There's obviously lots of other features and benefits, 127 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 4: but I'm in the circumstance where it just makes sense 128 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,840 Speaker 4: for me to have private health, Like I end up 129 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 4: saving so much money each year because of it.

They say last year, I wasn't 194 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 4: working full time and couldn't afford a gym membership, so 195 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 4: instead I did thirty day trials at all the different 196 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 4: gyms in my area. 197 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 2: A lot of them were free or really cheap. 198 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 4: I did it for twelve whole months, and I saved 199 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 4: a lot of money and did a lot of different 200 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 4: type of exercises that I didn't think I'd ever enjoy. 201 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 5: I actually highly rate her.

There's 203 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 5: like so many different things that you can do. I 204 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 5: think about like even yoga classes.

She's so cheap. 207 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 4: Genies just trial that just tapes around. I think that's 208 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 4: so smart. At what point, Jess, do you think that 209 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 4: Lee could go back to a certain gym with a 210 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 4: different email address sign up. 211 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 5: I reckon like twelve months, I reckonize once every time 212 00:08:59,480 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 5: I reckon. 213 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 4: Nine months in you could then go and be like, oh, 214 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 4: I was thinking about this like star a sep months ago. 215 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 2: Now I'm just I'm gonna try and get. 216 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 4: Back until let me do the trial see what it's like, 217 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 4: because surely after nine months they haven't remembered your face. 218 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 5: That's theayou tease ho many people? 219 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,199 Speaker 4: Yeah, yep, genius, I love that all right.

I'll also 225 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 4: go through my cupboard and my freezer to see what 226 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 4: I have and plan my meals for the rest of 227 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 4: the week. You'll be surprised at how much you can 228 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 4: save on groceries when you make more of the food 229 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 4: you have and don't just let it go bad. 230 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 5: I love a frozen like anything like if your meat 231 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 5: expires in two days, step in the freezer. No it doesn't, 232 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 5: Like I think that is so smart. Chop up your 233 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 5: garlic or your veggies, can you put them in a 234 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 5: little soup and freeze the soup. I think it's so smart. 235 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 5: When I cook, I often double the recipes. So if 236 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 5: I'm making like a pasta sauce or something, I'll double it, 237 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 5: and later I feel like a genius because I have 238 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 5: double the stuff and I can be like, ah, well, Steve, 239 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 5: you could just get out that past the sauce I 240 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,439 Speaker 5: made and defrust it.

So 270 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 6: in the past two years, I've held two positions and 271 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 6: I've just started a new one. So I usually keep 272 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 6: my positions for about a year two year and a 273 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 6: half and then I try to upscull and find a 274 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 6: better job for better pay obviously, So from last year 275 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 6: to this year, my pay has gone up by about 276 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 6: thirty five to forty k I just want to know 277 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 6: what this looks like to her potential employer and whether 278 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 6: chasing money is really everything, but also keeping in mind 279 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 6: the economy is not doing well, I would love to 280 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:03,079 Speaker 6: know your opinion. Thank you guys so much, love your podcast. 281 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 5: Ah queen, pop Off, pop Off. 282 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 4: Your income's gone up thirty five to forty thousand dollars. 283 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 5: That's a huge I would. 284 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:11,439 Speaker 2: Leave my job too. 285 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, literally, fie genius catcher, I have a nice day. Yeah, 286 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:15,439 Speaker 5: nice knowing you. 287 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm so sorry to see you go bye, kick 288 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,719 Speaker 2: you on the way out. I find that. 289 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 4: Such a good question, especially in this economy, Jessica. Yeah, 290 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 4: so first things first, I wish you had told me 291 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 4: what areas working, because obviously some industries are more impacted 292 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 4: than others. Like if you're talking about let's say, healthcare, 293 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 4: that's universal, like regardless of the I guess economy, that's 294 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 4: going to be a necessity. And obviously job hopping can 295 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 4: be quite hard. It sounds like she's quite smart with it, 296 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 4: because obviously she's a bit more planned than the average bear. 297 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 4: And I'm assuming that you're interviewing for jobs and not 298 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 4: quitting your job and then finding a new one. I 299 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 4: feel like I've said this on the pod before, but 300 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,719 Speaker 4: like it always pays to have a conversation if you 301 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 4: always say no, Like if that job offers you a role, Jess, 302 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 4: and you go, I'm not really keen on that you 303 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 4: can do that, but it's always a good idea to 304 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 4: have the conversation because you might learn that the grass 305 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 4: is really greener where you order it, yeah, or maybe 306 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 4: you get offered a job opportunity. If neither of those 307 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,439 Speaker 4: things are happening, you're getting experience interviewing, and that's a 308 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 4: slagh like. I think all of those are really important. 