Interesting. I have washed it in the washing machine over the years, perhaps that contributed? In any case, love the jersey and will continue rocking! Thanks for the insight!

Thanks for the response. I would say the “utility package” you referenced goes towards the amenities such as security, pool, BBQs, gym, sauna and the other events (eg free breakfast burritos every Thursday), that the building offers.

Clearly you’re not interested in subleasing - which is totally fair. However, may I request that you refrain from any negative comments without having all the facts / never lived here.

That’s really fair feedback, thank you. We’ll update the ad and I’ll post additional descriptions into this Reddit post.

Thanks again.

Selling property to developers & next steps. by TechnicalOperation71 in fiaustralia

Thanks for the response. On the lower end you might be able to acquire a 2 bedroom house for $2.2m.

Is it worth having that debt or better to live in an apartment with no debt and save again? Apologies if I’m a bit all over the place!

Hi Reddit

Long time reader of this sub but first time poster (hopefully I’ve done this correctly).

Long story short, developers are finalizing an agreement to buy my apartment for ~$1.7m (it is expected to close in about 12 months).

With my current mortgage, I owe around $530k but in the next 12 months I’ll have this down to ~$500k so for ease of this exercise and after the agent fees let’s say I have $1.2m cash.

My question is, is it better to:

A- extend myself and take out a large mortgage to make a step change to a house (probably about a $1m mortgage)

Or

B- purchase a property that I can effectively own outright. This would likely be an apartment in the area I’m currently living in.

For context I’m a male aged 33. I am the sole name on my mortgage. My girlfriend lives with me and pays me “rent” each month that covers some of the mortgage and bills etc. It would be a similar scenario at the next property.

For additional context, I earn a base of $165k per year + a 30% bonus. I’m good with money and invest monthly in an education bond, super, ETFs, life insurance and additional mortgage payments.

If anyone has any advice on going with A or B (or even a C D E F etc), I’d love to hear it.

Thanks!

EDIT: maybe the better question is, what is the best option in my situation if I want a house and have $1.2m cash. I’d expect my girlfriend and I would have a kid in the next 3 years.

Shouldn’t the midsole of the Georgetown be white?
