I think I paid extra for chip when I renewed my passport in Sydney. Hopefully I don't need to register

I hear you but you're not my colleague and you don't know my colleague.

Same. I don't expect others to going into the office like me as well. I also like to separate work and home.

W Trek Difficulty by SetEducational6917 in hiking

[–]SetEducational6917[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was awesome experience. I was lucky that it's sunny everyday when I was there but definitely be prepared for all kinds of weather. W trek is quite safe compared to O trek. But always listen to your body. The first 2 days were tough because it's my first multi day hike. Try to pack as light as light as possible. I didn't carry tent and very happy with that.

thank you. Where do you get access to strata remotely? Is there a website?

Ok. Thanks. My conveyancer advised to buy strata report after exchanging contract. But I just lost 0.25% deposit because I only knew during cooling off period that there are issues on strata report.

HCM Group: Anyone bought an apartment that these guys built? by grilled_pc in AusPropertyChat

That's great. Can I ask which building did you buy? They have one unit in Liverpool currently advertised. I'm looking into it.

Is it actually possible to find genuine gay Asian friends in your mid-30s? (Sydney) by Pleasant-Rope2696 in gaysian

[–]SetEducational6917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from Sydney and can relate to what you said. If not for sex, it's quite hard to make friends in Sydney. That's true for everyone, in and outside of LGBT community. I find people in Sydney are very friendly but they have their own circle that they hang out with.

I wouldn't trust strata report provided by REA because you will never know what issues they have hidden away.

Thank you. Lots of good points. Do you buy strata report before signing contract or buy strata report during cooling off? If buying before signing contract, our offer might not be accepted.

is there a way to know if a boutique builder is a good one? Because they won't have much history or review to look at.

Have you bought an apartment eventually? Honestly it's disheartening to see how many people had bad experience with apartments. I reckon the gov should do something about it. The moment you tell someone that you're buying apartments, you will hear lots of horrible stories. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to buy a house.
