ive got a massive problem guys and really dont know what to do, so i thought id post it and see what people would do if in the same position.

I want to buy a house got the deposit could get the loan BUT!!!!

i have quite a large personal loan at the moment and most banks that ive spoken to would give me the loan in a second if it wasnt so damn high.

so the question is do i dare sell the stivo and pay a massive chunk of this personal loan off, then go buy a house with no hassels with getting mortage or repayments.

OR do i bite the bullet and keep the stivo(which i really dont wanna sell) and wait until ive paid the personal loan out in a couple of years then look at buying a house?

desicions desicions?????

i really wanna get a house now im so so so so so so sick of renting and i moved back with my fam a little while ago to start saving for a house.and im sick of it i wanna be out on my own in my own house

but at the same time i love my stivo and have just added wheels/exhaust muffler/jdm grill/ huge stereo. its my pride and joy.

so does a house and independance more important than my stivo? :( :( :( :(

Get a second job man...

Regardless of what type of car it is, although it is a positive that it is a Sportivo, you will always regret selling something you treasure for a house.

While a house is a really sensible investment and a car isn't, there is not any point in my mind if you pour all your cash into a house, but do not enjoy your lifestyle.

Pickup a second job stacking shelves a Coles or something after hours to help save a while....

My wife and I are in a similar boat, and our decision was based on that I wanted the Sportivo for ages before I got it, so why get rid of it...

Cheers

A :P

I'd put off buying a house until at least the new year to see the effect of the government farking around the industrial relations laws. I forsee a fair few people loosing work or transferring to casual employment (even more so) and a spin off effect could be that the market will become flooded with people wanting to sell up and hence prices staying level, or perhaps even dropping, especially in Sydney and Melbourne. Interest rates will also rise again around September/October because more people will be taking out loan, particularly investors, as the house prices drop.

It's too volatile at the moment to buy and you could find yourself loosing a hell of a lot of capital in the short term (2-5 years) though long term property is always a good investment.

my $0.02

maybe you could take a loan from ur parents and use that to pay off the personal loan (to enable you to qualify for the home loan). at least this way, you won't have to pay any interest (hopefully).

are you saying that you don't qualify for the loan because the amount you reqested to loan is too high, or your personal loan is too high?

ps. i hope i'm not saying anything stupid :)

Go for both and be poor like me and be in debt for the next 5-10 yrs. :huh: But in the end it is all of your hardwork paid off. While you have paid off your house and car the next few yrs... the others have just started B)

in reply to that he can't take out a loan because of his personal loan. but why don't you sell the car, borrow more money when u get the house and buy a new 05 sportivo?

Use the deposit to pay the Stivo off, go to Aussie or some of the other mortgage places that do rentbuster mortgages, purchase house, pay mortgage and enjoy driving the Stivo at the same time :).

ok thanks for your sugestions but need to sort a few issues out.

1st: for the first home buyers grant ya need to live in the house for 12 months min.

2nd: personal loan isnt to large to get the house loan but if i get house loan plus personal loan repayments how do i pay bills/fuel/eat and so on.

3rd: personal loan is way to big to ask parents to bail me out.lol

4th: will still need a car even if i sell mine so some of the cash from selling the car needs to go to another car.

5th: ya cant borrow the difference ontop of the house loan unless the house is valued more than your buying it for which it wouldnt be.

I don't think the FHO grant is $12000. It's only $7000. Been going through all the nonsense atm.

Eddy hold off buying for about 5 months as I've been told to. All sources that I've talked to reckon the market will drop some more yet. So hopefully cheaper houses!!!(and yeah keep the stivo unless it's dire)

Like I said... Wait until you see the fallout from the industrial relations reforms, especially considering you are a shift worker and they will directly affect you!!!!

3.save

4.pay off house or a big chunk of it

5.laugh:LOL:

mate i drove one of those for ages and stopped driving my 1J cressida...bought a house payed off heaps and when i was happy with everything i bought the stivo. now i'm conciddering purchasing another place. get the priorities right and you'll go well. its like speeding in your car you know it wrong to do but try and get away with it correct??? but what if you dont speed ever ....you wont get booked! Just play it safe as thisis the rest of your life your stuffing with and a cool car dont mean **** when you have no where to park it! No one is going to do it for you or look after you but you no one is going to give you a house, get one for yourself.

lol its 12 grand in melbourne only

So Victoria's not such a bad place after all! Having said that, while we only get $7g in Queensland, I think we get better stamp duty concessions than interstaters.

In answer to your original question, its really going to come down to your own priorities. For example, some people prefer to rent the house they want for less than a mortgage for the same house, and invest the remainder in shares or other investments. Gives them the house they want, access to their remaining money and the landlord keeps things maintained.

My wife and I are in a similar boat, except we won't sell the wagon for love nor money. Besides, it might be time to start thinking about making little Buddha's. :)

This is very valid to get ahead may require research and risk, some ppl prefer not to even invest the spare money :blink: though but as buddha says "its really going to come down to your own priorities" mate you have already been thinking about selling her....this is for a reason and these thoughts do not come from no where... ie You know what the right thing to do is, its just freakn hard to do it.

