Ausfag here.
Is the Australian dream of owning your own home over?
>mfw I work for pharmaceutical company and partner is a nurse, combined salary of $117k a year and all we can afford is a house in one of the worst suburbs in Victoria populated by shit skins and riddled with crime.

Is the housing market just a meme now?
So you're making like $88k USD per year combined? Yow.
That being said, buying in one of the highest population density spots in the country is not something I'd want to get into short of really raking in bank.
>>79626128
It might of came across like I meant $117k is a lot, I know it's not; I guess you could say that's about average annual income.
You'd just think with the average annual income, you'd be able to buy the average house in terms of average house prices; but it doesn't seem to work that way.
Median house price is now $ $707,415. Us ausseis are super cucked trying to get into the market, I'm starting to think it's all a meme.
>>79626798
>$707,415
Hory shet. Maybe if you know something about the market there or your long term planning to suggest that this would be a good investment you could go for it.
I would not buy a house 10x my income without a damn good reason (which I presume is probably pre-tax income to boot.) Then again kids these days are paying like $15k for a four year degree, or even worse than that, before even having any job at all. It's fucked up m8.
Work harder you spoiled millennial.
You expect to just start working and make the big bucks? That's called entitlement. And maybe if your generation wasn't so full of themselves we wouldn't be in this predicament.
Our countries are hollow shells of their former selves because of your greed and childish indolence.
Be glad you don't live here
This country is about to turn into Monaco 2.0 and I won't be able to afford a house/bigger apartment as an industrial mechanic
My grandparents live in a home valued at over $2,000,000 in the most expensive place in Victoria (per sq meter), their total combined income is a elderly couples pension.
They paid $64,000 for the house in 1985, which they paid for in mostly cash after selling their previous house for $55,000 (which they originally bought for $8,000 in the 1960s when the AUD took over the pound)
>>79627283
It's more that me and my partner have been renting for 5 years together now, saving every spare cent for the last 3 years to get $50k together but reality has hit, and we realize a $50k deposit doesn't get you anything these days.
Kind of sucks, is what it is I guess.
>>79627521
Go suck baby boomer cocks somewhere else mate
>>79625566
Mate, you're just going to have to move out into the country, move to somewhere like Wagga, homes are relatively cheap and plenty of jobs
>>79627984
MUH baby boomers
GenX did just fine for ourselves but you are pathetic and totally dropped the ball, nice.
>>79627521
Assume bait, but i'll bite.
Me and my partner both work any overtime we get, weekends ect and have but our social life on hold for years now to try and save a deposit to buy a modest run of the mill house in the outer burbs.
I'm not entitled to anything, I don't expect anything. I'm just curious to know how fellow ausbros afford houses without being multi millionaires or baby boomers.
>>79625566
Breh. I'm working at an unpaid internship at a fairly prestigious institution. The only reason I got hired was because I cold-emailed a guy there whose stuff I've read, told him I was a big fan and that I'd work for free once I graduated, and spent the previous year in college doing a shitty but well paid manual labor job part time and scrounging and saving my shekels to live in the big city without income.
This internship will open a lot of doors if I perform well and leave on a good note at the end of the summer, and it's like anything else: you work hard, you suffer, you strive, and in the end, you are rewarded.
Nothing is free. You and your "partner" should be working hard, saving, and only living somewhere that's a place to rest your head right now. Good things will come in time. But for real though, life isn't something with a finish line. It will always be hard, it will always be a struggle. Even if you find success, that success will just open the door to new challenges. And you should embrace that.
>>79627715
Houses are kind of money pits, even though they historically have often been vehicles for flipping or building equity. I say this having acted as a property manager before -- an owner that doesn't understand what maintenance costs shouldn't be thinking it's just going to be a free source of income to turn around and rent it out, although that can be extremely lucrative if you know what you're doing.
The only reason I regret renting is that I didn't think I'd be in the same area as long as I have. Otherwise it probably would have been a good bet for me to buy something modest even on a long mortgage because where I'm at the housing bubble never really got all that bad.
I'm kind of a scrounger, though. Even when I took out a loan for a car, it wasn't a long loan, and the down payment was about 1/3 of the cost because I borrowed a lot from my family at almost no interest as a very short term loan.

