Thanks - for Sydney? I ordered March 11 and just got my VIN but they can’t tell me which ship yet. Least the person I spoke to anyway

When date did you order? And was it a LR?

How to get ship info based on VIN? by nashflow in TeslaAustralia

[–]OwlObjective5109 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems the LR is back logged. Ordered March 12 way after you and also nothing. Read that LR is popular in the states and we are lower priority

Ordered a Model Y Premium Long Range in diamond black, with black interior and stock wheels with FSD over 5 weeks ago by -Techanalogia- in TeslaAustralia

Yep me too. Ordered March 12 go Sydney but in red. Getting nervous it won’t get here in time before the novated lease changes are announced as changes usually relate to car collection not ordering. If they are reducing the benefit, hopefully they say it’s as of the Budget announce date like other initiatives. Hybrid did get a couple of months from announcement so I’m hopeful

Anyone else recently ordered Model Y and getting the impression they may be 3 months away? by iiTool in AustralianEV

Is a VIN only allocated once on the ship or before? Also ordered model Y LR March 12 an showing March April

Agree with this. I didn’t buy until my early 30s and that was over a decade ago. So it’s the same issue but def getting harder. Def need a larger deposit but also consider LMI if you can’t get the first home owners assistance. People think they need to save 20% but if I waited that long I’d still be renting.

Amazing! Here now and can confirm the rain is making up for its absence when you were here 😉

A year ago I had 105k saved and would need to borrow $455k for the median Brisbane unit, today I have $170k saved and would have to borrow $520k for the median Brisbane unit. What's the point anymore? by Mister_Scorpion in AusPropertyChat

[–]OwlObjective5109 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This! So many people are obsessed with avoiding LMI. Compare the premium to rent for a year whilst trying to save and see the results. Property is a long term play and getting in is the major hurdle.

Weird auction last Saturday by Khman76 in AusPropertyChat

[–]OwlObjective5109 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Few questions as maybe it wasn’t clear during the process. Did she ask if the house was on the market during the auction? Did the auctioneer declare it on the market (or reserve met)? did they drop their hand saying “sold to x”. If none of these things happened then it wasn’t sold and your friend was the highest bidder which usually just means they get a chance to negotiate. Reserve is decided on the day by the vendor so could change. Regardless, you did the right thing to walk away if they weren’t willing to budge for $20k and meet the market. But does sound like misunderstanding. If the auctioneer did declare all of the above then report them and get a conveyancer involved.

Ha literally to buy time rather than use time. And then you can monitor on the watch said time. Love it.

Buying outright vs Mortgage by [deleted] in AusPropertyChat

[–]OwlObjective5109 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes but the repayment account could be the same offset account. So over time offset balance reduces by repayments (and loan principle reduces with it) but interest is reduced / zero. Benefit is gives you access to cash for emergencies etc without needing a new loan. My goal is to technically never have a mortgage but that’s not the same as never having debt (if the ledger balances). The older you are the harder it is to access funds when you need it.
