This is the first episode of 7am’s new five-part special series on the housing crisis.

What happened to housing in Australia over the past few decades wasn’t by chance. It’s the result of decades of deliberate decisions that have turned us into a nation of landlords and property speculators.

This episode uncovers who broke the housing market, and introduces one of the few people who saw what was coming and tried to warn us.
