"Bushfire will clear that up in no time" - Scott Morrison
I hate that this is funny
Hahaha.. noice. Deffo not too soon.
While sipping a martini on a beach chair in Ibiza..
"But until then they have something I won't in a few months, a seat" - Bruz
**Morrison lecturing the Australian population about responsibility intensifies**
Property owners: This is awful! Look at all this wood, now I'm going to have to clean it up!
Lithgow people: I'll take some of it away for you for free
Property owners: How dare you, this is our private property
Never know with Lithgow people...
much of that timber has arsenic still in it. So burning it in Lithgow wouldn't make a dent to Lithgows already low average IQ.
@@Tester-sh1mn You always know they are cold and the like to burn wood.
Yeah. This story is a total clusterf*k isn’t it? ACA is such trash.
🤣🤣🤣
The solution to all that wood literally rolls up to their doorstep as they're filming and ACA acts like they're busting kiddie fiddlers.
And zero sympathy to the "property manager" who can't even do her _literal_ job and check on tenants before renting the property, or ensure they're paying rent on time.... or for that matter, she couldn't even forsee how inept this makes her look for potential future clients, if I was a landlord I wouldn't want her within a mile of my property.
Probably owns 5 houses on loans that shes just paying interest on so she can sell them for 3 times market value later, meaning people have to rent.
also rent is 1 month late and they got a court case for eviction in another 2 months. you can't go to course for anything in less than 6 months.
The issue is if this is actually from fences, it's likely treated, which means it's not safe for firewood
@@Chalk_in_boots that's a minor detail!
@@Chalk_in_boots whats a little arsenic smoke between neighbours?!
Wait, so a property manager didn't check their rental history?
You win the comments
She was getting Botox that day , you know more important stuff that checking their rental history……. So let’s go on a dumb ass show to fix my dumb ass mistake…..😂🤣😂 gotta love ACA
You probably own an investment property, you dick.
@@looksirdroids9134 1, was a joke, and 2, no I'll die not even owning a house :(
'their god awful gothic colours'
- shows picture of a Brisbane Broncos flag
ah yes, the Brisbane Broncos, a well know cultural hub of the Australian Goth scene
Considering how they’ve been playing, I would not be surprised if they’ve turned to the dark side
To fucking right they are! Too many people take XXXX for granted, now depression has taken their lives...
I thought i had a broncos flag in my hand but it was just a used piece of toilet paper with corn pieces and partially dissolved skittles on it.
🤣
Bro there was a brisbane goth picinic like a month ago and we had a broncos flag
"HES GOTTA DO SOMETHING TO CLEAN THIS MESS UP OR ITS GONNA COST US"
Meanwhile he's literally getting people to come pick it up for free.
That doesnt make it okay to vandalise property like that.
They also lose money being unable to rent until it is cleared. So either lose money clearing it yourself of lose money waiting for old people to pick up a couple logs a week.
Why do people seem to think this is an okay thing to do to someone, just because they own property? Let me know if you ever get educated and wealthy enough to own property so i can gladly fuck up everything you worked for and see how you knobs like it.
@@simonwilkinson2762 I’m definitely not saying he’s in the right. But it for sure isn’t bad enough to call for a whole documentary to be made about it
don't let facts get in the way of an ACA story lol
@UCXV9YdAuHXAPs6_gooyv5NA I don't know about you, but the people they told to fuck off and leave it alone weren't old people, it was a 30 something trade and his wife, like that looks like a perfect opportunity to grab hold of to get rid of all the wood? He'll likely know plenty of other people and there's likely only a few trailer loads, it's a Sundays worth of work bro
@@xxXBig_BenXxx mate you get a dozen people tell them you will throw a few slabs on after and it will be done by lunchtime
I think ACA would save themselves a fortune In Their travel budget if they just set up shop out the front of Centrelink and started randomly insulting unemployed people as they leave the building…
Might be a bit obvious though. ACA have been doing this forever.
