Allow me to introduce myself. I’ve been lurking theses forums for a year or two and have finally made a move and bought my first property. It’s a 2br, 1 bathroom unit in Sydney’s west. It’s currently my ppor so I can claim the fhog and I’m in the middle of renovating it. So far it’s going good; I plan to spend a total of 5k-10k on a new kitchen/carpet/paint/doors and general repairs.
The unit is a total of 60sqm and has 2 bedrooms, however the former owners being new immigrants to Australia with little money have erected a wall in the lounge room to create a 3rd bedroom. The wall is of decent construction quality, but the one flaw is that it goes straight through a window, cutting it in half and looks completely stupid. I have hit a wall in making a decision to remove this wall or not, as I see it really would not add any value and just consume time and resources. However I am concerned to the issues I may face in the future when I go to rent/sell this place.