309 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 4: Do I think that job hopping is a bad thing. No, 310 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 4: I don't. If your job hopping to upskill, then that's great. 311 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 4: I do think that there's a cap on it, though, Jess. 312 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 4: So like, I think at some point you're not going 313 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 4: to have those thirty five to forty thousand dollars increases 314 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 4: every single time. Like, I can completely see how you 315 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 4: might go from like sixty to like ninety, but I 316 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 4: feel like once you get to like ninety, it's much 317 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 4: harder to get one hundred and one hundred and ten 318 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 4: and so on and so forth. Like these things don't 319 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 4: grow in the same ways as they might. 320 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 2: At the start of your career. So I totally see 321 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 2: where you're going. 322 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 4: I also think that you need to be a little 323 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 4: bit more I guess mindful when job hopping, Like are 324 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 4: you leaving an opportunity where you're like, look, I can 325 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 4: see the grass is greener on the other side and 326 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 4: it's more expensive, But are you moving on over to 327 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 4: another job where you're starting from scratch and you actually 328 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 4: could have had more career progression and experience if you've 329 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 4: stayed as a certain location longer. Like I mean, I 330 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 4: look at you, Jess, for example, because like you're an employee, 331 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 4: and I go, well, I don't know if you would 332 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 4: have been able to hop into the role that you have, 333 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 4: But you got the role that you have because of 334 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 4: the experience and how long you work with cheese on 335 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 4: the money and like how I knew your capability was there. 336 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 4: But if you'd applied for that having not had the experience, 337 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 4: I don't know if it would have worked. So I 338 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 4: think it just it really depends what are your thoughts. 339 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 4: I think that once every twelve months is totally fine. 340 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 4: Like I wouldn't consider that frequent job hopping. I know 341 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 4: that by older standards that probably you know, when people 342 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 4: like you stayed a job for twenty years, ah, that 343 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 4: would be really frequent. Once a year I don't think 344 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 4: is the worst. I completely agree that. 345 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 5: I think you'll hit a cap where it perhaps is 346 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 5: not as appealing because you're not having such a significant 347 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 5: change in income as a result of the job hop. 348 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 5: But I mean from like a recruitment perspective, I think 349 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 5: if you can explain that change, I say, oh, I 350 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 5: left job A because at job B I stepped into 351 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 5: a role where I had an opportunity to manage a team. 352 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 5: And I left job B because when I went to 353 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 5: job C, I then also got to be involved in, 354 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 5: you know, a different side of the business. I think, 355 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 5: if you can easily explain those things, once a year 356 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 5: is definitely not the worst. But I do think, as 357 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 5: you said, you'll stop seeing such significant changes in the 358 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 5: amount of money that you receive. And as you said, 359 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 5: there is value sometimes in staying in one company if 360 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 5: that company is willing to invest in you, or if 361 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 5: you find a really good company culture, because those companies 362 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 5: are not as common as you like them to be. 363 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 5: So I think that as long as you're weighing up 364 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 5: what you're giving up against what you're gaining, and if 365 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 5: it makes sense for you, I think that it's fine 366 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 5: if you are, I guess, in a role which is 367 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 5: more expendable. That's the other thing that it sounds like 368 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 5: you would want a factor in, and it sounds like 369 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 5: she is factoring that in. You know, if you are 370 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 5: a really niche if you're like I draw pictures of 371 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 5: animals in my job. That's my job and it's very specific, 372 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 5: and there's only so many companies that would want you 373 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 5: drawing those pictures of animals. Is it something that could 374 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 5: be impacted by the economy potentially if there are companies 375 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 5: winding back their budgets, maybe they've got less budget to 376 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 5: offer for a new role. Maybe there's a higher risk 377 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 5: of redundancy. You know, I don't know why is that example? 378 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 5: That was an example? 