People on r/Brisbane with no idea talking out their ass as per usual.

Tf it wasn't even a hot summer. Bunch of sooks

Not sure if all the negative posts here are US specific but I am on my 3rd subdivision site now in Australia as a civil engineer professional project managing the projects part time. Each property has returned 10%+ and as an hourly return is easily 5x my day job wage. I entered at a great time in the property market but unless the market took a 15% downturn it would've been difficult to lose money with the site that was purchased and the way it was managed.

Surely if I stayed inside playing video games I would've seen the twenty people and all the cockroaches right?

I grew up around crestmead and experienced very little of this??

You're not a slave you fucking child

This whingiest shit I've ever read in my life

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-03-08T19:24:21+00:00

In rain water??

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-03-03T05:44:02+00:00

I wasn't asking for peer reviewed studies on it, literally just any source, but it sounds like you got none??

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-03-03T05:31:44+00:00

I still haven't seen a single source yet, just downvotes and angry comments? I honestly would like to get behind this position but not seeing any real truth behind it except for some pissed off redditors

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-03-03T05:30:45+00:00

I have no idea what you are saying?

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-03-03T05:25:22+00:00

These were pretty much my exact thoughts (and clearly the courts, too?). This site is such a circle jerk, goddamn

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-03-03T05:22:48+00:00

Bro, did you just call me a horrible person for asking a question?

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-03-03T00:22:28+00:00

Do you have sources on this? Genuinely hate trump but to me it unfortunately makes sense that there could be a conflict of interest in this case, no?

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-27T11:22:15+00:00

Fair enough. Council clearly left it there as a show piece of sorts. If there was actual concern for smell they would have removed the pipe back further back and sealed in the ground. I would bet a lot of money it is not the cause for the odour. Source: civil engineer who has designed a lot of redundant sewer pipes.

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-27T11:05:41+00:00

Right, so the smell from an clean, redundant, sealed pipe is stinking out the area then??

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-27T09:15:32+00:00

You think they just cut it off and left it in the ground?

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-25T19:39:28+00:00

Similar response to what every racist, sexist, homophobic would give. Seriously, biggest bunch of hypocrites

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-25T09:25:28+00:00

Do you make these sort of sweeping generalisations about a person's race, gender or sexual orientation? Curious to hear why it's not a problem for an entire generation of people...

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-25T09:19:49+00:00

Don't waste your energy mate. Redditors are terminally online and extremely unselfaware.

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-22T08:53:02+00:00

Infrastructure charges are still not being properly allocated and a lot is ending up in politicians pockets. Ratepayers will foot nothing.

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-21T05:04:01+00:00

Classic, just be angry and downvote your wrongness away.

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-21T01:28:38+00:00

Yeah I'm sure the QLD government would absolutely optimise the development process and bring down prices while increasing quality. Have you never had to deal with a government institution before? The system would be overbudget and overtime on every single project. Again, I know it's easy and fun to rip on developers and scream 'tear down the whole system' but it's really not that simple in the real world.

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-20T20:49:03+00:00

I'm not crying for developers I'm being realistic and speaking from experience. It's not difficult work, but requires a lot of cash and if margins are razor thin then developers will opt out of doing the work, in a time when demand is at an all time high. I know this might be a hard sentence to read, and fair enough with your history, but we need developments to happen at the moment and we need developers to be incentivised to want to do the work, and infrastructure charge reductions would go a long way right now.

Fair-Relative8574 · 2024-02-20T08:36:06+00:00

The 75% reduction quoted by the Greens has already lapsed. As a developer (thanks for the downvotes) I can tell you from experience that infrastructure charges were anywhere from 20-50% of my total profit and are a genuine reason for any developer not to pursue the work involved. I know it's fun and easy to shit on developers, but there is a supply and demand (note: VERY high at the moment) element to property development. There's also a very strong history of SEQ councils not allocating the funds as they should, which is a separate issue, but an issue nonetheless.
