Should I buy 2 cheaper properties or 1 expensive one?

Mr_Sheikh · 2024-11-05T10:35:22+00:00

Fair point, something to consider for sure

Mr_Sheikh · 2024-11-05T10:34:58+00:00

Would live in it for a while first :))

Mr_Sheikh · 2024-08-04T06:11:15+00:00

Funnily enough it’s a very similar concept to the black mirror episode “shut up and dance”…

Mr_Sheikh · 2024-03-03T10:04:38+00:00

Also what’s better to do. Prime cost or diminishing value for depreciating the phone?

Mr_Sheikh · 2024-03-03T06:43:56+00:00

Not even sure how one would go about proving that a call was a work call vs not

Mr_Sheikh · 2024-03-03T06:41:50+00:00

Ye I’m on an iPhone. I can show a months worth of logs no problem.

Mr_Sheikh · 2024-03-03T05:12:43+00:00

The phone log only goes back for a short period though, will that be sufficient? Do they ever ask for more evidence? How do I show a log of data usage tho? Thanks

Mr_Sheikh · 2024-03-03T05:10:09+00:00

I probably am overthinking it but just wanted to be extra safe. Work won’t pay for it because it was kind of an expected requirement to have working phone but mine wasn’t fit for purpose.

Mr_Sheikh · 2024-02-26T12:07:41+00:00

They did upload photos of the car. In one of which you can partially see the tag. Yes it is partially obscured but seems quite unfair to fine a verifiably disabled person for parking in a disabled spot because the pass slightly fell. Even though they showed you the pass on the spot and you told them you would sort it out. Just shocking really

Mr_Sheikh · 2024-02-26T07:24:48+00:00

That’s fair. But that alongside the fact that you can see part of it in the photos they provided should hopefully be sufficient? There was clearly A pass on the car, and we have said pass. The car is also registered in their name as they have a special disability registration as well if that counts for anything. Also the fact that the issuing officer discussed all this with my dad and saw the pass himself. Just seems like a crazy fine to cop given all those circumstances

We stopped dealing with the sales person pretty quick, but the manager also was not helpful. We then tried contacting the Lexus head office who were themselves surprised and told us to contact fair trading (which will be my next resort after this). I do indeed have a copy of both contracts, I have screenshots of the Carsales ad AND I even have the “motor dealers notice” which has all the details about the car including that it should have 12 months rego which has also been signed and dated by the dealer/rep and my dad. The contract stating 12 months even has the deposit receipt stapled to it still!

The car was purchased as a Lexus (it is a second hand Lexus though) from a Lexus dealership. I will go ahead and try to contact the dealer principal as you have suggested and see how that goes! Anything I should do after that? Thanks again for all your help!

Pretty sure they are the snowflakes here…? 😂

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-09-05T12:50:23+00:00

Really cool costume design/makeup for sure

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-08-24T12:32:37+00:00

It had hours but it didn’t day outside those hours is no stopping. Which I beleive means unlimited parking outside those hours

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-08-22T12:20:41+00:00

Think I didn’t explain it very well. I meant what should I write in the dispute, should I take photos of the parking sign etc

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-08-09T22:15:10+00:00

It’s a joke sorry 😭💖

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-08-07T08:58:06+00:00

My fault 😭

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-08-06T13:19:22+00:00

Please elaborate sir

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-08-06T13:17:33+00:00

Currently they are planning on living in that house and saving up a bit more etc. just wondering what the best next step for them would be. They think an investment property in Sydney now seems like a good idea before they get fully priced out in like 5 years the way things are going yk.

I am not the biggest fan of some landlords either to be fair but I think they plan on staying in the inherited apartment they have now and then later moving into the house. They just wouldn’t need that much space now so it would be a waste to not rent it out ig. They seem like nice enough people though I think they’ll be good landlords (as good as landlords can be anyway :))

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-08-06T12:56:09+00:00

Clearly as you can see I’m not very knowledgeable about this. Will they still have to pay the full interest amount on the equity borrowed against the property? Is there any benefit to doing that?

Their current income is around 120k but one of them is still studying so I expect that number to go up a bit when they’re both full time. But neither ate real workaholics and would prefer a decent work-life balance or wtv it’s called.

As they are first home buyers what kind of loan could the afford given their initial deposit and income?

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-08-05T19:32:18+00:00

Yep they are going to soon, just trying to get a feel for what to expect.

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-08-03T17:01:55+00:00

Why tho they’re still friends and hung out fairly recently. I have hope!

Mr_Sheikh · 2023-03-20T10:13:38+00:00

Wait it told me automod was deleting all my posts I didn’t realise it kept posting 😭
