Whatever announcables may come from the Government, the truth is housing crisis in Australia is far from over.
As I discussed with Leith van Onselen on Tuesday, high migration is the root cause of the problem – a problem created by bad policy and ultra-high migration. Yet some are arguing we should import more construction workers to build more homes. Sounds like shoot ready aim, to me.
Sure it is true that as Australia’s housing affordability crisis worsens, governments are spending more on housing. But as a recent The Conversation article says, without coordinated action to increase supply, government grants will have little practical effect on house affordability anytime soon.
Victoria’s Andrews government has announced a suite of reforms (such as boosting social housing and making planning processes faster) in an effort to get 800,000 extra homes in Victoria over the next decade.
Federally, the Albanese government’s A$10 billion Housing Australia Future Fund, or HAFF, has passed the Senate with the help of the Greens, who supported the bill in exchange for another A$1 billion for social housing.
And this year’s federal budget has expanded eligibility for the Home Guarantee Scheme so more people can buy a home with a smaller deposit.
But is Australia ready for a house construction boom?
Supply chain constraints say no. Ballooning construction costs and labour shortages have already claimed well-known building firms across the country. Delivering thousands of extra new homes in the coming years will not be easy.

You’ve probably been reading about the Evergrande collapse and may have some important questions about what China’s property market crisis means for you and your nest egg.
Let me be honest with you – all the indications are pointing to dark days ahead for the global property market. In addition to China’s economic woes, interest rates are not showing any signs of easing, the cost of living is still high, and unemployment is set to spike too.
And property values are still 40% over long-term trends, so there’s risk of a fall – and it could be fast! But not all property is equal, which is why you need to be proactive in planning the road ahead, and get granular to safeguard and grow your portfolio through tough times.
I’m joining Greg Owen from Goko Group to talk through these issues in an exclusive live Zoom call, and I’d love to see you there. There are two sessions to choose from:
Session 1: Wednesday, September 20th @ 7pm (Sydney) / Wednesday, September 13th @ 10am (London)
Session 2: Thursday, September 21st @ 11am (Sydney) / Wednesday, September 20th @ 9pm (New York)
I can’t understate the importance of taking swift and targeted action to protect your nest egg and put yourself in a position to keep growing your wealth.
Please don’t miss this opportunity. Simply click here to register:

I hope to see you there.
Another tour of the recent news, as some prices are moving higher, driven by high demand and poor supply. But according to our property insider, Edwin Almeida, not all areas are behaving the same, and there are clear reasons for this. We also look at how pets are impacting the supply of rental property, and what to remember when at an auction.
