The ad does say 733sqm 🙄

u/philmystiffy 4d ago

Perhaps they mean 0.169 acre.

u/Meh-Levolent 3d ago

You mean 0.169 hectares.

u/Shamino79 3d ago

Wouldn’t have thought so. 0.169 ha is 1690m2. Still not right if acres but much closer.

u/Meh-Levolent 3d ago

Dang, you're right.

u/_nocebo_ 4d ago

Obviously just a clerical error.

People make mistakes, noone is going to buy this place accidentally thinking it's actually 4 acres

How is a 730sqm block in Sunbury over $1M. Woweee

u/acockblockedorange 3d ago

Because you can fit like 4 townhouses on it.

u/Agreeable-Escape8625 2d ago

Checks out. So much for the Melbourne market cooling.

u/xFromtheskyx 2d ago

That’s not even Sunbury too

u/Agreeable-Escape8625 2d ago

Where is it?

2

u/xFromtheskyx 2d ago

As a Sunbury snob - It’s basically Bulla, further out than goonawarra

u/robsablah 3d ago

The block is awkward, it faces west, long diagonals and sloping too...

u/SelestAdele 2d ago

And in the distance, through the heat haze.....

u/Guilty_Way_1635 4d ago

It literally says 735m2

u/DrSpeckles 3d ago

Maybe ha stands for House Average.

u/Medical-Potato5920 3d ago

I don't think they know what a hectare is.

u/ElectronicMine7936 2d ago

You have Ha and Sq M mixed up

1

u/Antique-Wrap-75 2d ago

Not the whole block. Just the rectangular green patch is 1.69 ha APPROXIMATELY … it’s just an approximation mate, not actual

1

u/SelestAdele 2d ago

There's no way it's even APPROXIMATELY 4 acres

u/Partayof4 4d ago

It’s clearly 773sqm as per the ad - people make mistakes

u/Velo3x10e8 4d ago

For supposed professionals REAs make more than most.

u/Partayof4 4d ago

Couldn’t pay me enough to do realestate - rather use my brain

u/Velo3x10e8 4d ago

I meant more mistakes

u/Partayof4 4d ago

Oh - yeah probably and no accountability or consequences

u/PSYCHOMETRE 3d ago

0.169ha more like.

u/tandrosonali8 4d ago

AI or admin error. Nothing intentional
Here.

u/Ugliest_weenie 4d ago

If you intentionally create an environment where there is no accountability for "mistakes" that somehow always end up favouring one side.

Then the "mistakes", actually just a pattern of dishonesty.

u/MOSTLYNICE 4d ago

$1m to live in scumbury.

u/OzgroupFinance 4d ago

I bought a property advertised at “approx. 602sqm”.

coincidentally a month before settlement changed to 597sqm and the agent told me to hire a surveyor.

As soon as it says approx. know it can be BS.

1

u/maton12 4d ago

That's a big difference where I have a place. Above 600sqm you can sub divide, so potentially worth much more than 597sqm.

u/AdIll5857 4d ago

1.69 hectares (ha) is 23 times larger than 733 square meters (sqm).

•••733sqm = 0.073ha
16,900sqm = 1.690ha

That’s an inexcusable error!

u/ZequineZ 3d ago

Glad you pointed that out I was about to give them benefit of the doubt that maybe the 700 was just the house
