We need more institutional landlords -- a.k.a. build to rent. As is common in Europe and North America. It is by far the best solution to rental insecurity. It also happens to lower rents.

"harm the average landlord" “Higher concentration raises rents 3.8%, but higher rental supply lowers rents by 6.1%” Rejoice, angry aussies renters, should support more large institutional landlords

Every state and territory government in the country has already shifted to four-year terms, and Australia is one of only eight out of the 186 countries with active legislatures that have continued to hold on to terms of three years or less. smh.com.au/politics/feder…

The Council announced a height bonus for hotels, tourism warrants more action than care for oldies IRT cant add to their sites, barely any additional beds going in, even replacing Aged Care places with seniors living They have millions, instead are building 100km away (Nowra)

Sydney’s CBD is significantly less affordable than Melbourne’s and height limits championed by Clover Moore are a big part of that difference.

Just give them a bigger housing target 500,000 people commute in, they only have to build 3,780 per year They are creating more jobs than that, making it worse

Unanderra protest against Asx $BIS selling armoured steel to Israel This is the 4th time they don't have the furnace on Surely they're losing more money than the small contract is worth. Ceo prefers to be stubborn ass moron over investors. And he's currently off in court

In the 1960s, a development application for a 3-storey townhouse was 12 pages. Today, it’s a novel, and not a short one. Let’s build more homes, spark more breakthroughs and plug in more clean energy. My Chifley Research speech: ministers.treasury.gov.au/ministers/andr… 🏘️📚⚡#auspol

Reduce building heights proposed from 24m to 16m Says Wollongongs NF5 "community defenders, not NIMBYs" The claimed benefit is to "make a statement of arrival" Consider that a component of your rent increase, due to less housing.

Worse still, this nimby residents group were privy to a pre-consultation from council So the actual town master plan for the public will be reduced from the getgo.

Seddon (Vic) cant pull its numbers with smaller lots or a handful of townhouses Poorly written article comparing this fight to their win against a highway, conspiracies about developer profits instead of renters that benefit, fallacies about full schools in the west Pure cope