379 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 2: That was a great example. I just let you roll 380 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 2: with it. 381 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 5: I was like, this is fantastic. I was trying to 382 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 5: think of something niche and nothing was coming to mind. 383 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 6: Niche. 384 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 5: It is if not niche illustrator if you're an illustrated 385 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 5: but only of animals that I was trying to think 386 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 5: of something like Australian animals or is it like if 387 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 5: you specialize in Australia or something. I don't know. I'm 388 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 5: sure someone at home can think of a much better 389 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 5: niche vise. 390 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 2: I was thinking about all of that while you were 391 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 2: at to animal drawings, and I think as an employer, 392 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 2: I will absolutely look at your resume and be like, oh, 393 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 2: she was there for a year, she was there for 394 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 2: a year, and they were there for another year. 395 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 5: Right. 396 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 4: What I'm actually looking for is the progression in role, 397 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 4: So like, if you write a good resume, you're going 398 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 4: to be able to articulate to me the gained skills 399 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 4: and experiences that you had in those roles and the 400 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 4: increase in I guess responsibility in your next role. I'm 401 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 4: also looking for gaps, so whether there was like three 402 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 4: or four months between your last job and this job. 403 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 4: That tells me a lot more than you just job hopping. 404 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 4: So I think that there's a I guess a story 405 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 4: that a resume tells, and when you're putting your resume together, 406 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,879 Speaker 4: you've got to think of that story, Like what am 407 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 4: I putting in front of the employer, and what are 408 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 4: they going to think of that? Like, you know, if 409 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 4: I'm finishing in April, but I don't have another role 410 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 4: until August, Like, are they going to question that gap? 411 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 4: In my experience? I am, because I'm going to go, well, 412 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 4: why was that? Like you know the major red flag 413 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 4: is there? 414 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 5: Unemployable? 415 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, like did you get fired after twelve months because 416 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 4: it just wasn't working out? Or did you have to 417 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 4: take leave because of you know, whatever was going on? 418 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 4: And I think it's just they're reasonable questions to be asking. 419 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 4: But do I think it is safe to job hop 420 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,679 Speaker 4: in the current market? Depends on your job and it 421 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 4: also depends on what you're taking on. I don't think 422 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 4: it is a bad thing, but I also think you 423 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 4: need to be super aware that, yeah, there's going to 424 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 4: be a cap on what you can earn. 425 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 5: And what The other thing I would throw in there 426 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 5: is what business are you hopping too? Because, for example, 427 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 5: in an unstable economy, startup life can be higher. 428 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 2: Risk for roles. 429 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 5: You know, if it's a business that doesn't have a 430 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 5: really stable cash flow or really stable customer base, those 431 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 5: are the businesses that might struggle a bit more. Small 432 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 5: businesses as well might feel the impacts of a potential 433 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 5: recession or of economic disjointment more than a large corp would. 434 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 5: And so it also depends, I guess, on where you're 435 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 5: going to and what you're. 436 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 2: Doing as well. 437 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, and it also depends at what level you're performing. 438 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 4: So you mentioned like redundancies before, and I was having 439 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 4: this conversation the other day at my husband's B and 440 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 4: F dinner with somebody and they were talking about like, oh, well, 441 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 4: I have this grad job, and like, I'm really nervous 442 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 4: because I've only worked here for three or four months. 443 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 2: And at the end of the day they're talking. You know, 444 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 2: there's whispers in the business. 445 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 4: About redundancy, and their immediate assumption was lasting first out. Yeah, 446 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 4: and so like if you were last into the business, 447 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 4: like they're going to kick you out the first And 448 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 4: I was like, babe, like you work as a graduate, 449 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 4: your salary is down here, they're going to actually keep 450 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 4: you and probably get rid of the higher consultants, because 451 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 4: that's more in corporate life, that's usually how it happens. 452 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 4: They're not going to shoot themselves in the foot and 453 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 4: get rid of the really cheap labor. But I think 454 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 4: in some businesses that is true. In some businesses it's not. 455 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 4: And I can't just sweepingly say. 456 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 2: Oh, well, if you're lasting, you're first out. 457 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 4: Like it's something that lots of people might say, but 458 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,959 Speaker 4: I think you need to just understand the environment and 459 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 4: how that works. 