Not my fault you chose a terrible career path. You have only yourself to blame, and Had you been smarter and actually thought about your future. Instead of I don't know, partying and playing expensive video games. Well then you certainly would be much better off.
Like I said, this one is completely on you
>>79628114
GenX, being the greedy cunts they are took what the greedycunt boomers had left them.
Don't see how I dropped the ball when I only left highschool three years ago though, maybe if you lazy cunts had done a better job managing your countries we wouldn't be in this mess.
>>79625566
Build further out and commute.
Or, you can move out of literally the worst fucking state.
>My income is $75K.

>>79625566
Negative gearing my ausbro. It helps property developers gain more money because of rich foreign investment, but god help you if you are on early career wages and looking to buy your first home.
Joe Hockey summed up the shittiness of the situation by saying"Australians who cant afford to buy their first house should just... get better jobs."
>>79628294
We have done a fair amount of research and are pretty well versed with the pitfalls that can be involved with housing.
The problem is to buy something modest, even 45km out from the city is 450k, that's a lot of fucking money. We've even considered buying something for 450k with the deposit we have, renting it out and moving back in with my parents.
By the time we save another 50k, houses have gone up 70k. It's hard to know what to do, market doesn't seem to be slowing any time soon.
>>79625566
How do the shitskins afford the houses then? Centerlink?

>>79628887
HOW ABOUT YOU MOVE OUT OF THE CITY
>>79628408
I did think about my future, I fell for the university meme like nearly every other cunt and then realized at the end of it, there were no jobs.
I've been working in a factory ever since.
>>79628887
A commute like that at that price is crazy. That's just a screwy market. Kind of like when I go visit NYC, I know to plan around just hemorrhaging money because that place is simply ridiculous and I can't imagine living there or living anywhere near it and putting up with the commute.
For me, I was thinking of maybe something in the $40k range on a salary at the time of about $50k. Walking distance to work, and I have the skills to do most of the fixup work on my own.
>>79629124
I live in Langwarrin mate, 55km from the city and over an hour commute their by car.
Any further and i'd drop off the fucking map.
>>79628123
Actual answer: Don't live in Sydney or Melbourne. I know it doesn't help seeing as you grew up there and it is unjust that you can't buy housing in the area where your parents bought but the sad fact is that Sydney and Melbourne property prices are just meme level.
I bought my house in the south of adelaide in the early 2010s for $250,000 and it's a 3br 1bath type thing.
Or like the other anon said, out to Wagga.
>>79629364
Move out of Victoria then
You wouldn't raise your future children in pooftaland would you?
>>79629541
When you see four bedroom houses in Tassie going for 250k with beach veiws it's kind of tempting.
To bad all my friends, family, work and life is here. Not to mention the fact I love Melbourne.
AYYYYYYYYYYYY LMAO
Here in Australia though, a 45min commute is pretty standard. I know by American standards though that's like a 3 day trip haha

Yep its a Boomer....
Go back to your tax payer funded coffee.
>>79629800
Fuck it mate, you aren't going to have much of a life if you stay where you are now. Move to a country town, bigger sense of community, you'll find new friends and you'll still have contact with your family.
+Melbourne is trash mate, and the sooner you realist that the better
Don't move to tassie though, whatever you do
>>79629823
Guessing similar to here in Aus, that area is full of chinks?
>>79629888
It depends where you're at. 45min is pretty common in a lot of places. My first "real" summer internship was about 42min on average the best I could do with it, and that's one of the things that convinced me to move away and find a job that didn't tack on an extra hour and a half of being miserable in traffic every day.
>>79630006
>$600k for a home is reasonable now
Wew.
>>79630043
They don't call it Hongcouver for nothing. The entire city is owned by Chinese businessmen.
The Chinese completely fucked the housing market in Australia, I hear Canada especially Vancouver is awful because of that too.
>>79629823
Yeah in fucking plastic, Maple syrup flavored Elizabucks.
Multiply by 0.7 to determine their price in real currency. Get a decent job. I don't see the problem here.

Welcome to the club m80.
I studied hard and did my homework and got a university degree in science with a white coat and everything, and the dickheads who dropped out at year ten to punch cones and hammer bits of wood together are earning 100k+ while I can't find work.
If I had my time again I'd become a mechanic like I wanted to and have made bank in the mines by now.
Looking now at going back to training and landing a starting 70k in the medical industry but even then i'll be luck to rent/buy within an hour from the city.
If i had a dollar for every time some detached nearly-retired asshole told me 'you're a smart lad just work hard you'll be fine' I'd be retiring myself and not browsing rental shitholes 90km away from where I work.

