  11. A $3.4b collapse exposes the mess of our housing industry
    By Alan Kohler

    The collapse of Bathla is a disaster for the national housing supply and affordability project: its now-stalled pipeline of 14,000 apartments represents about 18.5 per cent of new housing stock to be built in NSW this year.

  16. The 30-year policy collision behind Australia's housing crunch
    By Alan Kohler

    How two sets of policies, housing and migration, compounded on each other over 30 years and created the housing affordability crisis we have today.

  17. After 10 years renting a place then 💥 Eviction! the stress, facing impossible moving arrangements, the upheaval, the emotional burden... I'm not religious but for the first time ever find myself wishing for a miracle

  18. @rood Yes, they had policies—policies to boost the value of their multiple investment properties and to keep the property lobby and big business happy. Let’s not forget the media barons profiting from the world-record fees charged for home sale advertisements.

  19. Real estate agents are rarely considered the victim. But when it comes to the behemoths of property listings in Australia, estate agents have faced price gouging to the tune of a 5000% price rise over the last 15 years for a 'premium' listing on the market-dominant platform. Without paying for that 'premium' service, properties tend to disappear from search results.

    Since the behemoth in question is a subsidiary of (and substantially bankrolling) Australia's dominant media company (i.e. #Murdoch), with a market capitalisation greater than supermarket giant #Coles, here is yet another reason the political duopoly are reluctant to touch structural #TaxJustice issues such as #NegativeGearing or #CapitalGainsTax.

  20. Australian apartments are a financial trap. Policymakers, think tanks, the media, and the property lobby are pushing for Australians to live in high-rise apartments to accommodate an additional 13.5 million people in the country over the next 39 years.

  21. @starlinguk

    No they didn't look like #SozialWohnungen (social housing).

    Our city-quarter is more like #EigentumsWohnungen (flats for sale). Really, really expensive ones.

    Besides, we don't need the #Nazis in #Germany to do the most fucked up #HousingPolicy imaginable.

    A very grand Coalition of (almost) all parties in parliament is doing that already.

  22. Formerly, when housing stock was in the control of the local authority, you could make FoI requests for important documents regarding your home. However, that right didn't follow when our homes were transferred to RSLs. Please consider signing and sharing this petition to restore that right. petition.parliament.uk/petitio
