Like any country town QB has its rich person parts, but it also has some NQR areas and I doubt they will ever change. ie parts of the dandenong area in melbourne has been and aways will be a crap place.

A good attitude does not equate to dollars. Its heaps easier for a couple to buy a 3 bedroom house, infact I'd say they're the only people who really can afford it in the current market. I think that is just basic math. What I find most bemusing is that I have a thread on buying a shitting...

Nah you had a go at me for saying I couldn't afford to buy a HOUSE. Now you're talking about units etal, which really have nothing to do with what I intially said.

Well the bottom line is that a house will cost around 380k, which is currently around 700 per week in repayments, if rates are to rise, this could well become higher than my wage (~1000 per week). I don't know what part of your post will change that very simple mathematical calculation. I...

Yeah true but odds says it didn't sell for 265 and more like 300. It can certainly be done and I'm optimistic that I'll own my own home (for living purposes ) in the future but when you consider that if you wage is 1000 per week is and the reypayments are 700 a week, that doesn't give you much...