My brother built a pretty amazing house on the cheap, lakefront property off in the woods, nice people, on a dirt road off a dirt road. The commute has been a bit of a drag, but he's doing great.
Then he took out a yuge loan from my grandfather to buy an entire high rise building to install his small business into while renting the rest back out. Grandpa's making way more interest than he could get at the bank, but my brother is paying peanuts compared to a bank loan and is sitting on mad equity to pay to send his children to school later on.
>>79630043
Here's what you should do lad
1. Learn how to weld
2. Get an apprenticeship welding (It's easy as, they're handing out welding apprenticeships by the truckloads at the moment)
3. Move to Port Augusta, SA. You'll have constant work welding out there, (I live here). I only work seven months a year and I pull in an easy 90k a year
4. Good sense of community, only has a population of around 15k, so it's not too big and not too small, and it's only a three hour drive from Adelaide.
5. FUCKING CHEAP HOUSE PRICESS ARGGH ARH G

Is there anything more Jewish than real estate markets?
>Buy property
>Expect it to go up in value no matter what is done with it
Wow its almost like we're in a system where it was doomed to spiral out of control in mere decades. Before an average joe with a job could buy a house in a year, now you need to be top 1% to get a fucking attached home in the middle of niggersville.
Aussie here. Just bought a house in Brisbane. 450k. I'm on 55k per year. I had a fair bit saved, I've been renting for ages so it was time. I'm 30.
Learn to save, be smart with your money don't waste it.
>>79631015
these are the cunts who vote labour because they think buying a house is impossible when there are houses going for 400-500k in good areas, spastics
>>79630112
Same thing's happened here leaf, the chinese have bought up large swathes of affordable property and just sat on it as an investment.
There are homes and apartments in decent areas here that are foreign owned with NO ONE living in them. Keeps the area prices high though.

Also your caps key seems to be stuck.
>>79631351
Sorry, mistyped that. I meant $150k. And that's really a lowball. It's really obviously about $200k after you add up all the rest even if you're trying to be frugal.
It boggles the mind. One year of where I went is now more costly than all four years. And meanwhile it's government subsidized and they're raking in alumni donations by the millions.

>>79631268
between me and the missus we had just over 20 percent saved. The deposit was 20k, the rest of the savings reduced the needed mortgage. Have 15k spare for some minor reno but the house was already great.
>>79625566
>>79625566
its a housing bubble, just save till it bursts.
make sure your savings arent volatile too, gold is good
So i got into the housing market at 23, as an apprentice (had been working before that obviously) its not that fucking hard to do.
had a deposit of 40grand, got a cheap small house $300,000 house and land package, built it new so know it has no maintenance issues. Since then house value has gone up to around $360000, while home loan is now only $222000
So while the market is shit i am considering buying an investment with the profit from that, i drive a crappy work Ute worth almost nothing, i don't waste money on junk i don't need and i have no credit card debt.
its not fucking hard
don't bubbles generally burst though?
This shit ain't moving man, I'm telling you.
>>79632057
where do you live?
>>79631994
With our proximity and desirability to Asia, especially China, the bubble won't burst. We've had to accept the hard reality that demand is intense.
Also: The Chinese government like to control citizen wealth. one way to bypass this is to buy houses here.

Fuck off you stupid seppo.
You people don't understand stepping stones and building up.
getting into the housing market is the hard part, once you are in it will go up in value and you will make your money that way, my place is only 3x2 in a slightly far away area, a few bad suburbs around, but in 4 years i have made massive gains on having it,
now i can sell and move somewhere better and then do the same thing,
if you get something bigger there is more maintenance more land fees more utility bills etc
>>79632622
You either want to have a shitty life, stay near your friends and family near the city, or be serious about having a future and move to somewhere the property is cheap.
You're fucking thirty years old, and you only just got your house. Probably don't have any kids yet, so you've fucked up mate
See I've never entirely got the stepping stone logic.
Buy house for 300k, live in it for 10 years. House now worth 600k let's say.
Now you want to buy I'm guessing a larger house in a better area? That house was already 400k when you brought your house in shitter suburb for 300k, now that house is 800k.
You still need to find two hundred thousand dollars. See why I don't get this logic?