I think they may have already done this on a slow news days
They'd save even more time if they investigated themselves. #shockjournalismception
But then they’d have to get close to the dirty poors, and they simply *can’t* do that? Not that riff raff! They can’t be caught dead near them or the boomers might skin them alive for showing athimble’s worth of sympathy, and don’t you no? The poor just need to die, don’cha know?
For the record, this train of thought sickens me, but I’m almsost certain it’s what they’re thinking.
@@sparkleshyguy85 It's probably more like: this show needs something to catch people's attention and activate their emotions so they respond to the next ad they see. It's on 5 days a week and we need about 12 to 15 minutes of content to space the ads out.
“Fences are normally up”
- $250,000 a year.
"Watching a Hawthorns match"
She couldn't even come up with the obvious "Fences are all around us"
I love this, a current affair, stopping crooks giving people some free timber. Outstanding work as usual
I just love the high horse they get on. "So they told you you could come and get this wood for free? That's terrible."
"oh no, how can I get rid of all this rubbish"
Random poor old people turn up to TAKE THE RUBBISH FOR FREE
"Hey you can't do that, this is there property not his"
Huh?
heck, i'd take the lot of it. that's like 800 bucks worth of old dry wood there. I'd finally be able to heat my man cave.
@@TheHungrySlug I'd build a solid unit complex in Wolli Creek with all that timber.
@@sofascialistadankulamegado1781 strewth, there's probably enough there for us to do BOTH!
I'd love someone to drop off a few hundred piles of old fence timber in my back paddock. So I can't see why they are complaining.
STONKS!
Dammit I would take just to use our smoker
Yeah thanks ACA , please don't take their rubbish go away
Oh shit! A guy laundering fences?! Not even fencing the fences?! A CURRENT AFFAIR BREAKS THE BIG STORIES!
A fence fence. Thank you :D
@@anthonycondon5833 If I could've worked out how to fit in a fencing joke as well, I would have. Sadly, I suspect that the landowner is now en garde to such ripostes.
@@anthonycondon5833 This reply is underated. Jordies get on this, this guy needs a careeer change.
Landlord: "I don't know how someone can live with themselves, like, putting so much financial strain and stress on someone else"
Also landlord: it's thursday again gimme $500 or your homeless
*you're
This will get more views than the actual ACA episode.
Any idea what the usual viewership for ACA is? Honestly have no clue.
@@HOTD108_ 600,000 nationally give or take each episode
At least people can actually comment on the story here when compared to ACA Y-T channel. Since all of their content has comments turned off.
It's like they they prefer people to be outraged rather than having a conversational debate, down in the comments section.
Yes, but now because I am sitting though the ads for Jordan, I will get ACA in my "suggestions" for the next week.
@@ithinkdoyou You could, if you want to, click on the dots near the recommended video and select "I'm not interested" and if you also want to, go to the "tell us why" and select either "I've already watched the video" OR
"I don't like the video".
Just giving a suggestion.
Having said that, I wont be surprised if I get a recommend too.
Lol, property manager can’t manage her own property… not ironic at all…
It's a real hoot, ain't it!
Was wondering if the social media photos were hers or the tenants.
Either way, someone's probably running an only fans account, perhaps.
@@TheHungrySlug wondering which company she works for, they do free rent apparently…
She had ONE job
Give her a break. You unfortunately cant kill bogans because of some stupid laws someone made up. Everyone knows bogans are descendants of petty criminals of the first Australian penal colony. They are protozoa.
@@sofascialistadankulamegado1781 we are talking about the landlord here, right? 😉
They should've started the segment with:
"This pile of rubbish is....
Of-fence-sive.
I'll see myself out...
gold
Yeah nah, on the fence about this one
@@corneliuscapitalinus845 which side side did you land on when it fell?
😄😆
This joke was worth all the trouble that this whole debacle has caused literally every person involved.
Imagine if they used those investigative reporting skills on politicians rorting the system.
