For only $800 a month, you can be homeless if you work hard enough!
I mean, you could just not rent it.
Is Brisbane this bad? Have heard of syd, melb and cbr being like this but somehow assumed things were netter up north.
Sadly it is. I regularly go into Brisbane and have seen the amount of folks sleeping rough at least triple in the list couple of years.
Yeah it is, most rooms are 200+ in the inner suburbs, 3 bedrooms are easily 6-800/wk. I was somewhat depressed by the number of people bombarding me with offers when we had a spare room to fill.
I don't think listing is meant as somewhere to live (I hope) I think it's meant for someone to rent to go on a roadtrip/camping with

Seeing as you're from another instance I'm guessing you're not from Australia, and came across this thread on /All?
Weekly rent is, for some weird reason, the norm here. I know most of the world does it monthly, and frankly I think that makes more sense. But it's not how we do things in Aus.
Am I poor or desperate enough to think that 800/mth is on the high end of reasonable?
Although paying rent every week like they do in Australia is crazy to me still.

For a caravan in the driveway of someone's semi-rural property?
