Hi People.
I was just reading some Jon Giaan stuff about the US property markets and I also have some mixed US friends in general .
It's always sounded fascinating to me , so cheap in so many ways , so many options , variety , sounds about 1/4 of the prices of here over all , living , items , although some things seem about the same.
And then there's their property market , holy hell I mean 10 -20 and 30k houses.
This Giaan guy reckons a fully installed new kitchen is 800 bucks, reno tradies are dirt cheap .
So with our housing and cost of living prices being some of if not the dearest in the world - which many do say that , what exactly is it that makes us the lucky country ?
Obviously right now over there well, you may wish you were here but then eh , what if your into property , imagine , going there with our budgets we'd all be rich.
But then I suppose you'd have to be new at it or you'd be broke right now.
Another thought . What if you or I spend 10 or 20yrs collecting and building , and that happens here ? How do we safety net against that ?
If they can have it with over 300mil to house then how can we possibly have a shortage anyway with only 22mil ?
Cheers