I imagine they would get arrested for harrassment and stalking
Timber has doubled in price (at least) recently, they would probably make money.
not probably, definitely
fkn ebay or gumtree that shit and youve got some bank
@@aaryanramesh7761 Put an add up for free firewood and it’d be gone by the end of the day.
100% i was looking at it and going thats some nice fuckin timber lol i'll come collect it for nothing
No but you don't understand. It's ugly and they dont like looking at it so it has to go now to be destroyed at a cost of 40k. That way, they don't have to see it there and nobody else can have something nice for free.
Nothing more noble than purchasing a property, improving it to a standard you would not live in yourself but know that a “renter” would. Effectively denying anyone else’s chance at purchasing it until after you have leveraged it. Nobleman vs renters(serfs). How did it work out in the past?
Well when the revolution came to China, landlords were one of the first to be paraded through the streets in the 'jet plane' pose while all their property was stripped from them.
"improving it to a standard you would not live in yourself but know that a “renter” would" - God, how accurate is that? In my last rented house, that "standard" was just cheap carpet over the gappy floorboards and a messy paint job on the drywall...
@@madamebkrt - it’s Australia’s national sport.
@@edwardhewer8530 Sad but true.
I don't know, but i have a hankering for bbq.
Two properties, how hard life is.
I'm convinced the only people who watch a current affair are old people affraid of getting ripped off by shady tradies they don't need yet and minor real estate investors who are affraid of scummy tenants they may or may not accidentally lease too
I love in the second story how they fully try and frame it like some hardcore investigative journalism when in reality they probably made 3 to 5 phone calls and the story was done 😂
imagine having 2 properties lol
imagine being a property manager who cannot run a background check on potential tenants. love to know what agency she's storming the ladder of with those completely adequate property management skills
Essentially the rich have become complacent and that's made them ignorant, arrogant and for the most part stupid. Unless they've worked their way up they've inherited or invested well (or both) and that's like any bogan winning lotto in the end.
Why did the property managers partner have to remind her that they were behind on the rent!!! OMG Bogan Property Management Co. !!!!
Imagine owning one.
@@P.Subaeruginosa I don't think she is wealthy. More like an aspirational bank debt slave.
"I don't know how someone can actually live with themselves, like, the guilt of doing something like that and putting so much financial strain and stress on someone else." Said the landlord without a shred of irony.
Same thing went through my head.
Sums of all our thoughts for that segment pretty well.
or the commercial landlords who jack the rent up because the business that is renting their property is doing a roaring trade and hey, why shouldn't the landlord have a piece of that?
I had the exact same thought. I've never met anyone who can hypocrite quite as well as a goddamn landlord.
I'm a landlord, and even I think she's insane. She has absolutely no idea what other people are like, or why they might make certain decisions. Some people do genuinely struggle with trying to pay the rent and experience a lot of shame (which is part of why they don't want to talk about it), while some are just dickheads trying to rip people off because they know they can (it works both ways, obviously). It's important to communicate, and if things break down then take it to court, which is exactly what is happening. She is frustrated that she can't throw them out immediately.
Also, some rental management companies are shit at passing on information between landlord and tenant. A family member of mine found out they had a rental agent who would just drive past the property, slow down and look out the window, and that was their inspection. With someone like that it will only be a few weeks until the tenant is making complaints that the landlord isn't doing anything about the leaking roof, cracking walls, rat infestation, etc because they've never actually been told, and the agent just pockets an inspection fee.
Well of course missing rent is up there with war crimes, etc... These poor landlords missing out on someone else paying their mortgage for them. Oh the humanity!
Yeah people should just be able to live in other peoples property for free ! True !
@@alexandermitchell3845 Rent shouldn't be so ridiculously expensive, why is it that i was paying 165.00 a week, on 900 a fortnight, now rent is between 400 to 450. A week and pay is 1000. a fortnight. That happened within a 20 year period, wheres the bloody logic?
yes! Ownership does not in fact entitle you to other peoples money.
