The private housing market can’t deliver enough properties,anytime SOON such that affordability will trickle down to low income earners. What we need now: 1.End No Grounds Evictions (fixed & periodic),replace with Reasonable Grounds 2.Huge increase in public & community housing
New #AHURIresearch has revealed today that more households with higher incomes are renting and the shortage of private rental homes that are affordable for very low income households has worsened. bit.ly/3SKvUkz #rentalcrisis @Swinburne @UTAS_
The National Rental Affordability Index (RAI) for 2024 is out today. It’s the tenth edition of the RAI, and unfortunately it offers no good news for Queensland renters. @couriermail @QldGov @NationalShelter @SGSEcoandPlan
Rental affordability has plunged to record lows across Aus, with low-income renters bearing the brunt of the crisis according to @NationalShelter's 10th Rental Affordability Index. The govt must #BuildSocialHousing + end unfair investor tax breaks! smh.com.au/property/news/…
The Rental Affordability Index shows that rental prices nationwide are outpacing income increases. The rental crisis needs urgent attention. Explore the report, interactive map and dashboard: sgsep.com.au/publications/i…
Researchers studied 115 two-bedroom apartments for sale in Melbourne Only 18 were found to be appropriately designed for storing and preparing meals. Some residents were forced to store food in bedrooms. We need better apartments. Not worse ones! archive.is/k5uyg#selectio…
Last night's @abcnews finance segment, in case you missed it. abc.net.au/news/2024-11-2…
Great insights from @ABSStats about the conditions for building new homes in Australia since 2020. "Dwelling approvals & commencements grew rapidly... Global supply and trade shortages meant that the industry was unable to keep up with the construction of these new dwellings"
The average cost to build a new house in Australia grew 29% in 5 years, from $345,000 (2019-2020) to $444,000 (2023-2024).
In 2022-23, 250,000 got help from from Homelessness Services, but many being turned away, incl. families & young people. Report: 1 in every five days, services could not assist family with children because they were so stretched. @ACOSS #Auspol
More than 1 in 4 sales nationally over the past year were cash sales. This speaks to why prices have continued to rise despite the surge in interest rates. afr.com/property/resid…
NSW Parliament passed the Residential Tenancies Amendment Bill 2024 (the Bill) at the end of October 2024 – a momentous occasion for NSW renters. To find out what is, and isn't yet in effect, we have an incredible resource we are updating often: tinyurl.com/59by6kmk

Since the ABS Wages Index began in Q3 1997, wages have grown by a total of 129.3%. Housing prices had grown by that much by September 2006. The benchmark discount variable owner occupier mortgage rate is pretty much the same today as it was in 2006.
The idea that renting should be just as good as homeowning is key to our work at Better Renting, so we're excited about this report from @AHURI_research More Aussies are renting for longer; they shouldn't have to wait until they can buy to feel like real life has begun.
New #AHURIresearch found at least five sub-sectors within the private rental sector. As up to 60% of Australian renters expect to be lifetime renters, the research considers how government policies may need to change to support this major cultural shift. ow.ly/avuW50U6zgh
There are two halves to the housing affordability question and one of them is mostly ignored - income. The private market isn’t exactly designed to meet the needs of low-income people
This is an extraordinary picture. It shows the measure of household income per capita used to produce the Henderson Poverty Line. The post-COVID decline has us back at an average income level not seen since 2009.
Australians like to think we're an equal society, but as @MattGrudnoff shows - the poorer your postcode and the further you live from the city, the worse your health and life expectancy #OffTheCharts australiainstitute.org.au/post/research-…
A new report released today by the AIHW explores how transitional aged care supports older people leaving hospital. Learn more: brnw.ch/21wOCeM #Agedcare #Agedcareaustralia
‘…majority of renters want to be home owners…but less than half of them think they’ll ever be able to buy….’ And they’ll be right, as renting increases across the life course, making poverty in senior years likely. Crisis for all ages. #auspol smh.com.au/property/news/…
At a block of flats in Sydney 74.2% of residents voted that they should be able to dry clothes on their balconies But because this fell below the 75% threshold, the motion failed, and it is still banned Strata laws in NSW are *insane* archive.is/CTYuf
Elderly residents at 2 boarding houses in Paddington being evicted by developers. Residents & advocates call NSW housing to focus on finding new homes for older residents locally. Sydney Council is taking the developer to court. @_EverybodysHome @ACOSS @antipovertycent #Auspol
