Breach 6 Offending email request to the company lawyer
G’day Maggie, I am writing in the hope that we can get this present situation sorted so that we both get to
keep a roof over our heads. I also feel it is important for our children to feel that they have a home base that they can return to whenever they need to;; somewhere to ‘dump’ their stuff, somewhere to settle a while and take stock if necessary. I myself need somewhere I can settle with my stuff to be able to continue with and complete all the big and little projects I have begun and want to get finished. You also, no doubt,
want somewhere you can be among your stuff: somewhere you can empty a container and get among it all without feeling you’ll be out on the street. We’ve both already experienced this – it’s a stupid situation considering the properties we own between us. We should be able to reach an agreement whereby we can keep ourselves accommodated and service the ongoing mortgages. The table below shows relevant values of properties If the properties were all to be sold up we would receive 145 000 each. You would be liable for the mortgage you took out on Vic Place after we separated. $145,000 is a nice little sum but insufficient to get a roof over one’s head. If instead we kept the properties (excluding Vic place) we would be much better off in terms of having secure housing. All we have to do is to be able to find the weekly repayments (basically the same as rent.) If you were satisfied with this arrangement we would only have to decide which property we each have. The following pages outline my thoughts on each property and maintenance done and required. So that you can be aware of the consequences of each property. Give it all some thought and let’s see if we can successfully get a roof over our heads. If we can first reach agreement ourselves on this we can save heaps by not having to divert money to solicitors. Then if necessary we can have a solicitor draw up an agreement to legalise it all.Regards, John Now both properties have drawbacks: Lake Rd requires a lot of mowing and gardening which I find difficult to keep up with sometimes it’s always too hot or too cold. I find the factories very convenient to be able to do my work and store my stuff. If I had to leave here I would need to find somewhere similar in which to work and store goods and materials which may not have accommodation attached. My income could not cover the outgoings in that situation. Further, if we had to leave here there are huge amounts of ‘junk’ owned by BSA that would have to be removed. That would cost somebody a lot of money – money we don’t have. I could do a bit of moving however this would take some time. I estimate that it would take me 6 months at the right day time temperatures to remove myself and my gear if there were somewhere close to move to. Lavett Rd I could move to Lavett Rd. I quite like it there. It’s much healthier there away from the dust and the fumes of the brickworks and requires much less mowing and gardening (which I find difficult to keep up with at Lake Rd). However, there are no sheds or workshops there and I don’t want to clutter up the Maritime Data Buoys & Barriers Co Page 48 of 64
