  1. @Stew haha!

    Though I do wonder the quality of the work that went into the house. Since they only had a week or so do to things like the bathroom. I wasn’t a big fan of any of the kitchens and there isn’t any secure parking. I wonder if the parking out the front of the house is for the residences or anyone can park there and go shopping on Bridge Road.

  2. How can people afford to pay that sort of money for a house?? So much for people struggling!! Maybe people in Australia just can’t afford to pay 2 million dollars for a house and that is why we are supposed to be struggling. It’s no wonder the Reserve bank wants to put up interest rates. Personally I want interest rates to go up to at least 10% and then my savings would make some decent money. You can have the stupid block houses!!

  3. Who would buy these houses? I wouldn’t buy Josh and Jennas house at all. They are my least favourite couple and well their styling sucks. Sorry but it does.

  4. @ Stew and Jezza, don’t forget you are assuming you get fixed odds at the time of application and even if you did, I think you’d find that the odds they’d give you would be a lot less due to the high sum you’d be placing. After all they are trying to spread the risk, that is how they make a living.

  5. Lets not forget folks that these properties are not going to show a profit, so Stew’s theory should work, but put 200k on the bet so you can not only pick up a free house, but also buy a decent car and have a nice holiday as well….

  6. So… if I buy Poll and Waz’s house (or Rod and Tania) for 1.5 m,
    and put a $125,000 bet that it goes for 1.5m+ (at 13 to 1)… then I break even and get a free house.

  7. I’m sure bets on the ratings figures will be coming in soon. I reckon there’s potential for the show to hit above 3 million next Sunday for The Winner Announced. Seven and Ten are weak at the moment on Sundays.
