Rental Woes in Sydney

3 months, 1 week ago

Well. I was warned, but I wasn’t ready to spend my days picking through rental listings constituted by greed and misrepresentation.

- Room prices of more than $110 for sharing a room with 2 other people,
- Houses advertised in totally different Suburbs to where they actually are,
- and listings for Girls/Ladies/Female only.

everything else is way about budget, at +$210 for what would have been $130 last year.

Tsk. Difficult.

    Ouch! Have to say, it’s not a whole lot better here in Melbourne. Not looking forward to moving soon. Good luck with finding somewhere

    I hate to say I told you so…

    This comment isn’t to rub it in, both rooms got filled, but as it turned out, the crazy scientologist is moving out in 2/3 weeks. Might be worth a look.

    Less than $150 for a room, but I can’t tell you a thing about the housemates, never met them.
