They had a quote for $80,000 to fix it up and they did it themselves and it looks stunning. Whit walls and grey floor boards because the boards were old and mismatched.

Especially with a vet school down the road and the possibility to rent it to someone who might have horses.

Not to mention and nice little reno fund coming in with the rent. Enjoy this cooler weather and seeing everything greening up. I myself am just working on staying sane for the last few days of the school holidays. mel xBungalowgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03591099131301027446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7633066708385692057.post-62542991786549216712013-01-24T22:06:19.012-08:002013-01-24T22:06:19.012-08:00It all sounds great - it would be brilliant to get...It all sounds great - it would be brilliant to get some income to help you with the big house.

Get organised before you start. Get an ABN. Set up a small home based business. There is also free help from the government when you set up a small business. It might be beneficial to set up a family trust.<br />There are marvellous advantages to renting out this cottage and agisting horses. You may be able to claim lots of the renovation materials on your tax. You may need special insurances. You may need to check your plumbing and water supply. Tax deductions.<br />If you get a Working With Children Clearance Card you could take in some childcare clients because some of the students may have families too. <br />A friend of mine built a huge shed and babysits caravans. Steady income with little outlay other than insurance.MLM247https://www.blogger.com/profile/06365562372896637044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7633066708385692057.post-73049251678794149662013-01-24T16:27:20.015-08:002013-01-24T16:27:20.015-08:00It's so very cute!
