Fuck. We've just been given notice on our place

I'm flabberghasted.

How can someone earning $35K p/a expect to:

Drive a $35,000 car
Buy a $350,000 house

the repayments on the above are much greater than the income. If said person earns $35K then it's a fair bet they actually earned less than that in preceeding years and therefore must be about 40 years old by the time they can afford to be first time buyers.

I must therefore have misunderstood..unless all kiwis are awarded a Suitcase load of cash from their parents when they turn 18.

[McJim]

a good rule of thumb is new car 12 months earnings and a house 10 years earnings its been this way for decades

Rule of thumb in UK would be nearer - new car 6 months earnings new house 6 years earnings.

What if i wanna buy a car and live in it?... does the same rule apply?...
Or live in the top box on the bike...Luxury...has nice views, easy indoor/outdoor access..low rates...etc

You Have To Start Some Were I Know 3 Mates That Live At Home And Purchused A Cheep Do Up Say $280k Then Painted It Cleaned Up The Yard And Re Sold It Took The Proffit And Did It Again And Again And Again Your Hard Work Pays Off

[McJim]

It's just a lot easier to land a job that pays about one third of the value of your ideal home and get a mortgage though...at least that's what I've found.

Make their Christmas and give them 3 weeks notice you are moving out .....

Usually if the owners or family are moving in the only need to give 3 weeks, I could be wrong .......

Or you could just squat until after Christmas, surely you would have a good case if they take you to task over it.

Bad luck.

[WINJA]

Its Gonna Be Bloody Hard Finding A Place That Lets You Keep A Dog , Why Are They Giving You Notice? Ill Kick My Tenant Out If You Want My Place But Only If I Can Nick Vixters More Personal Items Off The Clothes Line And Also She Has To Sunbathe Topless

[WINJA]

the arse is falling out of the rental market right now, you'll get alot of bang for your buck - a mate of mine just got a 3 bed house with a small pool in parnell for $400/week!

I've been looking to buy recently, I've seen alot of ex-rental houses - bloody state of them, nice houses but hard to see past the skidmarked undies on the floor - nice.

THE MARKET IS DOWN THIS TIME OF YEAR CAUSE THE STUDENTS GO BACK TO ASIA ETC , BUT THEYLL BE BACK AND THE AVERAGE PRICE RISES AGAIN AND PEOPLE WITH $400 BARGAIN RENT ARE GIVEN 6 WEEKS NOTICE SO THAT 6 CHINKS CAN SHIFT IN AND PAY $100 EACH

what kind of dog is it? If u give it to me i'll bring it to work, you can see it and it can play with ruthless's dogs.....

[Clivoris]

You could always trade the GSXRs on a Honda Goldwing. You would lose interest in the girl thing and spend less money trying to impress her. Then you could throw a tarp over it and house four people underneath. Lets face it, you probably wouldn't ride it.



Hope you find something mate.



Any offense caused to Goldwing owners by this post was absolutely intentional.

I'm beginning to think my old man was right when he said to move back to the UK.
