So on my bus ride to work, I go past Pentridge. There's a three storey house for lease, so I've just looked it up to have a peek, and it's $1,000 PER WEEK‽ ~$4k per MONTH‽
Who has that kind of money for rent? Wouldn't you just buy a house at that point??
I will say though, this house has an internal lift servicing all three levels. Maybe that's part of it, maintenance for the lift? Idk.
I just want to know what kind of jobs people have where they could afford that kind of rent, but not buy a house and pay a mortgage. Maybe a highly skilled, well paid working person from overseas? Where they wouldn't live in Aus permanently, but would leave eventually?