@@Ledabot it literally does when theyre living in a house you own
Imagine being in such financial hardship it's takes 2 months for you to realise your tenant hasn't paid their rent... hard times indeed.
Howard's battlers.
They're probably on a monthly rent
@@blordo and still took two missed monthly payment to notice?. Maybe alot has changed since I was renting, but 24 hours late and the real estate was calling, emailing, and sending out post. As a property manager, it doesn't say much about her competence if she csnt even notice her own property's over due rent.
I know. "WAAAAH! WAAAAAAAAAAAH! PITY ME, THE LANDLORD! I KNOW I LIVE OFF THE SURPLUS VALUE OF PEOPLE WHO HAPPENED TO BE BORN POOR, BUT I'M THE TRUE VICTIM!"
Landlords are social mosquitoes, should be shot.
@@TheGloriousLobsterEmperor I don't know if being shot is appropriate, but definately no sympathy. I love the other one who complains about the loss in rent from an early lease break. . . Umm the house is empty. Get new tenents. It's not a wage owed to u for owning another house. And early lease breakers have to pay for leaving early, and or cover ad costs or find someone to take over. They dont just hand the keys in and jog on. Should set up a go fund me for unhappy landlord tissue boxes.
Imagine the biggest issue in your life being "Oh no, I have to do some manual labour for once in my life, hire some skips and an excavator with a claw attachment and spend a few weekends cleaning up" instead of "shit, how do I pay for petrol, groceries and my child's school shoes this week?". Imagine that being so bad that you have to go to ACA, rather than take some practical steps.
Exactly. People will take the wood and steel. The steel will pay for the removal of concrete
@@Low760 The point is that the Owner shouldn’t have to.
@@KK-og2gg of course. But why do people think things are always risk free?
Wait… how are the owners copping the blame?
@Xi Vonoc said like someone who feels offended by the attack on landlords. School shoes isn't literal. It's the point that the average wage is under 70k, just the vocal minority earning more like to shame people, or the average is down because of legal yet dodgy ways to get Thier tax bracket down
"we have an entier extra house that we don't need, oh won't someone think of our plight?"
A current affair: giving people with the means to help themselves a chance to have a gripe about a clear and obvious mistake they made in judgement.
Kinda funny considering you can get scrap companies that will “pay you” to remove stuff like metal n wood.
Also tenants do the place up really nice doesn’t match landlords taste so it’s damaged
It didnt even have railings on the front deck, isnt that illegal?
Something makes me think there is more to the story.
I'd love to see an ACA where they find the stories and expose terrible landlords
Your not getting the point of the vidoe are you?
@@waydegod oh no I get it. But it doesn't change the fact that ACA presents landlords as victims who can do no evil while tenants are the scum of the Earth
@@Mia_Mor666 Its definitely an untapped market, I mean we all know shit tenants but I think a lot of people have shit landlords and the stories would probably be gold
Never gonna happen.
Re: the second story - Why is a property manager taking this to ACA instead of straight to QCAT? ACA can't solve it. All they can do is kick tyres (at servos).
Likely because it's not the full story
Probably not the brightest spark. Why wouldn't you run a rental property through a reputable Estate agent?
Greed for the full cut of rent and maybe no rental insurance either, that's my guess.
@@TheHungrySlug To be fair, REAs charge a lot for doing fuck all. 20% of rental value as a baseline, and individual charges for every inspection, condition report etc. No way I'd pay one of them that rate.
@@D3Mp5 Guess that's why I love living out in the sticks. Stuff those city prices!
But if you do use a Real estate Agent and things go bad, you've got your bum covered and it falls on them to sort some of it out.
That's why we have them and use them. They MUST follow the rules, regulations and applicable laws, in order to remain in business, if they don't they can then be held liable.
@@TheHungrySlug Mate, not sure if you deal with tenancy issues much, but I can assure you, the Property Manager will not be held responsible for acting incorrectly - other than if you make a complaint to REBA. They do retarded, incorrect shit all the time. I see it on a weekly basis.
