Pretty much, only ever see people posting up their winning tickets eh.

Anyone know the law behind renting? A friend has just moved in a week ago to a place but there's a LOT of shit that doesn't work or is problematic, stove doesn't work, oven doesnt work, toilet leaks pretty badly, taps drip, some lights don't work, TV antenna on the house doesn't work & pick up 0 channels with rabbit ears to name a few. What's the likely hood of leaving? Would they loose the whole bond and months rent paid in advance? or is there a cooling off period? I've never rented so got no idea. 

I mean I know stuff can be fixed, but shit takes time and headaches plus they're not in love with the place to begin with. 

Eh...have to give landlord opportunity to fix and they have to fix within a certain time period from when you make the complaint. If it's an emergency item (those aren't btw), you can get fixed yourself and bill the landlord for it.

I'm not sure if you can negotiate a lower rent payment until problems are fixed or get reimbursed for the inconvenience, but you legally have to pay the rent or you risk breaking the lease (the broken shit doesn't break the lease unless they never fix). Real estate agents are generally pretty good about getting problems sorted if you stay on their backs. If they don't fix then you could go to VCAT and break the lease without penalty, getting bond and any pro-rata rent paid in advance back.

 

landlord has 14 days to attend to non urgent maintenance.. also you cant just fix urgent items and bill the landlord you have to notify the agent / landlord IF no action is taken in a reasonable time frame then you can do that but be careful its a minefield as if its deemed to be excessive or a problem the tenant was responsible for they get stuck with the bill.

best bet is submit maintenance request if no action in 14 days apply to vcat they most likely wont terminate the lease but they will give the agent power to use the rent to get items attended to in order of necessity if your really lucky they might let you out

Thanks mate, some good advice i'll pass it on. I think the place will be fine once shit is sorted, it's just a matter if they actually DO sort shit out within 14 days - time will tell.

that was my theory as well.

 

but the service just didn't work at the time.

 

12Mg is pretty slow

is the adsl 2+ or 1?

also from experience the ping times are a bit crappy so if your gaming might be an issue

 

 

yeh not the best speeds, but adsl2 can be shitty and random from my experience too (seen 2-15mbps depending on location) leeroy got like 2mbps didn't he? lol 

speed tests were over the 12/1 cap on the phone so leaning towards suggesting the wireless option.. only like 15ms ping too which is decent enough not that they'd be gaming.

Yeah some people claiming the second coming of christ on hot copper. Some "big players" have popped their head in so everyone gets excited. Triple the buy orders on commsec from the low volume last week.
They put out a research document thingy last week that went basically unnoticed.

In my long term opinion now is a great time to be in if you're looking to cash out in a few months, as no doubt IW2 and it's associated news will have you above he current prices at some point.

In my short term / daytrader opinion I'm selling out today because...sell when people buying etc.

[Birds]

Really should start playing with bigger cash, though the thought terrifies me that I'll fk up on something big.

[Leroy Peterson]

Tidy profit from today then. Theres talk of buying more leases for land that includes more of the conventional pockets found, auctions are 9th of december or something. I have a suspicion more details of the seismic results will sprout there heads after (or maybe shortly before) the leases are sold off.
Why release all that info when its only going to drive up the price?

[UNR33L]

Just waiting for 12 months to sell mine and hopefully at a profit
