Manawatu Rents on the rise

Being an investor based in Palmerston North, I keep a close eye on all media relating to the property market as this is what creates most peoples perceptions of the market and what’s going on. I generally take no long-term notice of the media as it is always written by a journalist. I have nothing against journalists; they simply are not Property Market experts. I don’t think that many journalists realize how much of an impact their stories have on the community, people and businesses.


According to a large article in the Manawatu Standard this evening, the median rent for a house in Palmerston North is $240 per week – a 10% rise over the past 12 months. This is above the national average of a 4% increase. A 10% increase in your weekly rent expense will hurt a lot of people in the growing number of tenants. After 4 years of a consistently booming property market, a lot of people are left wondering how on earth they will ever own their own home.

I personally feel for everyone who is not on the property ladder! Getting on that first rung is the hardest step and increasing weekly rent while trying to scrape together a deposit is only making times tough.

I have an solution that assists soon-to-be first home owners into their own home. A Lease-Option. I am only offering this solution in the Manawatu area at this stage, however, I have a network of people all over New Zealand who can assist you also.

Have an incredible 2007 and I look forward to regularly updating this blog throughout the year.

Feed333

This afternoon I learned about the Feed333 project and immediately decided to participate in this awesome concept. The goal is to feed 3million children in 33 days. All you have to do is donate $1 and then spread the word.

I decided to donate $10 and really push everyone to give a little this christmas.

What is Feed333 all about? Read below and click here to see a short video.

Vision: We see a world where all children receive the nourishment for their bodies, to FUEL the expansion of their minds, to ignite the fires in their hearts, to live as the greatest possibility of their spirits!

  • Wouldn't it feel good to help feed a hungry child with as little as $1 know exactly where your donation was going?
  • Wouldn't it be fun to WATCH in real time how that $1 grows to feed 1000 children - just from your One simple act?
  • What if along the way to "feeding" the children, YOU were also nourished, empowered, and supported to being your greatest possibility?
  • Wouldn't it feel exciting to be a part of an event that is attracting the best of todays new thought pioneers , and is leaving its mark on how we "view" hunger forever?
  • Wouldn't it be great to accomplish this all with one simple click?

Our Task: FEED 3 Million Children in 33 Days!

stepUP Foundation


I have a passion for motivating, inspiring and assisting young people to achieve their dreams and goals. I always go out of my way to help a young person where I can. I am a strong believer, along with many others, that our schooling curriculum needs to be modified so that it gives young people all the opportunity they deserve and does not ever say no, can’t or don’t.

Over the past 12 months I have been toying with the idea of creating an education/mentoring program for young people. I have been brainstorming what I want the program to consist of and how it will work.

Yesterday I learned about the stepUP Foundation.

“The first intention of stepUP Foundation is to educate and excite teenagers about the possibilities for their futures in business and in life and to deliver on key outcomes of creating empowerment, self worth, inspiration, renewed strength, tools, strategies and fun.

The second intention of stepUP Foundation is for any adults associated with stepUP such as Foundation Members, Volunteers, Coaches, Speakers, even Suppliers and Sponsors to have breakthroughs in their own lives, create new opportunities for themselves or their businesses, learn new skills, establish new relationships and discover new possibilities professionally and personally.

Lastly, the final and fundamental intention of stepUP Foundation is to contribute to world peace. One person at a time. We do that by having Teens – who are our future leaders (the ones who will determine our future as a nation and a planet, our economic stability, world peace and more in the years to come) realize that someone from different circumstances than their own is really not so different after all, and their job, after having their own lives work, is to make a difference out there.”

Magic! This is exactly what I am looking for. This foundation is very similar to the vision I have had for the past year. I guess the breakfast presentation was an “In the right place and the right time” opportunity.

stepUP run a 2-day event for teenagers and have high-profile and very successful presenters. These presenters tell their success story and are promoting:

“If it’s possible for me, it’s possible for you, it’s just a matter of how”


www.stepupfoundation.com


I have learned a lot about having a higher purpose and creating success for yourself and others. Having a passion and sharing that success with those people. I am going to be helping out both financially and with my time at the next New Zealand stepUP event.

My goal is to become a speaker at these events and help the stepUP Foundation achieve their goal of becoming a $100M Foundation operating on all 7 continents by the year 2013.

Options On Property

I now have an excellent understanding of the different options strategies that are available for me to use.

I got my education --> HERE

Optioning property has many different uses and outcomes.

The most popular option strategy is called a 'Lease Option'

This is a strategy that is designed to be a win/win option for an investor who is looking for increased cash flow and a person who is looking to buy their own home but has no way of ever being able to afford the deposit. Home ownership is becoming increasingly harder to attain for the first home buyer making this an extremely attractive alternative. A lease-option is a combination real estate rental, sales and finance technique. It is a property lease for a fixed time period, such as 12, 24 or 36 months, with an option for the tenant to buy the property at an agreed option price at the end of the lease term.

The rental charged under the lease is slightly above market rates and unlike a normal residential tenancy the tenant pays for all the repairs and outgoings. The difference between the market rent and the higher amount charged is called an option consideration and is deducted from the purchase price of the option when taken up.

The tenant has the option to purchase the property at a future date for an agreed future price. An initial fee is charged for this option which is then deducted from the purchase price (along with the option consideration paid as part of the rental) when the option is taken up.

Buyers like lease-options because little up-front cash is required. Sellers also like lease-options because they provide necessary cash flow to pay the mortgage from a tenant who has a vested interest in treating the property well and who is likely to buy it.



Advantages for Sellers

Strong Demand From Prospective Buyers
Top Dollar Option Price
Top Quality Tenants
Above-Market Rent
Seller Keeps the Tax Deductions
No Realestate Agent Fees
No Property Management Fees

Advantages for Buyers


Small Amount of Up-Front Cash Required
Monthly Rent Credit Builds a Down Payment
Try Out the Property Before Buying
Control Property With Very Little Cash
Longer Terms Mean Greater Profitability

They Start Living In Their Own Home Rightaway

They Are Protected Under The Residential Tenancies Act

Devils Run

Next year a very special event is going to happen across New Zealand.

The very first Devils Run.


The Devils Run www.devilsrun.co.nz is a cannonball type car race from Auckland to Queenstown from Tuesday the 27th of February till Friday the 2nd of March.

Full details are available on the website above.

A colleague and I intend to enter a car and we are offering limited amounts of advertising space on the vehicle to a few lucky sponsors.
The event is bound to attract a huge amount of interest with 50+ super cars racing down the country.

A documentary film crew will be following the event and all the news channels have shown interest in the event.

The vehicle we will be driving is a Porsche 911 Turbo and is very hard to miss.

We are looking to pick up 4 sponsors to each provide $2,500, These will be the only sponsors I will advertise on the vehicle.
I can assure you I will be interviewed during the course of the event if only by the local police.

If you are interested in helping me make this happen drop me an email at adam@tahoe.co.nz

Why should you sponsor me?
- Your logo will be spilt all over the Porsche.
- I write a blog which is viewed by literally 1000's of people which I will be using to promote you.
- My website www.tahoe.co.nz will be updated with information and link to our sponsors.
- 50+ Supercars travelling through many New Zealand towns and cities WILL get a lot of interest!

Cheers

Adam
