    I know you said you are already looking, but get on it sooner rather than later. This side of chirstmas is a bit slower, but jan feb is NUUUUUTs for rentals.

      Oh absolutely, I was intending to have moved out by Dec anyway (which is when the rent increase was gonna kick in). Not a whole heap coming online atm, but as my next place is just short term I’m cutting out a lot of nice to haves and being a lot less picky.

        dunno where you live, dunno what your looking for, but Fairfield always surprised me as being cheap to rent. Not sure if thats still the case though. mrs had a dump on station street back in the day that was perfectly serviceable.

          It’s at the northern edge of where I’m looking but I’m definitely seeing some cheaper apts there and in Alphington too. One non negotiable for me though is not on a main road as I’m sensitive to traffic noise when wfh/sleeping. So far a lot of things that tick the other boxes have been on main roads. Saw a nice joint that ticked every box but then I saw it was off Power St in Hawthorn and I’m like… Yeah nah
