Saw the promo on a bill board while heading into work today.
I suggest going to the link and reading the T's & C's for further info.
need suckers to keep the balloon inflating, or at least pass on the balloon to them before it explodes
Blame boomers
The last generation that actually worked for a living, didn’t expect everything subsidied and lived through extremely high mortgage rates?
No I’m not a baby boomer, I’m a self hating millennial.
This satire is so deep I nearly missed it
Can't complain about $1000 free money. Thats a pretty good deal
NO good for Gold Coast properties??
Well Gold Coast isn’t Brisbane Council, so no.
Well damn, we just settled on our first house yesterday so looks like I'm eligible for this! Thanks OP.
If you can't afford Brisbane rates you can't afford to buy in Brisbane
This is such a useless comment to make. No one is buying a house to get a 12 month rates discount. If the savings from discounted rates help people afford other things like renovations or landscaping then why not? This is a website made for the purpose of spending less money, and this fits directly into that category.
This is a website for bargains, and this is not really a bargain, based on that
This would also only be rates not water supply and usage

If they can’t afford the rates for the first 12 months, how do they expect to pay them for the remainder of the time they live there. We need to stop encouraging people to buy houses they can’t actually afford long term (when interest eventually go up).
