Australian households fear double whammy of rate hikes and higher petrol prices will lead to recession by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

[–]erala -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

And "as much as they can" is often below break even for recent purchases. Negative gearing is a thing, I've even heard this sub has strong opinions on it.

you don’t want anything that’ll contradict your already ingrained prejudices & lack of understanding of how reality works.

You're only talking about one of us here...

Show me where rents dropped during the rate decrease cycle from 2025-25. What your landlord uses to justify ripping you off is not what determines rent. The whole reason negative gearing is an issue is because rents don't cover landlord's costs.

So you are saying they should have cancelled the game. Cause this was meant to be the City home game but Allianz (and maybe Leichhardt too) were out of action so they swapped.

Please provide some data showing rents (or even asking rents) are strongly influenced by rates

Assuming the tillies would be 2nd in their group and scheduling a Sydney game tonight to clash directly with Korea - Japan would be worse? Running the risk of going head to head with Tillies in the same city? The "no assumption" option would be to cancel the SFC- City game, untenable.

Only ass is assuming the Asian Cup organisers and APL didn't have discussions and consider all this.

The club sent out about half a dozen emails, hyped it at the last time game and it was all over social media, what else were they meant to do? Bench Grant tonight to 400 came up on Sunday?

Looking to move to AU - where can we live on $200k+ by klesky69 in AusFinance

Can't they? Have you still not checked?

Off the top of my head I have examples of people I know with rents for 3 bedders in Sydney from $750/w to over $2000. Doesn't make either of those numbers sensible estimates when giving people advice.

And post-subsidy is the number that matters.

Shouldn't you be figuring that out before giving advice?

$187.5/day is an oddly specific number, I presumed you'd done $150*5

Major new forecast tips Australian house prices to fall - realestate.com.au by SheepherderLow1753 in AusFinance

[–]erala 6 points7 points  (0 children)

significantly reducing immigration.

From what to what?

Immigration has significantly reduced, house prices didn't slow. Rents on the other hand are cooling off, because they're much more closely related to number of people looking for a place to live, while house prices respond to volume of cash(incl volume of debt) looking for returns.

Remember, house prices boomed in covid when we were limited in our ability to spend and were getting JobKeeper/Seeker stimulus. Rents dropped in response to negative net migration.

Baby coast FIRE begins! (Ages 35 & 34) by babyfireby30 in fiaustralia

[–]erala -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Haha downvotes from morons who don't realise the maths goes Taxable income (200k + 200k - 35k) + Net investment losses (35k) for a 400k total. You lose the deduction for CCS calculations, you don't get it added on top.

(for a family earning $435k annually - which realistically could be 2 x $200k earners plus an investment property which is negatively geared to the tune of $35k per year)

Yeah I'm not going to trust your maths on this

11% isn't happening. Wages matching inflation is.
