A rainy afternoon in Hong Kong and a fantastic book.

Hard to believe this is the first book by this Aussie author.

Thank you for a gripping novel. Hong Kong is clearly a city you know and love. Your book instantly bought me back to my memories of HK - the Aussie Consul-General residence, the Matilda, Wah Kee on weekends and, of course,the steamy heat.

I cannot remember the last time I read a book in four days and I’m looking forward to reading more from you.

An excellent article about Sydney’s Inner West and how tightly held properties are.
Michael Salvartis from Real Property Buyers and I have often chat about this. He knows the whole area from a family perspective as well as for investors, even while still buying in other parts of Sydney.

I’ve used buyers agents before. I’m a big fan of good ones that know their stuff! One saved me over $200,000 on my home!
Well worth it, isn’t it!

These inner west units are designed to feel like standalone homes. Little wonder it is hard to buy in.

There are people you meet that are great and then there are those that never leave you. Your mates overseas will be closer than other friends.
Why?
They are quickly the closest friendships you will ever have.. and often naughty and too much fun.
