I'm looking for a new rental in the next few months. Can't wait to put in a few offers ~$100/week or more under the advertised prices and watch the REA squirm a bit and wait to hear back from the desperate landlord who's just praying to fill the vacancy so he can stave off bankruptcy awhile longer.

It’s funny I heard the same thing about house prices during the Asian financial crisis

Then the 2005 recession

Then the GFC

Then the financial systems inquiry

It’ll be different this time though

I promise

what's it like knowing you're in debt and have to keep payments coming for the next 25 years just to make the banks rich? Also how much money have you lost during the pandemic?

I couldn't care less about house prices, rent prices are purely a function of supply and demand.

God forbid someone actually invests their money wisely into real estate to have safe future instead of relying on superannuation in their old age. Now the government comes in and says fuk your investment, here's a law that says you're an involuntary philanthropist and have people who made chit decisions in their life to live on your money for free.

You keep posting ITT, and I have a feeling you’re itching to get called out so you can post your bank balance or something.

You have my permission boomer, post it and be free.

lol

it'd be much better if young adults couldn't move out of home until they're in a position to buy a place. people just in the city for a season or a couple of years for a job, they should have to buy a place too and sell it when they move. people trying to get away from an abusive spouse, only if they can afford to buy a new place.

need i continue?

god people's thinking is so one dimensional.

I own my apartment, boomer.

I’m likely further ahead in life at 26 than you are at 40, I’m just not interested in making the lives of those less fortunate harder than they already are.

******* OP literally made a thread about slapping working people forced to live in some dilapidated chitholes into place because they tried to save some money in these hard times, and you’re here roving the thread in support.

Ironically most people on unemployment are making far more not working but they are blowing the extra cash from that and trump bux on Jordans or TVs or guns. Go look at every single Trumpbux thread on here. Only 2-3 said that money goes into savings. This is representative of our population

Ironically, that’s actually what I meant by the second part of that sentence. The vast majority of landlords I’ve met have been uneducated blue collar types that inherited a house, and then worked their way up to a few properties. In contrast, nearly all of my colleagues invest their savings in small businesses (laundromats, franchises) or personal ventures (my preferred choice).

I’m all for the working man getting ahead in life, but not by screwing over the working class.

It speaks volumes that you think renting out a parcel of land and collecting a check each month is comparable to providing a good or service where labor is involved.

Leave the thread and go gouge your 80-year-old tenant for an extra $200. You’re not doing the OP any favors here.

From the same article:

“ But people who have lost their jobs can find themselves stuck, with landlords unwilling to offer a rent reduction and no prospect of landing a new lease while unemployed.”

So in summary it must suck to suck

The reality is there's going to be a lot of pain out there and it's going to be shared around. Unemployment will be higher, rental vacancies will be higher, rents will be lower and house prices will be lower. Oh and my ETF prices are lower too lmao.

Real estate is a timeless method of investment. Why this simple fact rustles so many Miscers into talking about 'leeches' or 'jackboots' would mystify me unless I understood (as a landlord) just how many poors there are out there who'd rather buy the latest iPhone than have money to pay their rent.

More laws to protect the degenerate and people who do wrong. Under the guise of "Fairness" when the reality is, you don't own the property. Pay or you go away. Yeah landlords can be c*nts but at the end of the day it's still their property, you have to accept the negatives of renting not have a government that makes owning a home worse off and an owner not able to evict horrible tenants.