460 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 2: So there's like lots to it. 461 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 4: Ultimately, No, I don't think it's a bad thing if 462 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 4: you are calculated and researched. 463 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 5: Yeah, completely agree. 464 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 2: All right, miss Jess GRICI, we have a DM. Are 465 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 2: you ready? 466 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 5: I'm excited to talk about this ram. 467 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 4: I know, I feel like today's episode was literally curated 468 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 4: for your interests. 469 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 2: All right, so a. 470 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 4: DM this week sounded identical to this. Yess, Hello, I 471 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 4: have a community call out that relents to renting with 472 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 4: a cat. It's kind of one of those am I 473 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 4: the asshole situations. I'm applying for my dream job and 474 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 4: it involves a short term relocation to Melbourne for training. 475 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 4: I'll be there for about six or eight months, after 476 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 4: which I would return back to Sydney. I have a 477 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 4: six year old indoor princess. We're talking about a cat 478 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 4: here because she's putting brackets. The cat emoji who is 479 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 4: perfectly house trained. And while I know landlords can't refuse 480 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 4: a pet application without a good reason, it is highly 481 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 4: likely they'll give preference to somebody without a pet. I'm 482 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,719 Speaker 4: considering not declaring her on applications and just keeping her 483 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,439 Speaker 4: hidden from the landlord just so I can secure a 484 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 4: place to live for the time frame. What would others recommend? Oh? 485 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,920 Speaker 5: This is so hard? Can I see both sides of 486 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 5: the story. 487 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 4: Let's start with our community questions then, and then we 488 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:47,479 Speaker 4: can overlay our opinion. Because we as in Jesse, RICI 489 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 4: and I have both rented with cats. 490 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 2: So question number one, or we asked. 491 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 4: The community was if this was you, would you keep 492 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 4: the cat a secret? Thirty nine percent of you said yep, 493 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 4: they won't find out anyway. 494 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 2: Like Ballsy, sixty one percent of you. 495 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 4: Said no, I'd be nervous if the consequences, which is 496 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 4: Jess and I. The next question we asked was have 497 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 4: you missed out on a rental before because of pets? 498 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 4: Forty one percent of you said yes and fifty nine 499 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 4: percent of you said no. And then we said, if yes, 500 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 4: would you consider hiding the pet next time? Fifty one 501 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 4: percent of you said yes, which I think is you 502 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 4: know you've been burned before. Then we said, if you 503 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 4: or someone you know is a landlord, are applications without 504 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 4: pets more favorable. Sixty one percent of you said yep, absolutely, 505 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 4: one hundred percent proferno pets. Seeing I don't like people, Jessica. 506 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 5: It's really hard, I think because as a current renter 507 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 5: with two cats, you know, I would hate to think 508 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 5: that that would impact an application for me because I 509 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 5: know that I'm a great tenant, Like we have never 510 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 5: ever missed a rent payment. We always leave the house 511 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 5: in fantastic condition, like our listener. My cat's are really 512 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 5: well trained. 513 00:21:59,119 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: You know. 514 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 5: I have lived with people where the cats have caused damage. 515 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,479 Speaker 5: But then part of my brain says, well, that's what 516 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 5: your bond is for. But I think it's tricky because 517 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 5: you know, pets are for companionship, and I would hate 518 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 5: to think that if someone was a really great tenant 519 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 5: or applicant that they would be denied as a result 520 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 5: of that. On the flip side of that, I can 521 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,199 Speaker 5: see as a landlord, you have a right to have 522 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 5: your property respected and treated in the way that you 523 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 5: want it to be treated. You know, if that is 524 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 5: a hard and fast rule for you if you said, 525 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 5: I own this property and I really don't want to 526 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 5: have pets in it. Maybe you have an allergy to cats, 527 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 5: and you're like, I don't want to if I want to. 528 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 4: Live back in in two years and have to replace 529 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:35,640 Speaker 4: the carpets because there's cats are in there. 530 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, So like I kind of also understand how you know, 531 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 5: as a landlord, you've invested your money and you do 532 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 5: have a right to manage it in the way that 533 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 5: you see fit. I feel like if it was me, 534 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 5: if anything, if I was gonna be a bit dodgy, 535 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 5: I would apply without listing the pet, and then as 536 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,479 Speaker 5: soon as I moved in submit a pet application. So 537 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 5: that because I don't I don't think you can live there. 