@ki_sekiya You’ve hit the nail on the head. It’s the fundamental issue facing a whole generation. How can you plan for a future family when a huge chunk of your income is swallowed by rent or a massive mortgage? We have the space, but the system isn't working for everyday people.

Governments are finally pushing back — another Aussie city is cracking down on Airbnb and short-term rentals, forcing investors to rethink the “easy money” model.
Property should be for homes, not profit-machines. These reforms show that some leaders are prioritising the long-term housing needs of people, not just the wealthy few who view homes as cash cows.#housingjustice #rentersrights #airbnbcrackdown #policychange #rentalcrisisaustralia #rentalcrisis #housingcrisis

Victoria is once again leading the way in putting people ahead of the wealthy few. From tomorrow renters in Victoria will benefit from stronger protections: a ban on no-fault evictions, a ban on rental bidding (so tenants don’t have to compete like auction bidders), longer notice periods for rent increases and property changes, and minimum standards for rental homes.
These reforms remind us that government can serve the many — not just the privileged minority who own property. I woild be proud to live in a state taking that message seriously. You won't be reading about this in the Murdoch controlled msm.#housingjustice #renterprotections #victoria #rentalcrisis #rentalcrisisaustralia

The media will tell you Sydney’s auction “clearance rate” is a sizzling 69.8%. But have a look at the fine print — 1483 auctions listed, only 880 reported. That’s barely 60% coverage. We’re fast reaching the point where half the results are missing, yet the headlines still shout “hot market!” Nothing like selective reporting to keep the property bubble afloat.

#SouthAustralia #SAparli has tried to grasp the short stay accommodation issue. Their report appears to sideline the #rentalcrisis in favour of the economic benefits and #tourism

In jindabyne, about a quarter of homes are now short term rentals. Locals are being priced out as house prices climb past $1.1m and rents have jumped nearly 85 percent in just five years. Towns built for tourism are squeezing out their own communities

The media is at it again. Headlines scream that landlords exiting the market will cause a rental crisis. But think for a second: if an investor sells a house, it doesn't vanish. It's sold to someone who will likely live in it. That means one less renter competing for a home.
This isn't a crisis; it's a market correction towards more owner-occupiers. But that doesn't get clicks.#MediaBias #Scaremongering #HousingCrisis #Economics #Landlord #Rentalcrisis #AustralianHousing #LogicFail #Msm

Walking through the Chapel Market in Islington, I saw the door to what presumably had been a residence that had since been aggressively subdivided, and next to it, a wall of #Airbnb key lockers. They were laid out haphazardly, almost organically, looking not so much like a planned system but more like the eggs of some predatory insect.

So Melbourne’s now the ninth most unaffordable city in the world to buy a home. But let’s be real—Sydney’s been unaffordable for years, Brisbane’s catching up fast, Perth’s gone mad, Adelaide’s no bargain, and even Hobart’s cooked.
Darwin and Canberra? Same story.
It's a nationwide housing disaster, and the only people winning are developers and investors. The rest of us are locked out.#housingcrisis #australia #auspol #rentalcrisis #BetterNotBigger

Most letter writers to our local newspaper, #TimesColonist are quite conservative & cruel in how they think about marginalized peoples. You rarely see compassion in TC letters published, that Mr. Chris Holiday has shown. I don't know the person but grateful locals like them exist.
"Give more respect to those unhoused
I have been appalled at the increasing level of stigmatization and hatred directed toward the unhoused population.I live on Pandora Avenue and frequently walk by individuals suffering most severely from our province’s housing crisis. I’ve witnessed individuals in crisis and using threatening language towards passersby but I have also witnessed verbal harassment of unhoused individuals coming from the balconies of luxury apartments.
Public safety is a two-way street, everyone deserves the right to safety and dignity. A 2023 study by the Ministry of Housing reports that 67% of unhoused individuals have lived in their community for more than five years and 23% for their entire lives.
These are our neighbours, and they deserve respect just as much as us who are housed.

Decades of unfair policies, particularly in taxation, #housing, and #immigration, have shifted the economic balance in favour of the older generation at the expense of the young. The data also shows that the #RBA "blunt" tool of interest rates disproportionately affects Australians with mortgages, while having little impact on older, wealthier homeowners who continue to spend freely. #EconomicInequality #HousingCrisis #TaxationPolicy #GenerationalDivide #AustraliaEconomy #RentalCrisis #Auspol

Sydney is facing a severe housing shortage, and owning a mansion seems like a distant dream for many. Meanwhile, there are sprawling, multi-million dollar homes across the city that have been left vacant and neglected for years. New South Wales tops the list for empty homes, with 22,000 vacant properties in Sydney alone. #HousingCrisis #SydneyRealEstate #VacantHomes #RentalCrisis #LandBanking #vacantpropertytax

Raymond pays just $150 a week for his tiny, dark, two-room unit in Paddington, where he's lived for 45 years. Now, developers want him out.

A man's home may be his castle, but even castles aren't immune to neglect. If left to rot, they become vulnerable. While people can leave private #property vacant, it's always regulated by law for the community's benefit. With a #housing shortage, using unused #homes is more crucial than ever. #housingcrisis #rentalcrisis #landBanking #auspol #vacantpropertytax

The charity Strike It Out has been instructed by Launceston City Council in #tasmania #australia to remove its sleeping pods and shower trailers for #homeless individuals from the streets due to a lack of permits. The charity has been trying to secure these permits since late 2022 but has faced ongoing bureaucratic hurdles. The council cited community complaints about antisocial behavior and infrastructure damage as reasons for the removal, while the charity argues these measures are urgently needed, especially during cold weather.
