"The only point I am trying to make, is that it is wrong of you to blame people's unrealistic expectations as the only reason they cannot afford to buy a house.

I don't understand why you cannot see that house price rises are way above normal, and that wages haven't gone anywhere near keeping up. If ou don't believe me then study the ABS website for a few hours."


yes moon I take it all on board.

And no I dont think that peoples unrealistic expectations are the only reason.....there are others sure.

And good to hear you have done well

House prices way above normal??....
yeah but whats normal??......a line on a chart.

Sure some properties are overpriced........and some are not.

Why not buy the ones that arent??

Seems so simple to me

The house that is $300k yesterday
is $390k today (30% increase)

So on a 90% lend you need a $39k deposit instead of $30k

Is it really that much different?

And an extra $150 week repayment...well you want the house so bad u have to pay up.

People are so fixated with buying a house.

just rent then.....its cheaper anyway.

Ask for a 10 year lease....u wont have to move for a while

What if property prices dont come down 20/30%

What then?

lol
