Hi all, thanks for your replies, info and suggestions. I allready know that to do most of professional work i will need a certification, i will stick to the work i can do with out certification, at least at first, maybe if things go well i will take courses and get certified, but in the mean time i would like to make some money to help with the expenses we will have, i have properties back here in Argentina and they give us a monthly rent but i cant rely 100% on that thanks to our third country minded goverment and population (right now we are unable to buy dollars for example, we can only use dollars with a credit card and the goverment charges you a 15% tax that you never get back ...) i´m counting with about 2 k AUD per month for sure, and maybe 3 k with some luck, that plus some work i can do i think we will be ok, but the main question is, will i have work
About the repair shop, now i can almost discard it thanks to your info skani , but maybe i can still fix some things like lawn movers, etc ... but not opening a shop
On the other hand, i know a handyman makes most small building work, we build slightly different right here but im used to work with wood, bricks, cement, and steel, right now im finishing building 3 departments to rent them.
So my main fear is that my profession is in no need, or that i will enter an over crowded profession. what can you tell me guys ? its easy to find someone to fix your things at home ? i have read a handyman charges between 20 and 50 dollars per hour, depending on the work, is this true ?
Thanks all in advance, sorry for the long post and crappy english ,
