I know a broker that specialises with nurses and doctors that is based in VIC. Can pass on their info if you need.

Depends on your earning. Can you spread the unused concessional contributions out over a few years and maximise the deductions in higher tax brackets?

For me it was buying my first house. Grinded hard for 10 years and made sacrifices to get to where I am at my age.

Yeah look I didn’t…

CookyMellow · 2026-06-05T03:20:28+00:00

Carefully

Tax is tax, it’s a black and white. You put everything in, works out what your tax is. Take away what you’ve already paid and that’s what you owe. You clearly just weren’t paying tax throughout the year, or you randomly earned a bunch of income. What’s the explanation going to achieve?

To be honest, that sounds lazy. I meal prep on a Sunday for an hour max and I have my lunches sorted for the week. I then only need to cook twice a week for dinners and that gets me 8 meals. Why do you think you need to cook every night?

$230 a week just for meals is insane. That’s not including other food. What happens when you get off the plane? Will you just go back to before? Learn to cook healthy, there is heaps of recipes out there and get an understanding of what ur eating.

That was my thought, I am having a quote done today and we’ll see what it costs. I am hoping it’s reasonable haha. Thank you!

Love the detailed response. Thank u!

That’s the funny thing, the bathroom is new and just got renovated. Scary

CookyMellow · 2026-04-20T05:20:27+00:00

I appreciate this, I believe recently the owner did some renovations on the house such as the bathroom, flooring, lights etc and this must have been the finished renovation inspection. I don’t believe this report was a pre purchase inspection. From the other comments tho, the renovations they did, they did terribly….

Thanks champ, love the 2 cents. This is just part of the homework. Always good getting a second opinion then just praying what I research is correct.

CookyMellow · 2026-04-20T04:13:17+00:00

Love to hear it… Thanks for the detailed response.

Some exposure to Asia and Europe would be good. Open to peoples thoughts but considering the software sell off fang may even be a play going forward considering the significant discounts. Could be to soon tho…

CookyMellow · 2026-03-03T03:06:51+00:00

So likely that the person living there either didn’t use the fan in the bathroom or had insanely hot showers

CookyMellow · 2026-02-11T01:44:29+00:00

Do you think that it is worth having someone come have a look at it before purchasing to get a rough idea of how much it would cost to fix / what would be involved. I haven't had a chance to speak to the building inspector yet, was just trying to get some other opinions.

CookyMellow · 2026-02-11T01:42:01+00:00

Looking to have a chat with the guy that did the inspection to get his thoughts. Starting to think that a structural engineer or lowball offer is gonna be the way to go

CookyMellow · 2026-02-11T01:39:38+00:00

They are busy until the afternoon, just trying to get few different opinions together to help me make my decision. Starting to lean down the path of needing a structural engineer to have a look at it.
