What are your longer term plans. No good buying a place like that if you wish to get married in the next 5 years and you need the first home buyers grant to even buy the property.
Can you swing a cat in there?
Dont you need to live in there to get the grant?
Sounds like a hotel room. i reckon you are better off looking out St Kilda/Elwood or further down the bay than a ****ty 44m2 apartment.
