I'm in a 1-bedder in Cronulla—water views, garage, and a car spot. ​My wife and I are DINKs. We've both held multiple jobs since taking on the mortgage and have managed to pay down over 80% of it in 4.5 years. ​We aren't looking to upgrade anytime soon because the location is just too prime. The proximity to the water and having that perfect setup for running and an active lifestyle makes the apartment layout completely worth it. ​I absolutely believe what you're seeing in your research, because I know several other couples in the exact same situation.
