Just got a bullshit email from the REA wanting to schedule an inspection just TWO months after I've moved in (because three months on the dot apparently would clash with her leave schedule, poor dear). Had to stand my ground and say the law states that it's got to be minimum 3 months.

My entire being is ready to not deal with this rubbish any more. The scales have definitely tipped towards working on ownership instead, and all the accompanying shit that goes with that

Yeah that was a feint to see how well you knew your rights. They need to start penalty pointing that shit like a drivers license

We've had to hand over less personal information for a mortgage than REA want for a rental these days, and it's not stored in some bullshit third party app with utterly flimflam security measures. Feels worth it just for that!
