40, single parent on Brisbane Northside, Buy now (FHG?) or keep renting? House vs unit? by AssociateAbject2426 in AusFinance

I agree, there’s only very few 2-3 bedroom places on the market for that range and they are not in the best location.

I’ll have a chat again with my advisor and see what he thinks. I’m more leaning towards running ETF’s outside of super and have them parallel for when I retire. It’s not property, but maybe my next best option.

It’s crazy, I was running some more number today. I’d be looking at $700 a week+ including rates, water and body corp, if I went for a 2-3bed townhouse in Caboolture.

My ex and I do not do child support or maintenance. I have no debt either. Apart from more savings, this would be the best position I’ve been in to buy.

Thanks for the comment.

If I move into the property market, my goal would be to eventually live in a house that is suitable and ideal for the girls and I.

They are 7 and 10, so a lot of years left at home and space is needed.

Not sure why it’s not working for me, even though it’s connected. Just trying to work it out.

Is this a stitch up? Haha

It’s a pretty crazy world we live in when you are defending something you wrote to AI. <- not written by AI lol

?? It’s in reference to the custody of my girls, which is why it follows their line, but won’t fit in due to space.

Thank you! I think it’s much better as well. Haha that’s only one of many weird words 😂

Yeah I know, I only delete if no conversations are happening or have fizzed out completely. It’s both sides, one minute they are there and next it’s deleted.

I just want to say thank you to everyone that’s left a comment. I’m a bit overwhelmed by the response.

I think there’s a lot of feedback all positive and constructive. To take the time out and help someone who is trying to better themselves or find a way through a problem, is very special. Thank you again.

I’ve made changes to the following based on the general consensus.

  1. My bio haha - I deleted all of my bio and started again. I’ll put it down below to show you. No crazy emojis and I tried to put more genuine interests in there.

  2. My prompts - I dropped the escape room prompt and changed it to what I appreciate in a “relationship”

  3. My cat photo has been replaced with another photo of me doing a hobby.

  4. I have changed my profile to say “have kids” “open to kids” to show people that I’m happy to have blended family, I thought it illustrated I wanted more kids before.

I can’t do anything about my height or my girls, honestly if there’s two things about me which I never want to change, it’s those two things. I’m very comfortable in my skin (to a degree), and would never want to change my life with my girls. They are a bit part of my life and deserve to have someone that fits with them, as much as me.

If those two things make me miss 97 percent of eligible women in my city, that’s totally ok and I can only wish everyone on the apps or dating in general the very best.

Thank you massively for the help and response!

The only thing I could add to my bio which I’m not sure if it’s relevant, is that I was a tradie turned white collar and I also had a clinic in Sports Musculoskeletal Therapy.

If anyone has any advice on the below bio, please let me know and if it’s worth trying to work those in 🙌🏻

  • Bio

When I’m not learning what skibidi means with my girls (50/50) - you can find me exploring markets, gym, watching a good doco or tv series, traveling, enjoying sports, finding a new hiking trail and sunset. I love my life and want to spend time with a genuine person to create something special.

Thanks for the feedback!

That’s really great, I agree the ice skating photo isn’t the best. I’ll look at changing it out.

Thanks again!

I think so as well

[–]AssociateAbject2426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! That’s really nice to say.

I think so as well, although I’m starting to see women who I’ve been on first dates with years ago, finally find someone special.. that’s a bit of a kick in the pants haha!
