Yeah, that would definitely be worth moving for, although the switchboard situation doesnt sound great. For 2k/month I'd definitely be expecting a 2 bed. Same location?

Unfortunately not, but it's not too far from the old place.

Fair enough, these days you do need to move a bit further out to get a decent deal. I know someone who bought a rather shabby 2br w/ parking in Carlton and rents it out for 550/week. Prices are nuts...

And then there's that balcony in Sydney for 300/week lol.

God I'm glad I don't need to deal with that. As nice as the weather is...
