The Hangar Help Me I'm a Milennial Thread

[VelvetSledge]

Hey all,

So the missus and I had the great plan to purchase a house and go through a builder to get into our first home built to our spec. Anyway, 10 months later, the builder has delayed us for far too long and we're just over it. So we're looking to rent.

What suburbs around Melbourne have people found that aren't too bad to live in? Decent pricing?

If it helps, we're both working around Clayton/Glen Waverley area, just wondering what wouldn't be too bad in regards to rent prices and such.

Any help would be the ****.

How decent is decent?

If you don't mind apartments there's a massive glut so they can be had cheap. Like, make a lowball offer and still be the only applicant cheap.

As for suburbs, where you work is a big factor, but I'm a "more than 10km from the city centre is the end of the earth" kind of guy so it comes down to whether you're a northside hipster, southside snowflake or a westie mutant.

No mention of the Eastern Elite?

I've heard the rent around Springvale is pretty good, and that's fairly close to both Clayton and GW

Last I looked Clayton and surrounding areas is full of student accomodation, so I think the appropriate response is "good luck" – good luck!

If you're far enough out to be Eastern rather than Southside you live in grim suburbia and might as well give up on life, tbh.