They're acting as an agent for the Landlord. The landlord is the respondent to any action brought against them by the tenant. At least in WA. The other thing is that percentage applies everywhere, including regional centres (Which is where I am btw).
They've got firewood for the next 10 years ! That's a gift if anything
Isn't fencing treated and toxic to burn ?
@@Sanguinarius9999 most old fencing is good hard wood that isn't treated.
True that. Wish I had a bit of it.
I like how they use the classic “news reporter voice” to trick you into thinking it’s proper news, like rent dodgers are a NEW thing! As Ricky Gervais says - this should be called the olds!
Breaking out the worlds smallest violin for all these poor landlords lumbered with multiple million dollar properties they could easily sell
It must be so hard
I think they're locked in to the rent paying off the money borrowed to buy? So the resentment people enjoy is only half right. But as long as all the slaves are scratching each other's eyes out nobody will watch that water video jordies did.
How dare a man give away free wood that a weasley couple with investment properties could hawk for even more dollars.
But the very THOUGHT of all that wood sitting on their investment property while they live in a much nicer suburb some distance away!!
Oh no! The horror of negative gearing! What ever shall they do? I know, let’s ring up Tracy Grimace! I’m sure she’s got a trick or two up her sleeves!
Haha grimace!
@@guyonthecouch136 Or Grimarse!
The bloke in the second "article" should call the police. He is CLEARLY being harassed by a turd in a human skin. And then this is why you don't do private rentals, and only do it through an estate. But then this case the woman was just DUMB.
@@moodycxnt yeah she was dumb enough to privately rent a place rather than using the "agency" she works for.
@@moodycxnt so if a dumb person takes advantage of another dumb person does it cancel out or make it even more heinous?
@@TH-camTookMyNickname.WhyNot the whole property market is based on this, everyone's getting screwed as its about greed and not just a stable home..even owners are now buying over inflated properties from dodgy developers who let through defective buildings not up to code for a kickback who let real estates take a cut to rent out.. ive gone to the tribunal or had to threaten it in every rental ive ever been in.. learn the property laws as best you can and cover your arse,, stay on em and get what ya want.. if you dont get it because you know the rules they let ya walk with a good reference..
Ohh no... some one left with 6 months on a lease... dang if only I could get some one else to fill it.
They do private rentals so they don't have to pay tax.
Good to see A Current Affair are reporting on the important stories.
They are not commissioned to be Four Corners or 60 Minutes mate. If Jordan thinks they are too lowbrow then he's the Woollahra toff.
This is actually hilarious. It's like they're convinced the only way to clean the yard up is to hire 7 goons with a semi truck and 2 bobcats.
You'd need maximum 3 skips and 2 days of work to clean that up. Or, as Jordan said, just fucking sell the wood lmao. They'd be the stupidest property managers if they can't work out how to make money on this, rather decide putting money into getting it removed. The fencing guy has done them a favour
get a few cases of beer and invite few mates around for a bonfire
Genuinely. Making a fuss over what could be a decent weekend
the bloke they pay $40k to remove it will be fuckin pissing himself getting randoms off facey to come collecting for $100 per uteload
That's not how it works old mate... the property owner/manager gets the quote from the 7 gooons three bobcats a d10 and a 50 ton excavator crew, then sues the tennant for the value of the quote then puts the timber on fb for gronks from lithgow to collect
All valid points. However, if it's Lithgow, it's about 20 minutes, 3 gronks and a bongs worth of effort
Jordies laughing at the infinitely self-pitying plight of upper middle class property investors gives me life.
That said, the act of watching the banal clown show play out, narrated by a Maleficent cosplayer, makes my brain bleed.
They worked hard and smart making them able to have a property to rent. Both sides need to be good. If your house got trashed would you be happy?
