@resjudicata They probably were lying, but having recently sold, yes, unconditional contracts are common. Unrefundable deposits even get offered. It's foolish, but it happens.

@lejoelle Definitely varies by region then. Units to me are just anything strata titled (so all apartments are units but not all units are apartments).

@catcarp I'm in Brisbane too, but sounds like they're different things in Vic.

@veron So you think EV market share won't change during the life of these new buildings built to these mandates? To be clear, I said capable of charging. That means having sufficient power and wiring, not spending the final $$ for the charger itself (which shouldn't be mandated as that can...

@xxmnbvcxx It might be a regional thing, but aren't units and apartments the same thing?

@krimmie This just gets funnier.

@veron Not sure what you mean, but there's no way this country can charge EVs at night when we're at 100% electrification. It's irrelevant how many people park at work, the cars that are at work still need to be charged, and not just 10% of them. So the calculation is how many cars sit at...

@krimmie I doubt $800 (about equal to 6 tank refills) for a charger is going to be the deciding factor if you think it's smart to spend $100K on a car. But make your own predictions about future costs.

@veron Wow, 10%... They should at least have mandated 50% spaces with the capability to charge. It doesn't have to be fast charging for workplaces.

@krimmie You have a fuel bowser at home? That must be convenient!
