssentinel/16526098.htm). There is only one suitable employer. And although I have friends and family in the area which would cause me to want to stay for a long time, I really don't foresee living in the area past 5 years. Can anyone think of good reasons why one would want to buy a house in this market?

Please give me all the resources you have, i am desperate! My dog is sweet and only 50lbs (full grown at 2 yrs old), but everyone discriminates. Not to mention, my mother is disabled, on section 8. So the odds are really stacked against us, but we really need to move, where we live the people hate us. Please help if you have something constructive. Please don't answer telling me to get rid of my pit, or how dangerous they are.

why is it some people never decide to buy a home when it is well known that owning is less costly and rent can never be paid off?

zillow.com and other web sites will give you the estimate of your property value. However, if you have built a secondary structure on you property, how do you account for this value. Do you simply add the square footage of the structure to the main house and calculate the new value based on the average $/square ft? I think it should be more since it is a separate structure. My structure, for instance has electricity, plumbing, a bathroom, heat, air conditioning etc... and is 14' X 34' with french doors two windows, and a fireplace.

Hello,
We are moving from the mainland at the end of February. We are having a tough time finding rental properties on anything other than craigslist. My husband plans on starting a business and the commute is not a very big issue for us - we are just looking for the best place to raise our kids. Any suggestions?

I was looking into buying a house in Ohio and came across something called the Dower Rights. Does this "right" mean that I couldn't buy a house in my name only?
