My thought for the week

As I walk each day and gaze at the local streets' happenings there is a repetitive trend, of which I have mixed feelings about.  Why?

1.  The number of FOR SALE signs coming and going weekly..
2.  Agents hungry for listings, letter box drops, phone calls, emails showing results of recently sold properties.  It is a HOT market around here.
3.  Skips and bins appearing on the footpath.
4.  Survey pegs being driven in as good sized blocks are being cut into two blocks.
5.  Demolition gets under way in most cases.  In a few cases the houses are being bought and refurbished or lifted and extended.
6.  Earth moving machines start demolition, trucks appear to take away the pile of sticks and concrete, and levelling for the foundations are under way.
7. Tradies utes and vans decorate our street on a daily basis.

Another home bites the dust.  It is hard to come to terms with solid, strong structures ending up as rubble.

This is what is sending the new home buyers and especially first home buyers further out of the inner city suburbs.  Mind you this suburb was an outer area in the 1950/60's!
