Is there any work in airlie beach? Just using your post as a platform 9K, no offence intended.As I said previously guys, immigration is the cause of this because sydney IS the main port of entry.
Have a look at, say, airlie beachwhere nobody is migrating to and homeowners (sellers) are absolutely shitting themselves right now.
It's a very simple immigration driven artificial supply/demand imbalance.
Of course not, they own investment properties themselves.Will the politicians change anything? I doubt it.
Given up with rentals. Sold one some time ago, scum tenants burnt another to the ground Deemed to be an country 18,iie the remanents ofthe house were 18" high. The third is a 4 brm on the farm and has been empty for 4 years now and will stay that way. Had my fill of whinging, whining, scum bag tenants sourced through real estate agents who only want to look after their own well being, not mine and hers.Emphasis mine.
I see more problems related to this.
ID theft and security is one and needs no further explanation.
The big one though is simply that life has taught me many times that job details and references mean somewhat less than nothing when it comes to the individual, how they behave, their ability to pay and so on.
Suppose that someone's worth a few $ million but for whatever reason needs to rent a place to live. A self-made millionaire so clearly they're no fool and they can afford the rent. But ask about their job and the answer, technically, may well be "unemployed" since they've no need to keep working. Ask for a reference and as an introvert who doesn't know many people they're left pondering who they'd ask to write them one?
Meanwhile there's someone with a respectable sounding job title that's really just some fancy words, they're practically broke, can't manage finances if their life depends on it, has a party at home every weekend but they're armed with a reference written by a mate and that's who gets the property.
Landlords and tenants are both losing from this system. Decent tenants who can't get anywhere to live and landlords who can't find a decent tenant who doesn't trash the place.
We had one like this a while back - didn't burn it to the ground but did trash the place.Given up with rentals.

I was talking to the bloke over the road yesterday, exactly the same story, he has a rental it has just been trashed, so he is doing it up and selling it. Sounds like the frustration of tightening times, is manifesting itself in tenants getting angry. I haven't been in the rental game for 15 years, I have enough hassle looking after two daughters houses and my own.We had one like this a while back - didn't burn it to the ground but did trash the place.
You didn't have landlord's insurance?
not a completely bad thing Chinese growth was unsustainable in earlier timesChinese exports down 6.8%, 4th month in a row.... Hmmmm
Sadly 9k didn't take it out. Being a novice in those days thought and thought wrongly the R/E agent was organising it.We had one like this a while back - didn't burn it to the ground but did trash the place.

very much a lucky dip with R/E agents ( a good one would have alerted you on that i.e. we sell you that , or you should consider some )Sadly 9k didn't take it out. Being a novice in those days thought and thought wrongly the R/E agent was organising it.
And after experience with Terri Scheer, not so sure you would get much anyway...Sadly 9k didn't take it out. Being a novice in those days thought and thought wrongly the R/E agent was organising it.
so now, after the raise: where do we get the best saving accounts now?
check around the various 'bonus saver' schemes ( watching out for various 'bait and switch tactics ' )And after experience with Terri Scheer, not so sure you would get much anyway...

Sadly what happend all those yars ago, it was a case of I'll take your money and do little to nothing to earn it.very much a lucky dip with R/E agents ( a good one would have alerted you on that i.e. we sell you that , or you should consider some )
Now I'm just wondering if the China disease has finally come to bite them on the bum.Chinese exports down 6.8%, 4th month in a row.... Hmmmm
Those that traverse around on Harleys and the odd Indian are I am informed used frequently to get the required debt settled.The thing is trawler, if they were decent/upstanding members of society, they probably wouldn't be renters.
The amount of genuinely poor(er) types that are actually decent people and just less than well off is probably about a tenth of the market. The rest of them, well, I can completely understand why slumlords just send a couple of guys over or whatever when they need to.
Yep, goods in recession, services in ridiculous inflation.Chinese exports down 6.8%, 4th month in a row.... Hmmmm
One could say a bull in the china shop!!!!!Yep, goods in recession, services in ridiculous inflation.
China's boned.
Believe me, it's the only thing they respond to. The scum know the legal system ridiculously well. Most of them are already semi-trained paralegals.Those that traverse around on Harleys and the odd Indian are I am informed used frequently to get the required debt settled.
Not that I ever availed myself of the services of these types.
