Got all my shit together and put in an app for the poky little place I looked at today - I'm ashamed to say I offered a bit more than they were asking simply because I think this is one of the few places where I have a good shot and it ticks enough boxes (that said, so many people at the inspection...)
One thing that's nice is when you speak to other applicants and it's friendly banter and you're not all eyeing each other off as competition. And you can commiserate with each other over the shitty situation we're all in...
Had also planned to get in touch with a not-so-close aunt in the outer suburbs to subtly ask about staying with them as a backup if all else fails. Through sheer providence, she called me first... To tell me they're going to sell their place in Nov and if I could help them with tidying up!!!! 😭 She did say once it's been tidied I'm welcome to a spare bedroom until I find a place/the place is sold, but there goes my backup option til July. Oh well
- Neither do many people who have "got theirs" and won the game, and don't understand why the others just don't work harder. I fear Australia is being pressure-cooked into the wide wealth disparity that we see in other parts of the world
  
  Believe me when I say it can get a lot worse.
- I hope you get it!
  
  Thanks!!! It's not ideal as not only will I have to prematurely give up my plants, it's not got a gas stove (sadface) and is off a rather busy road - but the unit seems reasonably well protected. However, it's short term so at least I dont need to feel locked in! It's got space for a full fridge, washing machine, and has a dishwasher and aircon and a nice big ledge in the living room for indoor plants. And is in a very convenient location for shops, food, PT, work... even with the higher amount offered it's still less than my current rent. I could afford other luxuries even if the apt isn't ideal