538 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 5: I don't think you can live there without telling them. 539 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 5: I think that's hard. I think it's rude. I think, like, 540 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 5: what if you know, as well trained as your cat are, 541 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 5: my cats have been sick before. Like, you can't control 542 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,199 Speaker 5: every variable. So I feel like, if anything, like if 543 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 5: you really are stressing, if you're finding that you can't 544 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 5: get a rental, particularly Victoria where we do have those 545 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 5: laws that are in favor of the tenant regarding pets, 546 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 5: I would say apply and then like move in and 547 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 5: literally like that week, apply for a pet. 548 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't disagree with that. I think that, you know, 549 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 4: the rental market is incredibly challenging, so I don't want 550 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 4: to be like, don't do don't. 551 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 2: Yes, I think that respect is actually a two way street. 552 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 5: So if you're. 553 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 4: Saying, hey, I'm considering lying to my landlord, okay, no worries. 554 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 5: It makes me feel a bit icky. 555 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 4: No, no, but like, would you be okay if your 556 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 4: landlord lied to you about something? So why do you 557 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 4: think that you get to lie and they don't? So 558 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 4: I think that yeah, that's my answer is like I 559 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 4: wouldn't lie. 560 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:55,159 Speaker 5: Yeah. 561 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 2: I think it's also very. 562 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 4: Fair to be wary of pets, right because I have 563 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 4: seen nightmare dogs. I seen nightmare cats, Like I had 564 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 4: had past tense a friend who had a cat. 565 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,719 Speaker 2: That would rip the hell out of the carpet. 566 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 4: She'd just be like, Oh, he's just so funny, and 567 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 4: I'd be like, what the heck, Like my. 568 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,479 Speaker 2: Cats would never do that. 569 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,959 Speaker 4: And I know you're exactly the same, Like we are 570 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 4: psychos with our pets, Like we. 571 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 5: Picked a house that was all floorboards because we're like well, 572 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 5: then it's not an issue. 573 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 2: I'm completely on that page. 574 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 4: We like put so many more floorboards in the only 575 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 4: place in my house that has carpet is my bedroom. 576 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 2: Because I was like, okay, that's fine. 577 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 4: But then also like I've gone to the extent of 578 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 4: like I hate cat litter, hate it. I've had a 579 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 4: cat lit as system plumbed into my house. Yeah, I'm crazy, 580 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 4: but how does your landlord know that you're getting a 581 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 4: Victoria in a jess or somebody else who doesn't care 582 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 4: so much? So for me, when I was renting with pets, 583 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 4: I put in a little pet resume, so I rode up. 584 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 4: At the time, I only had Bailey, one cat, and 585 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 4: I wrote him up a resume. I added some pictures 586 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,199 Speaker 4: because I do have a Tonkinese cat, so like he 587 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 4: does look a little bit different and he's a little 588 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 4: bit of a special boy, Like he's a bit of 589 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 4: a princess. So I added his little PRINCESSI photos, and 590 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 4: then I just did a bio of like, hey, here's 591 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 4: Bailey's health stats. This is what he gets up to 592 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 4: during the day, just so you know, like we really 593 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 4: don't like litter tracking. What we do is we vacuum 594 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,959 Speaker 4: three or four times a week because of that, and 595 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 4: I think that that is what ultimately got us our 596 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 4: last rental, because they had such clarity on who was 597 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 4: moving in. Like I have always been an above and 598 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 4: beyond person when it comes to applying for things, like 599 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 4: if it was a job, like I would make sure 600 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,640 Speaker 4: that everything on my resume and cover letter was super tailored. 601 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 4: I know not everyone is like that, and knewmight go, well, 602 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 4: I shouldn't have to do that. Don't then, like, I'm 603 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 4: just trying to put myself ahead of the competition, if 604 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 4: I'm being honest, And so I always had a bio 605 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 4: on me, a bio on. 606 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 2: My husband at the time who I was moving in with. 607 00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 4: And a bio on the cat and am I was 608 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 4: told by our real estate agent, that's why you got it, 609 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 4: because they had immediate clarity on like this is Steve, 610 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,439 Speaker 4: this is Victoria, this is their cat Bailey, this is 611 00:25:58,440 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 4: what this looks like. 612 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they were really happy with that. 613 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 4: So I think that just the added level of transparency 614 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 4: really helped our situation. 