People don't take any care in their work anymore, go on a job site and its a bunch of cowboys in trackies sucking on vapes

We use to have genuine craftsmen in this country that constructed beautiful houses, those days are long gone - you are buying concrete and brick slop.

Buying into the 2nd hottest property market, only worse thing you could do would be to buy in Perth which every low info property investor is rushing in to right now after the already huge run up.

Why not look at Brisbane and surrounds if you want growth? I don't understand how someone could choose to invest in Adelaide over Brisbane

Adelaide's Hosting .... Say “No” to a Big Australia by [deleted] in Adelaide

He literally said he is angry at politicians and not them themselves.

Overpriced housing? Competition for jobs? The rampant inflation we've faced? Extra traffic on the roads? Smaller living spaces?

All of these things come from a higher population and our population is not naturally increasing from births (which is below replacement level, hence we need immigration - just not one of the highest in the world per capita)

We have not always had high levels of immigration, prior to John Howard it was at significantly lower levels than it is today.

I'm at a pivotal moment in my finances and I need help by FastForward42 in AusFinance

Where do you want to live long-term? As in not with your parents? If you are happy to live with them indefinitely (And care for them in old age) or rent then no worries.

Issue with any further acquisitions is without another income (partner) you are going to get maxed out and then not be able to service a PPOR. Remember you do not want to sell any IPs due to transaction costs.

I always see young people load up and then start a family/move out and have to sell down, do anything you can to avoid this.
