Sydney housing market is royally fucked

[timmy]

Fed statistics show foreign investment accounts for over 1/4 of sales of living space nationwide. Lebensraum isnt supposed to be a business model. 3 bedroom house far away from the city will sometimes go for 1 million. Tell me that isnt a bubble being perpetuated by the policy makers and the greedy banks making half their profits on interest repayments hail satan

40% of australia is wilderness if you would develop your fucking country you would have plenty of affordable housing

Easier said than done. The state governments all have their offices in capital cities instead of moving outward thanks to the internet making more remotr offices viable.
For example sydney gov could relocate to parramatta, the largest business district outside of sydney city.... this would promote growth away from the capital. So essentially everyone is going to work at a congested city centre and houses over 2 hours drive are not desirable or practical for office workers...

Also 70 percent of the land here is dry or very dry, expensive to make livable.

At the end of the day its purely the government's fault for the shortcomings in this cuntry

the private sector has been mollycoddled for too long, parliament needs to cut the apron strings and let them do what needs to be done. the governm,ent shouldn't be necessary for development they're not over here if there's land available someone will buy it and develop it

when are the commonwealth countries going to realize that almost everything is better off left to the private sector

start by kicking the government out of your life, eliminate the socialized medicine and the welfare programs that give them an iron grip on you

Im still waiting for foreign property investment is outlawed and interest rate rises, currently the only option is to pack up and move to brisbane where housing is a third the price while wages are the same

if someone is running for office promising "I will start a program to provide X" say fuck no and vote for the guy who will let the more competent private sector handle whatever service

Oh the current federal government is already making huge cuts to welfare. I don't see medicare funding going anywhere since its a guaranteed election loss

that's the wrong direction, investment is good and would be growing your economy if the nanny state would let it

Most promises arent fundable

foreign investment is actually better than domestic investment because it's bringing new money into the country

[timmy]

But some of the incoming capital is possibly laundering money

[maks]

who cares it's still capital

you're cutting welfare you ahve investments coming in it sounds like gowing pains you're already moving in the right direction give it some time

That would be nice if the profits would stay here. Preexisting dwellings dont add much to the economy.