Good Luck

Little buddha's --- bad mental picture!!!! :o In Qld I think your stamp duty is waived if the property is under $250k and your a first home owner. Think that's they way I interpreted it. :D

      am2 fuse blowing

      Hello, i have a 1996 starlet The problem is when i turn the key the fuse blows, and i have been looking over the wiring and can’t find any shorts or damaged wire. The car would not crank over because of the fise blowing. I found out that if i disconnect the transponder key ecu the fuse is holding, but as soon as i connect the transponder the fuse blows. So i wonder if there is something I can try out? should i just buy a new transponder box or is it something else i could try? and is it not kinda wierd that the box is the problem? I have looked inside the box and cant see any corrosion in the box

      Toyota Celica '96 5S-FE no spark

      Hi everyone, I have spent too much time on my Celica and even my mechanic is stumped at figuring out the issue so any tips will be appreciated. Here is what has been done, immobiliser disbabled, distributor replaced, igniter replaced, EFI relay replaced, and EFI 15AMP fuse is not blown. I tried jumping E1 and TE1 in the diagnostic port to try and get a code from the CEL but it doesn't light up, I think it might be burned out so I will have to get on that. I am now clueless about what to do next, it could be the ECU but I can't find any pointers too that.

      GR Corolla GTS Issues

      Update: Somerton Park Jarvis Toyota had the car for a full 9 hours and said they didn't test most of the faults then refused to give me the paper work. Andy the service guy and his manager Tim were dismissive and said they wouldnt investigate the problems. They said the adaptive cruise control braking is a known issue. They confirmed Android Auto wireless will not work with this model which is not what the sales guy told me i was very specific in my wording as i wanted to make sure wireless android auto was supported and was told yes it is supported. They said they cant test unless the car is hot and want me to drive for 90 minutes to 2 hours before bringing it in. Ive dealt with CMI Toyota over the last 5+ years and have had great dealings but this dealership seems like the other end of the spectrum. Upon getting home i noticed the right rear mag has been curbed. This dealership seems really untrustworthy.

      GR Corolla GTS Issues

      Anyone else with a GR Corolla having issues like these? Just had mine for 2 weeks from Somerton Park - Jarvis Toyota and having heaps of issues with the car unfortunately. Its booked in to be checked out tomorrow, but they were meant to test the car prior to delivery of the vehicle. The AWD issues seem to be common to the corolla when i do a quick google search? Issues with Nov 2022 GR Corolla GTS IMT is not functioning after 30 minutes. Light is on but wont match revs on down shift. This is reproducible - happens every single time imt is turned on. Some noise and thud/clunking can feel it occasionally when turning right. Changing gears the drivetrain makes a thud can feel a clunking sound. AWD system issues? Clutch to the floor and gears are crunching going into 2nd and 3rd was after driving for roughly 90 minutes first long drive on Thursday. Has happened again since then. Pressing accelerator revs go up but no acceleration then feels spongy and not responsive? Even when pressing accelerator pedal harder there is no acceleration. Seems to occur when car is hot. Was told by sales that Android Auto wireless will work. It will not work with my Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra - it fails to pair and start then endlessly fails in a loop trying to pair. The software is the latest version on my android phone and have updated car via wifi with the Toyota October 24 updates. Could that have caused other issues when the Toyota update was applied? Music stops playing when going over bumps or speed bumps - this is both annoying and dangerous to press start again when driving and not stationary, happens multiples times each day on commute to/from work… Adaptive cruise control brakes hard sometimes or basically comes to a crawl when there is a car next to you or a parked car or object even though you are 1m+ away from them with current trajectory of the vehicle so no possible collision with the cars/objects. I don't like going from 60 to 30 for no real reason, this happens too often - seems way over tuned for avoidance. I never experienced anything like this with Adaptive cruise control in my 2018 XT Forester. Wind down the passenger window after the car has been wet/rinsed - about 150-200ml water drained down onto the door trim!! i can't even see where that much water could be stored/pooling. So far it seems like this car is a Lemon lol

      New Vehicle Key Remotes

      I've had 2 services and still no 2nd key. Service has no idea and says talk to sales. You'd think they were separate entities. Its nows 14 mths and still nothing. On delivery they gave 12mths roadside assist. That's ok except i had 9ths left on my old car that got trasfered and couldn't be pro rated. They didn't extend roadside asist when there was still no sign of key. If I could get onto Toyota I would but like delivery times they push you onto the dealers.... hopeless!!!

      Help with Head unit Upgrade ?

      Hello there, I have just purchased my first car, a used 2013 Corolla ZR Levin, wonderful machine !!!!!!! But the entertainment unit is a bit dated (see photos), i was interested in upgrading to something with Android auto (probably DIY). But i have no clue how to go about finding the perfect system that'll fit in the dash. Also, if there could be a USB-C connection that could be cleanly mounted into the blank spot next to the heated seat controls to run the unit directly from phone, is that at all possible? Can someone please provide some ideas as to how i might get this done, or if it is even possible............... Thanks fellas

      2019 Kluger 2WD Transmission whine

      update Peter Kittle diagnosed it as a Transaxle noise and they submitted an out of warranty claim. Toyota Aust honored the claim and replaced the transmission(transaxle assembly). My diagnostic fee was also refunded. Thankyou Liam at Peter Kittle for listening and responding to the issue.
