Haha, don't know why you're so surprised? Most property managers are complete and utter !@#$s... they always say the place is in perfect condition on the inspection checklist no matter what state the place is in. If your PM is too lazy to take photos, or the place is in such a state they don't...

Guess I'd better make the trek out there then...

lol @ raising rent in Mount Druit... sounds like a good way to send people in closer to the city.

That was terrible... share price movement doesn't correlate with the performance of all those companies. BHP actually posted record profits, along with Fortescue and RIO. Maybe they're under-valued? BHP on a PE ratio of 8.xx is VERY tempting, especially when you consider their gearing ratio...

Grow a pair, for christ's sake.

I would say he overpaid for the building of the house by at least $100k.

sounds like your PM has done the right thing, it takes a while to go to tribunal. it doesn't happen overnight. You could always rock up with a few mates and a baseball bat I suppose, but so long as you're aware of the legalities involved with that which would probably include a goal term. Good...

Rent is going up more than $10/wk.

Hahaha.. really? Sydney infrastructure is ****ed.

There is still a lot of planned expansion by the likes of Fortescue, BHP and RIO in the Pilbara region. I suspect we haven't seen the peak yet.

The people who just moved in the unit next to me got a friend with a van to help them move their big stuff. It ain't rocket science to move yourself instead of paying some people off a boat who don't speak a word of English $100+/hour to move your stuff. Another neighbour told me she keeps...

People really believe this housing shortage stuff?

Of course I do.

Nope. I have a truck license so my costs to move are minimal, maybe $2-300 tops when I get my Internet reconnected, etc.

I am renting my bathroom out to a Chinese student.

30-40% of the banks' offshore credit funds has effectively dried up... the rest of the world is entering a period of deleveraging, credit is drying up and becoming more expensive. Do you think our banks are immune to it when they fund 30-40% of their books offshore? This article has some...

Yes, just because I rent means that owning property is mutually exclusive. :rolleyes:

What problems have I brought on myself, lizzie? Please tell me since I seem to be unaware.

Who he is? I have no idea who he is..

I'm in a block of units renting for $300/wk.. been here 2 years. As soon as the rent goes up from $300, people up & move. There is only 1 tenant who has been here longer than me. I got my rental notice increase about a month ago... true to form, I'll be shooting through too. Can't justify...
