Inspected an apartment rental today that was $500 pw, looked like it should be $200 pw if this was 5 years ago, and was furnished with a framed psalm verse from the bible. We are in strange times.
#back at it again with the rental property search which is somehow an annual event now#just have to wade through the mass of bad listings to hopefully find the right ones#it's slim pickings but there are pickings when you squint#but seriously who are some of these properties meant for#the one I inspected today looks like something a solo person goes for when they don't care about frills and need a roof overhead#like people on welfare right#but#this place was 500 dollaridoos per week#no one on welfare is hauling that in lol#so who are these apartments for#oh whoops sorry maybe I should lower my standard I forgot my above average salary is compatible with shoebox depression apartments only#my mistake I thought I was living in a country with affordable housing for a sec and forgot I was in australia#the thing about moving around so much is that every time you shift you get a very updated picture on how radically rent cost has increased
