So a massive gate and massive sliding/folding glass doors across the whole back of the place?

It seems like a fine stage from which to show off your efforts in the gym, at least thats the first reason you would want it that comes to mind.

small side garden I see to work on.

 

the empty lot next door is that part of the park or will some-one build on it? 

Park - only have one neighbour.

first home buyers duty reduction. you get 50% off if it your primary place of residence.

 

if you put the full 80% down them you don;t need to pay loan mortgage insurance.

 

simples

 

 

You mean 20%

 

If you put down 80% up front on your first house you have done well.

 

Going 20% deposit also gets you lower interest rates on top of not having to pay mortgage insurance.

With this I got the NAB first home buyer rate which is apparently the best in the market right now - fixed for two years. Also get about $1800 worth of shopping vouchers.

Oh shiiiit

Don't tell him/her that you earned the money with CSGO skins

 

I prefer independent jewellers (bcoz hipster) because the people and artists actually know what they're doing, and they have no reason to lie to you, the items do all the talking so to speak. It's not just a spec sheet.

 

I've used e.g. etal in the CBD a couple of times. More designer stuff, but guaranteed unique and brownie points for the wimminz (compliments and envy galore amongst peers). Also got quality custom necklace from Ralf Finch in The Basin (chose a design, picked necklace and got to choose the pearls to use).

 

Edit: diamond earrings is a tough choice. Easily lost, small, mostly are studs so super subtle.

"Pearl necklace" sure sure 

Ok cool so there's no decent online shop gotta get off my ass and go somewhere? 

Mortgage insurance is proportional to your LVR and there's a law of diminishing returns to it, which starts to get awfully shitty when borrowing at high LVRs.

Here's a good example - you have 70k saved up as a first home buyer, it could be allocated as such:

A. 600k property, 5% deposit of 30k, LMI of 26k, stamp duty 15k = initial upfront of ~70k and your LVR is 95% on 570k borrowed

B. 500k property, 10% deposit of 50k, LMI of 9k, stamp duty 11k = initial upfront of ~71k and your LVR is 90% on 450k borrowed

So whilst 100k difference between the purchase price of the two places, the more expensive one actually requires you to borrow 120k more due to money spent on LMI (and some for the extra stamp duty).

One loophole you could use to avoid this - get a relative to borrow and "gift" you enough to make up a 20% deposit and cover the stamp duty - you finance the other 80% = no mortgage insurance and you just service both loans. Or they can go guarantor on the loan and you technically don't need any deposit or LMI.

With this I got the NAB first home buyer rate which is apparently the best in the market right now - fixed for two years. Also get about $1800 worth of shopping vouchers.

 

I'm on 3.81% at the moment, zero annual fees.

 

Looks like the comparison rate for that 3.69% deal is 4.38%

 

Pretty sure ubank and loans.com.au are still the actual comparable cheapest as they have no annual fees on their variable rate loans, with a once off few hundred $$ fee if you want to go fixed rate. But you have to have minimum 20% deposit to get those deals.

It was available to you too? You said you went in on 20% or more deposit?

 

Talking about the rate; I have no idea when you obtained a loan.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
