I believe nowadays agents have to check and do due diligence. Even backdated. But it's just declarations that's all.

Declarations not equal to due diligence.

As if criminals will self declare they are washing their money here....😆

I failed my maths badly. Wonder how a salaried person manage to own a $50m bungalow? Inherited, one and only property from life saving or pick from the fleas market cheaply once upon a time?

Don't ask too much later get pofma  Anyway last time civil servants, even teachers, can afford landed property, maybe not gcb but at least a proper "house". Prices were cheaper then relative to salary and civil service perks were better with the blue card for medical and pension.

I recall back in my day the older teachers stayed in non-hex addresses and drove cars though coe was crazy then (early 90s).

if bought years ago, it wasnt $50m 

however it all depends on salary.  If salary is $5m per year , no problem…

if salary is like only $500k per year, then not in a lifetime.

I think you are not understanding my words. but nevermind, let me explain.

 

during his time, Ministers dont get $5m generally. But $1-2mil is certainly not an issue.

during his time, GCBs were barely $10m to $20m so he can well afford one with a $1-2m salary

As GCB homes doubled twice in the last 20yrs, a $10m GCB in early 2000s can be $50m today quite easily.

That is the fate and destiny of Life.  

to clarify, i dont know when he bought it, just thinking logic , thats all
