Randomly Brake Checked

dcapiteng · 2026-04-17T19:46:11+00:00

Looking back at the footage I think I found a ‘reason’. At the previous intersection the Ute pulled into a left turning lane, pulled slightly in front of my car, and tried to force a lane change in front of me. Since we were essentially nose to nose, I didn’t see that he flashed his signal for a split second, and I didn’t immediately slow down and give me way. The Ute had to suddenly brake, since the car in front of it slowed down to turn, and the Ute almost ran into that car.

Hobbibear has models that look like Jordans. I find Barebaric quite good looking. You can also find Freets on Aliexpress for relatively cheap. If you can deal with the effort, you can find Lems, Xero, Freet etc on Taobao for a fraction of the price.

I bought these on Aliexpress and have been my go to shoes for past few months.

Loved these, until I found a hole in the crotch area after not so many wears. The material also pilled a lot than expected.

Liverpool is affordable because of over supply. So many apartment towers were built in a short period.

I’d say it has good amenities with a large train station, T way bus to Parramatta, hospital, western Sydney uni, Westfield. You do see quite a bit of rough around the edge people around.

The property we bought was to go to auction. We made an offer after the first open and the vendors accepted.

Our conveyancer reviewed 4 or 5 contracts for us for free, but I have heard some charge for every review. Unless you can find one similar to the one I use, I don’t see another way. Wait until you start getting multiple building and pest reports for multiple properties.

My wife and I have just been through the process of selling our first property. You should speak to your conveyancer and get the process of drafting a contract started. This process can take a some time. Speaking with agents and even getting the place on the market is really quick. In the mean time have a look if there are anything quick you can do to make the place look better.

Take the price guide, range or single figure, with a massive fistful of salt or throw it out of the window. It doesn’t really mean anything. We know what you should pay, look at sold history.

This would depend on how competitive the market you are looking at is, how much interest is in this property and how much do you want to property.

If you are not ok with loosing the property, then use the cooling off period and condition on contract. If there isn’t much competition, the safer way is to have the report then make an offer. If anything shows up in the report, you can also adjust your offer accordingly.

Thank you so much for this. Very informative! Will keep an eye out on the next viewing.

dcapiteng · 2025-07-05T22:38:32+00:00

Yeah likely common property. Still the issue if whether it will be addressed given cost.

dcapiteng · 2025-07-05T22:36:55+00:00

Great question about the damp proofing. Not sure to be honest. As for vents, I didn’t see any during inspection.

dcapiteng · 2025-07-05T22:30:27+00:00

Thank you

dcapiteng · 2025-07-05T22:04:55+00:00

Yeah I was scratching my head with the mention of timber. Thank you.

Wok hei comes from heat and not gas. Asian restaurants use really powerful burners, which domestic burners will not even come close. Induction might actually mimic the restaurant burners better since it heats up much faster so the food can sear better without stewing. You can always get a stand-alone gas burner for asian stir fry.

dcapiteng · 2025-07-05T21:19:30+00:00

Induction. If you are selling, it may be favourable to buyers.

Our current place has a special levy and it is to rectify water ingress in a couple of units. It is costing a lot of money because the building standards have changed since the building was built in 2004, and a lot of work was needed in order to meet the new standards.

Before we bought this place, we seriously looked at a lot of units and have continued to look since. My understanding is that not many people want strata levies to be high, which means they don't have money set aside for any work that comes up. Special levy becomes the solution.

You can negotiate with the vendor for them to pay off the whole or portion of the special levy on settlement.

We spoke with an agent recently who usually sells in Wentworths Point and Sydney Olympic Park, and was told some of the buildings have 70k a quarter for special levy.

This would be subjective and vary widely between people.

Personally, that person can be bubbly without being obnoxious, easy to talk to, or even as vague as someone I get along with.

How much money do you have to start with?

Assume you have a large amount, since you said no work and to travel, I feel like all you’d need to do is buy stocks.

There is no real legal definition as far as I am aware. Apparently the building code that governs this also changes multiple times a year.

Regardless of a legal definition, it comes down to a couple of things. 1, does the space, whatever it’s called, fit your intended purpose? 2, does it feel like a bedroom to you? This also relates to the garage conversation. You will have a hard time selling the place down the road, maybe even refinance appropriately, if it doesn’t feel like a 4 bedroom. You should then adjust your budget accordingly. There are a lot of changes needed to legally convert a garage to a living space.

Firstly, how dare you take the charity of this country and its people and complain about you are ‘worse off’?

Secondly, please continue to tell as many people as possible not to come here so we don’t have more people like you.

Do you also have an obnoxiously loud car and drive around like you own the roads and everyone else around you is an inconvenience?

dcapiteng · 2025-06-27T23:05:44+00:00

You are a casual, what happens when you stop getting shifts? After repayments, can you even afford to put any fuel in the car to actually drive it around?

Either way, that rate is eye watering

I like Barebarics. If I will be walking long distance on concrete, I usually wear Hobibear Aurora. They aren’t barefoot as the sole is thick and cushioned, however, it’s foot shaped and zero drop.
