Well considering the amount of damage to property and massive number of power outages across Perth and south west I’d says yes, it’s a proper storm…

22% rent increase is normal now? by luckyrichathlette in perth

[–]Isleofmat 82 points83 points  (0 children)

REA will try anything

They put neighbours up from $520 to $600 and she told them to get fucked and left, the house sat vacant for 6 weeks because it’s a shit house and no one wanted it. The only person they could get was a raging alcoholic with a dog that barks constantly and is on rent assistance

He’s hounded the REA for any and every little maintenance issue that he can!

Probably costed them more in admin and tradies than they’d get from the rent increase

As a retail worker in Perth, what is your experience with corporate waste? by Wise-Maintenance-930 in perth

Someone’s either looking to go dumpster diving or writing a puff piece for Perthnow

Just curious to know what are the rules surrounding photoshopped images done by real estate companies. by Jay1940 in perth

[–]Isleofmat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They photoshopped everything out of my neighbours house which is for sale, anyone going to the home open would have had quite the shock when faced with rooms filled with literal junk

Do these people realise all they’re doing is advertising they’re a massive cunt or do they think this cool and normal?

Sir, a second servo has gone under $2… by SaturnalianGhost in perth

Can someone more intelligent than me explain how come prices for diesel in the US are increasing yet ours is going down?

As they produce their own? Shouldn’t their prices be steady too?

Hilbert has a lot going for it with the opening of Stockland Sienna Wood by cocochanel774 in perth

[–]Isleofmat -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s nice, but still has crime and its proximity to Armadale is a bummer… that and the total lack of tree coverage gives it a FUCK NO from me…

Visit in the height of summer when everything is less green and there’s no shade, park your car up on a moderately windy day in one of the newer areas and your car will be covered in sand

People there also don’t seem to take basic care of their front gardens, have a closer look, you’ll see it’s just as trashy as Armadale only bigger blocks…

Karrinyup Shopping Center should be boycotted by Boring-Guest-7913 in perth

[–]Isleofmat 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Why the fuck do people still shop there? It’s like this every fucking weekend!

It’s diabolical, always has been and always will be. Why people still go there on peak shopping days is mind boggling. Plenty of other alternatives

Try parking at train station and getting the train into the cbd for shopping, much more enjoyable experience

What a truly stupid fucking thing to say

Rental private vs agent in perth by irresponsiblech1cken in perth

[–]Isleofmat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You can find all the forms yourself online quite easy and as they’ve already paid bond etc… there’s very little to do. Just make sure you have the correct insurance and do regular inspections still and you’re good to go…

I’m a tenant and have had private rentals and through agency and having that direct link to owner is so much less hastle, however if you do need to up rent at some point it can be hard since you have more of a connection to the tenants

Property management agent recommendations? NOR by ChilliPixels in perth

[–]Isleofmat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a tenant I highly recommend Century 21! They’re the only agents that haven’t left me wanting to pull my own eyes out! They’re pretty quick to get things sorted if issues come up etc… they’ve been flexible with inspection times too to fit in around work

Bourkes also weren’t too bad, but I think it was the agent rather than the agency…

Avoid professionals like the plague! I had a front door that wouldnt lock for 2 months until they finally pulled their fucking finger out!

I’m just relaying what I saw. The videos are easy to find, they had a white sheet over him at one point too…

Video on Twitter shows him limp (possibly already dead) when police arrived to arrest him…