This anon is correct.
Chinese demand will NEVER stop in foreseeable future, we are now their #1 destination to park their money.
Also, if you are buying right now try to have above 40% deposit. I know that sounds crazy, but our financial retail lenders themselves are highly leveraged at the moment and if there's any rocking of the global economy we could see a credit squeeze in Australia, so you want a large deposit and considerable buffer if you're renting it out, which you should do right now. Live with parents for a year.

Well you're wrong about that.
Anyway there's a lot of Australians that aren't willing to compromise on their life satisfaction, becoming a welder or other blue collar bullshit just won't cut it.
The notion you have of moving hours away from decent civilisation to work as someone's labour monkey may be attractive to you, but not everyone.
>>79634127
Problem is with Australia's and NZ's south islands is there are no jobs and no growth.
Take Tasmania say Queenstown. You can get a home for $150 k and a projected 9% ROI. But the place is a complete shithole, the suburb has no renters, the homes are old and of the age they all need rewiring, reroofing, replumbing, etc.
Plus these areas actually lose value some years which for Australia is unheard of.
Cheep isnt necessarily good. They stagnate growth with and your left with a lemon you can't convert back to cash due to lack of surrounding employment generators.
Remember getting shown the way in is easy, it's the way out, the exit that really matters.

No, no, no. It's called being an illiterate fuck tard.
No wonder we're being over run with mongrels and out worked by Indians and gooks. Aussies are fucked, we're probably the dumbest people in the world right now, young Aussie culture is a fucking joke.
Personally I couldn't really give a fuck, I'm hardly ever here so seeing the place being over run my immigrants while the typical Aussie stands their with their thumb up their arse with a smile on their face because they have the new iphone doesn't really bother me.
I just gave up a good paying job because they wanted me to re-locate to Sydney. Fuck that, lifes too short.
I've met many older successfull folk with a but tonne of money but were miserable as fuck. They spent their best years working fheir arses off and missed out on life, now they're too old to do shit. Depressing.
I'd be happy with my ok paying job and my hobbies. Renting is fine too, you'll be paying to live in a house for a long time anyway, whether you rent or pay off a mortage, it's the same shit. Atleast if you rent for 10 years you can save money to put away on the side, every spare cent you have after to take out a mortage is going to your dept.
Rent and travel, live your life and be happy and smash heaps of pussy.

Fucking hell m8, you're going to regret this one. Screencap this post.
both our shitposters down south and the canacucks got completely fucked in 2008 because they didn't have a crash like we did
and it's going to get worse when the next crash comes- and it's close

First, you shouldn't make blanket statements like this. People need to realize how fucking big the US is and how it differs state to state, coast to coast.
Second, in my city, the median house is 200k maybe, but that's only because 90% of homes for sale are in the ghetto for 100k. If you don't want to live in North Minneapolis and risk being shot in mini Chicago you're spending more like 300k+ a home, 400k in a nicer city like Woodbury or eden Prairie

Get fucked you lazy Ausnigger.
Learn to save money. My wife and I make the same money, saved and bought a $500k lifestyle block and house. There's no fucking excuse, just a strong case of entitilitis.

You don't know what you're talking about. There are heaps of good paying jobs in the South Island unless you're some pen pushing faggot.

Doesn't matter, defacto relationship, she can still take your shit, be carefull because she obviously knows how to pick 'em.
You're 19, listen to the older lads when they say you're too young to be getting bunked down with a piece of fanny.

NZ is quite similar, prices in Auckland are 1mil on average, most people blame Chinese instead of dumb cunts in the parliament that didn't stop the house buble sooner.
I'm surprised AUS is experiencing similar issues, the country is far more rich and average salary is higher than in NZ.

not really because pay is proportionate to cost of living in each state you moron. doctor in texas getting paid 200k per year would get paid 300k+ in cali. for example

Not really bro.
NZ are smart fuckers, the dumb fuckers over here relied on the mining boom and didn't look at long term economic solutions to keep us goin. Mining boom is over, aussie dollar is shit, nz dollar is something like 97aud....you have a pretty similair standard of living and average wage.

Do you guys also have the issue of Chinese buying a lot of properties? If so, are there any specific regulations that cuck them ?
>>79640423
None. If you go to an auction in Melbourne they speak mandarin as well as da engrish.

i wouldve considered a lot more of the air force jobs except im category 3 colour blind and ive always been a bit more interested in medical stuff and there werent any available counterparts in the air force for medical technician.
ive heard the same sentiment from a few people, except admittedly they were in more soldier type jobs that dont transfer into civilian workforce as well.