@@Josh-rn1em It's hard to view anyone on ACA as very capable when their conflict resolution strategy includes calling in a film crew to adjudicate their dirty laundry on national TV. It's barely a hop, skip and a jump to Jerry Springer from that point.
@@tungstentoaster they have tried a lot of things. I understand your point and it's always dodgy builders and welfare scams etc. But if someone cost you $10000 just because they're being cunts, that's not good is it. We shouldn't have an us vs them mentality. It breeds bad things.
@@Josh-rn1em I'll grant that the first story looks like a douche move but how did it get that bad with regular inspections? Oh, you didn't do them? I guess your landlord's insurance is now void. You didn't have insurance? Tough tiddies. Look after your investment or reap what you sow.
I can't even try to sympathise with the second story. The "property manager" didn't even vet the people moving into her property. Turns out they're grifters who falsified their application. Look after your investment or reap what you sow.
Property management is an investment of both money and time. Rental agents would have picked up on neglectful tenants and false references. These should be cautionary tales for anyone lucky enough to be able to invest in property: Avoid private renting. If you're willing to cut corners, you're not going to be a good landlord and your tenants will reflect that. Sell up and invest in more hands-off assets.
@@tungstentoaster fair enough
I agree. It’s like saying “Friendly jordies is normally a Warhammer channel. Warhammer is meant to be enjoyable.” And so forth.
Imagine feeling bad for landlords and property managers.
I'm not a landlord but some tenants are disgusting pigs with absolutely no respect for anything
Wait wait, the tenants are giving names of family members, and then the property manager never checked the references..... So the tenants are blamed? Like, isn't it their job?
(Referring to the second story) Why don’t the landlords just lower the rent a bit for a little bit if the person is going through a rough patch? Apart from paying certain bills the number you set for rent as a landlord is entirely up to you (there’s no law saying you have to charge the market rate as far as I know). Australia’s shortage of public housing means that if you can’t afford rent you become homeless, the relationship between landlord and tenant isn’t an equal one unless there’s an alternative for the renters. If not being paid rent is messing with their finances and they’re rich, imagine what paying rent *high enough to mess with those rich people’s finances* does to the renters’ finances (finances bad enough that they can’t afford rent).
Because landlords arent in the property market to make people happy, they're in it to make money.
Mate those tenants weren't just down on their luck, they had done this a ton of times before which is why the had the uncle pretend he was their last landlord. i don't doubt if they were put into public housing they wreck that to. I have zero sympathy for the landlords though cause it wasn't like you couldn't easily find this out just checking out the tenant's publicly available social media stuff like the ACA did. That women thinks it a good idea to mention she is a property manager is hilarious, cause what clients or employer are going to have anything to do with her now?
@@user-uy6uc5ey5q I don't know about you but almost everyone we I know uses friends or family to be their previous "landlord".
@@user-uy6uc5ey5q It really doesn’t matter how many times they’ve done it before, nobody deserves to be homeless in this country. Even murderers get shelter in jail but people who commit the crime of not having enough money deserve to live on the street just because they’re kind of flaky? That’s not to say jail is better than being homeless, only that we deem even *the worst people in society* deserving of *food and shelter* , but we can’t do the same for people who’ve done nothing wrong for all we know.
When you make housing cost more than basic survival, you create tenants with literally nothing to lose.
And people usually choose survival over death.
Omfg that chick needs to get a job in sales. Fast talker, quick thinker...all she has to do is pass a police check. Oh. Right.
The take away from this video is don't be a landlord...
A Current Affair actually blocked me from Facebook for calling them out for not showing that video they did on Lewis Spears.
They're "Aspirational Australians". I am in my sixties and bad tenants have been around for ages. When I was a renter in my twenties (flats AKA apartments not houses) it was very common. One 'flat' my (then fiancés) and I took over had a Doberman inside while they went out. Needless to say it smelt of dog urine and the carpets were torn up. It would have cost the landlord much more than the bond the tenant put up. THESE ARE THE DANGERS OF RENTING OUT.
