    I’ll counter this: rent wasn’t enough to pay the mortgage, so what we should make a loss and not have a property to live in? at the end of the day it is a government responsibility to provide housing for its citizens. It is not your or my responsibility to put a roof above someone else’s head. That’s what our tax dollars should be going to. Not paying the cfmeu out the ass to build more transport projects that are 4x the price they should be.

    This is capitalism. We all gotta do what we gotta do. But at the same time fuck people who own 4 or 5 properties and are screwing their tenants.

      See I don’t mind when people a buy house with the intent to occupy, whether there are tenants already or not. I care when people buy 4-whatever houses and up the rent like assholes. Said as a lifelong tenant who will never own a house lol

        Totally agree. We were first time owner occupiers. It wasn’t a choice sadly, we weren’t out to screw anyone
