The housing affordability crisis in Australia is putting immense pressure not only on home buyers and owner-occupiers but now on renters as well...
Is the solution to Australia's property woes really just to build build build?
In this episode, Chris Leishman, professor of Property and Housing Economics, joins us to talk about the current housing and rent affordability crisis… How should our policymakers address this worsening issue in the housing market?
We also discuss the state of declining economic productivity, possible policies and plans for social and public housing, and what millennials think of owning housing assets.
