Why is it that with such a housing boom going on it’s so hard to find a decent place to rent? My housemate and I are looking for a new place to live, house, townhouse, unit, apartment we don’t care. It just needs to be in a reasonable location (in Brisbane that generally equates to somewhere near the SE freeway, or reasonably close to the city), about 2 bedrooms (one can even be really small), an office and space for 2 cars to park (under cover optional) . The $200 to $250 price point is about right for us. Trouble is, we just can’t seem to find a place that meets even those pretty loose requirements. Well actually we did find one place that looked perfect but it had already been taken. Really frustrating that the real estate agent made me go out there to take a look at the place before they bothered to tell me it was taken too. There’s one other option which has some potential. Have to call the real estate agent tomorrow and find out if it’s taken or not. So, anyone got a place in Brisbane they want to rent to two fine upstanding young business men?
