back on the market
We received a letter today informing us that the lease for our flat will be terminated in 60 days. While I can appreciate that the university wants to replace people with jobs for poor students and underpaid academics in its housing; I hope that the same thing hasn't affected any recent graduates who don't yet have a real job.
Regardless of this, we now get to surf the real estate market for the first time in ages. This was probably going to happen soon enough any way, I just wish it was on our terms rather than someone else's. We're not particularly attached to living in the western suburbs triangle. We're currently thinking of trying the pink triangle instead.
The idea of buying instead of renting has appeal. It'll all depend on several factors: like what direction we're thinking of taking in the next couple of years. On the other hand, if you have property close to the Perth CBD that you're trying to sell/rent, let us know!