"When the owners rented out their property, it was a quaint house on a good amount of open land. Now, you wooden picket for anything but a tip."
Haha :-)
Well done sir 😂
The person you based Aunty Shelly off sounds like the maddest of lasses, I’d share a beer with her anytime.
That wood will go quick, very quick.
We had a tree crack in half and fall down in our front yard. People turned up THAT NGHT, drawn by the lights of the fire truck to pick up what the CFS left behind.
Land Lords are struggling out there make sure you pay them their rent they need to survive too life must be hard being able to have 2 or more properties.
It cheap telly you can knock off in an afternoon.
I could clean that all up for about a grand. I'll take 20k and save them 20k
Fully holy duck
Mountain out of a molehill
Then sell it all for 20k. To trendy rich people who want to make everything out of reclaimed pallets or whatever.
Jordies' upload schedule: as inconsistent as Scott Morrison's prime ministership.
at least Jordies is busy, unlike a certain somebody...
The brother of the guy who used to shoe my horses was on Farmer Wants a Wife, ACA did a hit piece on him not being a ~real farmer~ (also a DV claim, but I cannae speak to that). It's high-stakes journalism
What? When was it?
@@mikehuntisitchy3965 It's the Farmer Sam piece
oldmates been mixing nutella into her foundation, look like a chocolate bar
Imagine complaining about free shit
hahaha "fences come in all shapes and sizes" "oh thanks ACA I didn't know fences could be different I just thought all of them were barbed wire and decaying wood, me and the other farmers didn't know this"
"I don't know how they can live with themselves... live with the guilt of putting such financial strain on good people" said the person who literally makes a living by squeezing rent money out of the lower-class.
Woy Woy: ‘The place so nice, they named it twice’
As someone who grew up in Lithgow.... it's kind of eerie how often Lithgow comes up on this channel
Imagine going down the shops only to have a reporter and TV crew ambush you and start grilling you on your rental history. Big props to the 11 guy for keeping so calm.
ACA: the lowest stakes, guaranteed.
as in fencing stakes lying on the ground?
All that expensive wood left behind. Land lord has hit the jackpot.
This is wonderful lockdown content. Thanks gang!
A Current Affair: where the heroes are bottom-feeding, parasitic property managers and the villains are some blokes late on rent.
I love the way the reporters walk towards the camera with hands clasp together then unclasped as the tenor in their voice rises in seriousness .
Webster's dictionary defines Fences as " the participants in a fencing competition"
"Man rents property and uses it to temporarily store objects"
Uh... yes?
It’s low hanging fruit but so juicy when it’s squeezed by Jordie
I know the video is 5 months old, BUT THE SURNAME OF THE OWNER IS WOODLEY, SURELY THEY LOVE ALL THAT TIMBER
It’s hard to feel too sorry for someone who, “in this day and age” owns multiple properties, especially when they go on a show that is notorious for stereotyping all renters.
Do not burn CCA-treated timber.
The ash from burnt CCA-treated timber can contain up to 10 per cent arsenic, chromium and copper.
ACA must be the lowest hanging fruit for Jordy. Well apart from Bruz.
What about MAFS or The Bachelor?
As a trainer carpenter i can tell you that wood is almost worthless. Might be some bits and pieces in there but nothing you could use for making more than a small shed or a fire.
The very pinnacle of investigative journalism.
Imagine if they turned their gaze on to dodgy politicians instead of down and out commoners.
Although there is a morbid fascination in punching down; it makes me feel slightly better about myself and my status within society....
In my household we used to watch the 6pm news on channel 7 or 9, with half its runtime filled with ads & sports garbage, followed directly by A Current Affair on channel 9, a program equally ad filled, filler on where to find a bargain, going after dole bludgers, petty crims, etc...I can now say we've made the transition to 7pm being for ABC news and reclaiming around an hour of our lives at least per night not wasted with channel 9 and channel 7. It's quite nice.