615 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I can put it on stories. 616 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 4: We'll put our little cat resume up so that you 617 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 4: guys can copy it. But it was lame, so lame. 618 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 4: But I think that's what made them laugh because jess 619 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 4: as I said, I like to be prepared. 620 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 2: Every open for inspection. 621 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,719 Speaker 4: I went to I took my little folder of printed 622 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 4: out applications, my printed out resumes, photo copies of my 623 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 4: license and passports, so I could be like, hi, kin, 624 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 4: so here's my pre prepared applications. Put me above and 625 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 4: beyond everybody else. They actually put Bailey's resume on their 626 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 4: fridge at work. That's so coy, and it had his 627 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 4: little reference. So I had the last rental property manager 628 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 4: that he lived in a property with, and I also 629 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 4: put his bet. 630 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 5: I feel it was that's actually a great It's not 631 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 5: I feel like putting if you have rented with this 632 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 5: cat somewhere else. I reckon having having a note on 633 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,880 Speaker 5: that a previous landlord or somebody who can say, oh, yeah, 634 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 5: like the cat lived here. It was a total non issue. 635 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 5: I think would go a very long. 636 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 4: Way because there are cats that climb curtains, there are 637 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 4: cats that climb windows and doors, and there are dogs 638 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 4: that scratch the hell out of a back door to 639 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 4: the point where it needs to be replaced. So I 640 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,479 Speaker 4: think we need to address the fact that those are 641 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 4: the things that your landlord is concerned about, and being 642 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 4: able to say, oh, by the way, Jess, this is 643 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,159 Speaker 4: the pet that would live here specifically might alleviate some 644 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 4: of their concerns. So for me, I'm definitely in the 645 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 4: camp of complete transparency because it's worked for me historically. 646 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 4: But also that's why I needed to give you so 647 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 4: much context and be like, yeah, it's worked for me historically, Jess. 648 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 4: But also I have been one of those above and 649 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 4: beyond people who like kind of did the crazy application 650 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 4: because I did want the house. I remember when I 651 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 4: went to the open for inspection for our last rental 652 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 4: property before we bought, and there were like sixty people there. 653 00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 4: I left, there's no chance, yeah, exac. 654 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 5: And so I understand how it can be stressful for 655 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 5: our listener, but I think, yeah, like I wouldn't go 656 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 5: the full keep it a secret, like, I just don't 657 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 5: think it'll work. And I think if you get busted, 658 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 5: is that grounds potentially. 659 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 4: For you to be I think it definitely is ground 660 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 4: which is to be kicked out. But I also just 661 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 4: look at it and I go, you would expect your 662 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 4: landlord and your real estate agent do not lie to you, 663 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,399 Speaker 4: So why do you think it's okay to do it? 664 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 4: In vice versa, like there might be a leak or 665 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 4: something in the laundry and they're like, oh, they might 666 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 4: not want the house because of that, let's just not 667 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 4: tell them. That's not okay. So why is it okay 668 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 4: for you to do it? I'm also a very black 669 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 4: and white person, like in my head, there's a right 670 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 4: and a wrong, and it's got me into a lot 671 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 4: of trouble. 672 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 5: Historic So what did everybody else think? 673 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 2: Honestly, there were so many diverse responses. 674 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 4: Yes, so first things first, someone said, we have no 675 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 4: issues with animals renting our properties. It's the people renting 676 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 4: that destroy it. 677 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 5: Yeah. 678 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 4: Someone else said I'll take a cat over a toddler 679 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 4: any day. 680 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 5: Honestly, super relevant. Yes, don't have a opposable thumbs, No, 681 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 5: landa drawn on the wall. 682 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: No. 683 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 4: As someone who's about to have a baby and looking 684 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 4: around her house going I think it needs babyproofing, I'm like, 685 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 4: where do people keep crayons and stuff in the future, 686 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 4: because I'm you know, if I leave crayons out, like, 687 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 4: my cat's not going to draw on the wall. 688 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know who's going to draw on the wall. 689 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 2: Baby yep, bam. 690 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 4: Anyway, next they said, apply, then advise that you have 691 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 4: a cat after the rental has been accepted, because they 692 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 4: shouldn't be declining it anyway. Someone said controversial, but if 693 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 4: there is carpet, you can't get that smell out. 694 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 2: Sorry, ladies, I would disagree. 