This is really pissing me off.
I want to buy a house. But I listen to Keen and hear about all the doom and gloom for house prices in coming months. So keep thinking I will hold off.
Every weekend I find something I like. But the price is right up there, a bit of a stretch. So I think to myself, I'll be able to get this place in a few months time for $50,000+ less. But two weeks later the place has sold for about the original asking price. Happening again and again right now.
I think house prices should come down. They are definitely too high. But the thing is, I am beginning to think they are just not going to.
If Keen is wrong, and I miss the boat, I will feel like suing !
It's a liability not an asset. If you don't own something outright it is a liablity.And there's the problem...u want something, its personal and emotional.
Your looking at it as a house not an asset.
prospector...I thought stamp duty was abolished in most states for fhb's up to a certain level...its not something that affects me, so am not sure

hello,

I want house prices to come down further.Along with the exorbitant rents charged by the fat greedy owners.

Maybe a buy in 12 months !
so your a professor now AND you have followers! Talk abut an ego
You know there's something wrong with the market when people are actually listening to Robots.
One story from the Great Depression was when a stockbrokers' shoe shine boy was giving him stock tips, he then knew it was a time to get out of the market
If Australian housing is rightly priced, why do federal and state governments need first home grants and various incentives from different states?
If first home buyers can't afford housing, doesn't that tell us it's over priced? Why is the need to manipulate the price? Why not let the market decide?
What would happen to the economy when house prices slide?
Yes, so many rhetorical questions and yet such simple answers.
On a side note, why doesn't the government start a first car buyers grant? A$5000 payment to any secondhand car that you buy or $10000 for a new one. That way we keep old car prices artificially high. Your old $500 Datsun 120Y is now worth at least $5500.
I'm joking by the way.
havent you heard, regulated markets are all the rage,
free markets are so last year.