12:00 Having a roof over your head isn’t a game - I do feel for home owners who rent and have a mortgage to pay, but if you haven’t noticed - people are struggling all around the world, and I don’t think it’s very nice to be excited about evicting a family with children…I understand that they have a responsibility to look after the property, but I don’t like how happy that “land manager” was and, saying they picked the wrong people to play games with, when referring to people who very well may be homeless soon…call me crazy, but I don’t think that’s something that should bring you joy…?!
Those "people" are literally derro bogans, the scum of society. They will lie, cheat, steal and not feel an ounce of regret. You can tell by the amount, and quality, of permanent retard stickers (tattoos) which have a high correlation with: low impulse control, risk taking behaviour, drugs & alcohol abuse, crime.
@@Anonymous-sv9fy That may be true, but I feel bad for any child in that circumstance - it’s not their fault - I already said that I don’t think it’s okay to do that, and I feel extremely bad for the property owners, but I also feel bad for everyone really…I can’t help it, I always try to put myself in their position and because I don’t know for sure, I always want to assume that they are good people, and that maybe they are going through hard times…
I think it’s a flaw, and I recognise that I am a sucker for anyone in need, I want to help anyone and everyone - it’s been often at my own expense, but I just can’t help it…
Literally people trying to pick up the wood
But how will we ever clean up this wood without the 40k+ we were quoted??
“A Hawthorn’s match” something only a new south welshman could say.
Sell the timber for firewood, metal for scrap & remove the concrete yourself
"were you a guest judge on my kitchen rules" 😂😂😂😂😂
I don't know what the big deal is. Getting old fence pailings from jobs sites was one of my dads favourite past times. Free aussie hardwood for the slow combustion heater. Cut to perfect size on the circular saw (obviously don't use the good blade for fence pailings). He didn't litter the backyard with tons of fences, but maybe he just didn't want to ruin the good saw blade to cut it all down to size.
It's funny how many current affair stories could've been solved by something called, THE POLICE
When I was little, someone stole part of our back fence for a party a few doors down.
NOW I KNOW WHO DID IT
Where’s Dave’s Dinnerz? Did he join the Senegalese militia
"Webster's Dictionary defines 'fencing' as..."
"Fences are used to protect your property but who is going to protect the landlord from the fences".. pay me
"but who is going to come to the de-fence of the landlord?" I'll take a consulting fee.
Can we all collectively refer to Daniel Andrews as Daddy Slamdrews from now on?
@@DollyRanch lmao what?
"Fences are normally up,in this instance, they're down"
Having experienced the bad end of the stick with ACA, I can vouch that they have a tendency to pick up one side of the story and run with it to make the story as appealing to Armchair Karen's as possible. Totally ignoring what is actually going on, and never doing any sort of research into how legit is the story in the first place..... 🤔
The dude from the second story is using the Gladys Technique 'This is ridiculous, I don't know what you're on about'. Surely it should work for him, too?
Why aren’t we getting Aunty Shelly’s reviews of Aussie tv shows?
My sister (28) died suddenly a week before her lease was up. Spoke to real estate to explain to them the situation and to get their preferred bond cleaner. On the same day she claimed the entire bond for CLEANING, break lease and advertising fees.
Why do you have to be a scumbag to be in property?
Bag the wood up as kindling and sell 4kg $10. Crush concrete up for road base on property. Sell metal as scrap.
"and neighbors also complained about smell and noise comming from the house"
primetime australian news
I had a choice between continue my piano practice for drop it and watch this… I made the obviously right choice.
Your interludes might suffer, but you are safe in this knowledge of outrageous behaviour.
I was a property investor who took a huge risk for massive reward, made heaps and then complains when there investment isn't a guarantee. They don't even live in the same town
Fuckin love Aunty Shelly, would kill for more skit vids with her. I watch that Woolies vs Coles vid any time I need a good laugh.
Woolies is better
A Current Affair, definitely 'The Gold Standard'.I'd bet Scumo love's it?....🤣