695 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 5: This is a weird thing. 696 00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean if your cat on the well carpet. Yeah, 697 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 2: But like, Jess, do you walk into my house and 698 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 2: smell my pets? I hope not. I hope it smells 699 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 2: like domestos. 700 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 5: I would argue that dogs, but I'm not a dog irness. 701 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 5: I don't know if that's just because I have cat, 702 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 5: I don't know. 703 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 4: But also, like, look at my dog. She's technically one 704 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 4: of those hyperalergenic dogs. She doesn't drop any fur. It 705 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 4: means that we have to brush her all the damn time. 706 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 4: But like that's very different to having a German shepherd 707 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 4: who does drop further might get caught in the carpets. 708 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 2: Right, That's so true. Again, different horses for different courses. 709 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 4: Someone said, I'd be super welcoming to renters with dogs cats, know, 710 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 4: due to allergies and other landlord experiences can't people be 711 00:29:59,040 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 4: allergic to dogs too? 712 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 2: Totally but interesting bias. Everyone gets an opinion. 713 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 4: Someone else said, I know they can't legally refuse pets 714 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 4: without a valid reason, but I've seen contracts once accepted 715 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 4: that then say no pets. Someone said again, want to reiterate, 716 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 4: I'd take pets over kids any day. 717 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 5: They're really hammering that home. 718 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 2: I see you. 719 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 4: Someone said, in New Zealand, people can get a pet 720 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 4: after moving into the rental and they don't have to 721 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 4: tell their landlord. That's an interesting rule. What a conundrum. 722 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 4: Someone said, try and see if you can get it first. 723 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 4: If no luck after a set period, change your narrative 724 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 4: to what lying about having a pet? 725 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 2: Oh? 726 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 5: I see, and. 727 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 2: Then I've got two more. 728 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 4: Someone said I wouldn't approve a dog as my IP 729 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 4: is a flat. I think IP means investment property, which 730 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 4: means there's not enough space. 731 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 2: But I'd definitely approve someone with a cat, which makes sense. 732 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,239 Speaker 5: I think there's also the narrative or the assumption. And 733 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 5: as someone who rents like I can admit that I 734 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 5: have felt this way sometimes that all landlords are just 735 00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 5: so particular and they only want a really particular type 736 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 5: of person. And then their property, and it can feel 737 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 5: really hard to if you don't fit that standard. Yeah, 738 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 5: but there are some out there, as we're seeing in 739 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 5: these comments, of people who don't mind, or who are 740 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 5: maybe really reasonable and really level headed, and if you 741 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 5: showed them the right you know, the pet resume and 742 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 5: the references and all of those kinds of things, then 743 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 5: maybe it would turn out totally fine. 744 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 745 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 4: And then this last person that I'm going to read 746 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 4: out says, I'm a landlord. It actually depends on the pet. 747 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 4: I'm happy with pets like cats and small dogs in 748 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 4: our small rental property. So again, I think that clarity 749 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 4: situation where you go, hey, actually, this is my pet, 750 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 4: this is what they act like, this is their behavior here, 751 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,440 Speaker 4: and maybe some references. I totally get that there are 752 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 4: people out there that gonna go Victoria, I shouldn't have 753 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 4: to do that, or you shouldn't, but you know what, 754 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 4: there are people out there who are doing it. And 755 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 4: I can almost guarantee that if I one day become 756 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 4: a landlord and I look at Jess's application that has 757 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 4: I have one cat, and then Jess's application that has 758 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 4: I have one cat, here's a whole heap of information 759 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 4: about them. I am going to go with the more 760 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 4: educated decision because it makes me feel more confident as 761 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 4: somebody who's lasing out that property also tells me a 762 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 4: fair bit about that person's I guess, commitment, personality. I'm like, Wow, 763 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,000 Speaker 4: they really have gone above and beyond so as much 764 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 4: as you shouldn't have to if there are other people 765 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 4: out there doing it, the probability of you getting picked 766 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,760 Speaker 4: when honestly there's a better option on the table, Like 767 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 4: I think, we do need to put in the effort, 768 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 4: especially if we want to have our pet sleep with. 769 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 5: Us, and that's what we all want.
