Worst things about Sydney
While visiting Sydney Australia to see my Family here I have noticed some good and bad things about Sydney. I wonder what the worst things about Sydney you have experienced are.During my stay in Sydney I have always felt safe no matter if its day or night, but still wonder is Sydney Crime Capital of Australia as I have heard about gang activities here.Parking in Sydney is expensive too imagine paying $11 for one hour parking in City.I have read many local newspapers complaining of the public transport now and then. I have had some experience where train/buses aren’t on timeNo doubt the cost of living in Sydney is higher. Basic needs like food and rent are expensive.In some localities, international students have been mugged quite frequently and police is not being very supportive. That surely counts

My Expereince of Australian Property Market
Often I visit Sydney for Business purposes and have found it amazing how the Australian dream to own a house is so much hard work. Accompanying my friends who are looking for houses in some western suburbs of NSW for last so many months.They still are unable to find the ideal house which would help their Budget and requirements.
The current scenario of property market offers too much to buyers and is supposed to be a buyer market but I have actually found that the prices are over priced as compared to last time I came to Sydney. I think the sellers are adding the First home owner grant to their benefit rather then the buyer.A lot of my weekends are spend with my friends helping them in looking for houses across Glendenning, plumbton, Acacia Gardens, Stanhope Gardens and Glenwood.
No wonder I am hardly any help to them when it comes to selecting the suburb but my experience in Indian property market as developed a niche in recognising a Good House. The ingredients of a good house for me would be its land size, location -close to public transport,schools,child care facility, Indian gas cooking ,wardrobes in rooms, decent toilet and lastly to see that you wouldn’t need to spend any cash to actually move in repairs, painting and cleaning.
What I have heard from my friends check list is that he need to check if it is a full brick ,brick veneer or weather board. Whether the security system is installed, kitchen exhaust is available,air conditioning is available.
Through my new experience of Australian property market I have come across many good tools which I would like to share as that what this blog is all about ,sharing my experiences.
To check property prices in the area you are looking Suburb Profile
MFAA Loan Calculators
Financial Calculators
To find out the price the property you are looking for was sold last time just send a text message to 19767474 with the address details along with suburb and postcode.
Its amazing how the Australian property market is so well advances as compared to Indian counterpart.Wish there were such tools available from us back home.Things would been so easy.
While I was writing this blog my friend insisted that I should add this checklist provided by him called
My Handy Checklist once you are Interested in a Property in Auction
1) Detailed recent sales in your chosen suburb.
You can email nsmatta@gainhomeloans.com.au for free property report.
2) Ask for contract and refer it to your solicitor and conveyance
3) Conduct at least two inspections at different times to check on noise and traffic.
4) Get council and water rates, get a quote of Building Insurance,Removalist.This will help you determine your Budget for Auction
5) Organise building inspection and pest report and a survey report if necessary.
6) Ask your lender to issue you a blank cheque for the time of Auction
7) Arrange Building insurance before advising lender of the purchase. Note building insurance is separate from Mortgage insurance. You need to pay Mortgage insurance if you are borrowing more then 80% of the cost of property.

New Year Greetings from the land of the thousand colors and no paintbrushes
Greetings from the land of the thousand colors and no paintbrushes,also known as the land of 3000 Gods,also known as the land where there is no electricity.My power's been off for 3 days. Some major rain created havoc. I am living in the office.Saying this I would like the opportunity to re-present myself to this court of esteemed group of mixed nutters.
I am Sir Smile from the land far away where people are permanently tanned so we don't have to go to Florida, Miami, or the Bahamas. (which saves us lot of money) . I come from a land where they eat a green chili with an onion and still get dates with women. I come from a land where its possible that the dump in your yard could have been that of an elephant's walking down the street and the firing and bomb explosions you hear in the middle of the night are basically firecrackers being lit for celebrating the festival of the month.
Its the land of a billion people and none of them are sane, including me. So if you see a T shirt which says "Come to India, 1 billion people can't be wrong". You better be careful with the guy who's wearing it. What else to say, that ladies here drape themselves in a 6.5 meter colorful cloth which would put the rainbow to shame. Our government is ...wait a minute "What government"...ahem!.
Our criminal
police system is best described by this.The Russian police inspector said "As soon as a crime is done, we catch the culprit in a week".The American police inspector said "As soon as a crime is done we catch the culprit in a hour"The Indian police inspector said "We know one week before where the crime is going to take place and who the culprit is "
Our Movies:
We have many many wonderful movies to watch. In 20 languages to be precise. The movies will make you go crazy ( literally). We have Hero's and Heroines who dance around trees and change 10 dresses in a 5 minute song. Sometimes when they are singing in the street too, they somehow change 10 dresses in the blink of a second. Superman should know more about this.But there are some good movies too.
Our Women:
They say that Muslim ladies wear burkhas for safety. Indian ladies wear sholapur leather sandals for safety. That is by far the most fatal weapon in the hands of a lady second to the kitchen roller. You will find many young men with the distinct impression of a sandal on their cheeks. (Like legendary comic book hero Phatom's skull impression).Ladies here do not encourage Plato's philosophy (A girl and a guy can go out and do nothing, absolutely nothing. Its platonic).But there are some beautiful gems in the dust. You just have to have the patience to dig them out.
Our Country:
Is Crazy, Imagine this 28 languages, 4000 dialects, 28 states all speaking Greek and Latin, somehow we are the Europe of South Asia. We have an army which speaks this 28 languages. Ever wonder how we fight when a war starts.Point to ponder
