  1. This is the housing debate we should be having.
    For decades, Australian housing was allowed to become a wealth accumulation machine rather than simply somewhere to live. Older generations benefited enormously, while younger Australians face prices completely disconnected from wages.
    If house prices need to fall to restore some level of affordability, perhaps that isn’t a crisis. Perhaps it is part of the solution.
    A house should be a home first, an investment second.
