Yup, if you’re not together with anyone, the best is to just stay home for a few years to save up some money if its possible. Eventho it can be hard to live at home so long hah. Cheers
This is rather relateable. My dad told me "when you're 18 you got 1 year to find a flat to live in". Come my 18th (on the second i did tunr 18) he told me to kick rocks. Was homeless for 6 months, couchsurfing. Found a shitehold i could call home.
Big city dweller here, and the housing situation here is unlivable. There is no way any actual people are paying these prices, just insane "investors" sitting on the properties and waiting for the prices to go higher again, or rich people from other places moving in and pricing everyone else out. This is a bubble mark my words.
This is what happens when there are no restrictions on how many properties an entity that isn't a person can own. It's always why passive income is problematic. Get rid of being able to live a wealthy life off of passive income and things will start to shift.
It's because it has the same cause all over the world - monolithic investment corporations buying all the property and creating artificial scarcity to drive up prices.
I've gone from paying $350 a week pre-2020, to being forced out of the house I was in and paying $550 a week. Rent is going up to $680 a week this year. The cheapest rentals in the entirety of Perth are knocking on the door of $500 a week. There's got to be something that snaps this bubble, and it needs to happen soon. I would hate to think what single income low-mid income families are doing. Can't exactly get roommates if you have a house full of kids.
I make $100k a year as a software engineer and I live in a van. But to be fair, it's a nice van. Has a view of the harbor bridge when I'm driving over it.
I live in a small town in Finland. I pay a 850€/month mortgage on a biggish 2009 house with a separate garage and a 3500 square meter lot. Cost 225 000€. My friend lives relatively close to Helsinki, and there you literally pay the same amount for just a tiny lot without even a bloody house on it. :P
so that's a house in 4 years of pay give or take another 4 for food n stuff... no, no that can't be true.... no if course not. the chicken tastes like chicken there IS a spoon ahhhhh all better now
im in ireland at the mo. i moved out of my family home to live in an estate that had such bad crime issues they built a wall separating it from the rest of the city. it was called The Berlin Wall of Limerick. and the rent is still a thousand euro a month that we split 3 ways

Currently paying $280 per week for a room. If I wanted to rent the entire house, I would be paying the landlord $1400 per week. At least utilities and Wi-Fi is included.
No This is so Sydney centric. The coffee one was too. You can get a coffee in Melbourne or even country Victoria anytime. Also the rentals in the city are often on par with the country because the rental shortage is Australia wide so they're charging high prices everywhere. It's insane. You pay the same price of city living with none of the benefits.
I'm thankful I have parents that understand the impossibility of moving out at the moment and are letting me live rent free while I save for the future
I have my two 20 something adult sons living at home. I don't charge them any rent or utilities so they can save their money. It is virtually IMPOSSIBLE for them to move out! I feel really sorry for young people trying to get what should be considered pretty basic - a home to live in. And if I hear someone else say 'well they shouldn't eat so much avocado toast' I think I might punch them. 😡
@@katiebrent3332 you're a good parent, I'm in my twenties too and im glad there are other parents out there like mine that are actually understanding of the situation we are in. We could work 5-6 days a week for the entire start of our lives and barely have enough to live on our own. It's a joke.
We were priced out of our old place. Used to be 375 per week, next year it was 420, then 450. Now it's 510 on the market. A 2 bedroom unit, 1 bathroom. We had to move into a sharehouse, we collectively pay 675 a week now. Brisbane.
Now imagine being kicked out, told you need to be out of the house the next day, in the middle of winter in an area that gets feet of snow and is often near 0 degrees fahrenheit outside, during the height of COVID, without a driver's license that I'm struggling to get because of COVID. Thank god my mom let me stay with her. 3 years later I'm still living in a place that does not have a kitchen, shower, or laundry. It's a room with a half bathroom, supposed to be an office space, not a place to live, but it's all I can afford.
