I was looking online at places to potentially move to with a friend yesterday

We saw an apartment for sale for $450,000, and it seems like it would be perfect for me. It's small enough to not need much, the body corp would be less than $5000 per year and cover the maintenance, and it's in the area I want and close to the train station. The problem is that unless I can get a 20% deposit that isn't happening. But I can dream. Plus it's been on the market for nearly two years so it's for sale at less than the value of the property but I doubt it'll sell if it's been this long. But I can't get the idea of owning it out of my head. It's going to ge a painful few days until this works out of my system

I have seen some sellers that are willing to finance it themselves. Doesn't hurt to ask. Maybe they are motivated enough to consider it by now.

@MisterBander I couldn't afford the financial repayments regardless. I just wanted to vent.

you could put in an offer; they might be ready to just be out of it. so long as your offer isn't a kick in the shin and half a coke.

@dirge I have $20,000 at most, so it's a bit worse than that.

How many square feet? On how much land?
I always plan to survive Armageddon so can you plant crops (a garden) is there a well? good sunlight exposure? A basement? A bomb shelter? lol

As a matter of interest, have you established why it has been on the market so long??😷

@whowasthatmaskedman I've got a year of saving ahead of me anyway, so I can hopefully ride out the worst of it this year. Plus not having a car (or a driver's licence) means I don't have that massive expense. The rising cost of goods won't help though.

@KiwiDan Sounds like a plan. Lets hope nothing messes with it..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Hopefully not.
