ELECTION SPECIAL: Housing crisis at the forefront of the Election Debate | 9 News Australia

Thanks for the sympathy Peter, I hope your $11m home is nice and cosy.

Both Albonese and Dutton are ineligible "leaders" as well as Green socialists because they are all ultra rich PROPERTY INVESTORS. Like insider trading and personal vested financial interests it should be illegal for them to even represent parties that intervene in what should be a free market. Country is screwed. Your property obsession has swallowed up entire economy now.

Albo the Marxist
$460 million on divisive Voice, country has not recovered.
Import 2 million mostly non English speaking migrants.
Allows foreign ownership of Australian homes = homeless Australians
Misinformation Bill – took Twitter to Court to remove footage of Bishop Mari Mari being stabbed.
Hate and islamophobic Bill – imports 3,000 people from Gaza and fills out cities with more hate for Australia.

It doesn't matter who wins the housing crisis will continue to get worse while the nation struggles and the politicians pay check increases along with there benefits and promised lies, Do not forget that all the politicians are friends that work at the same facility that meet up for expensive dinners and laugh together.

Housing prices and rents need to come down by 70% to be affordable.

The only was to get a house is to go on YT and complain non stop. You will earn enough for a mansion.

Why do we must own a home? My dream does not attach to that piece of home.

Maybe if you made parents that have 52 kids pay for their kids houses in the future, there wouldn't be a housing crisis, cause unless EVERYONE of your kids buys/builds a house for themselves then this is what happens, along with bringing in extra stress on housing with IMMIGRANTS, ask the 25 million homeless on the streets if America where the government system will leave them eventually

Maybe we all need to put trumpet of patriots first on the voting card to get the housing market resorted back to the people and not allowed to be used as a share market Avenue,back to the Australian dream at fair prices,not at the ridiculous over priced market it's at, and some will have to take a fall,they were quite happy to take the gain's

The can just getting kicked down the road to the next generation. You cant tell people that the best you can work for is a rental and expect society to run as normal. You all have no idea what is coming!

Unbridled immigration must affect the availability of rental properties, therefore price increases with supply and demand

No one is mocking the “ghost apartments” built in china now?

Dutton has 26 investment properties.. I cant get a rental for me and my kids.. 41yo fulltime solo father… social housing laughed me and my sons out the door sayin 10yr wait before Covid lockdown and not to bother applying and humiliated us into not doing so.. and no hope of finding or affording one, it doesn't look likely in my lifetime we will be able to… I'm at a point where this blonde haired blue eyed aussie dad welcomes a foreign invasion … I have lost any faith in the Australian Government

Any policy that throw more money into the market will make houses less affordable.

Massive increase of housing supply is needed to bring house prices down.

Remove GST from Building products.

Fraser Rise is more than 25km from CBD. It is 34km. One hrs to cbd in medium traffic

First homebuyer grants only push up the price. Negative gearing and capital gains tax needs to be amended, but neither of the two big parties want to bring down prices.

Why is Australia obsessed with this subject

Australia has created third world slums, but the major parties pork barrelling is all about able bodied self entitled middle class, most of whom are public servants because we have no industry left.

There has been nothing for pensioners either aged or disabled, no mention of implementing the issues raised in royal commissions

Tax breaks only help people who currently pay tax, not people who spent a lifetime paying tax.

People who have multiple houses, like Dutton's 26, Have a conflict of interest. So they will never be interested in reducing the house value. We need real people with real answers who have a high moral compass to fix this problem. Housing should be a right not an asset. Good example, your car does not gain value once you drive it of the lot, only when it becomes rare does it become valuable. Sick! and not in a good way.

It's called work harder, not 38 hours a week, more like 70 or more, and you get somewhere weak generation

No point in buying anything the world is going down

The housing crisis is such a crucial issue right now. It’s good to see it being addressed in the election debate. Hope it leads to real solutions for those struggling to find affordable housing.

don't pour surplus fund into housing market. stop investment from overseas. Impose more tax on investment property. stop negative gearing. increase interest rate. Australia banks should not allow home loans to low income earner.

66% of population in Aus own a home; so it's a minority issue and won't be resolved

Who else is feed up to the back teeth with the obscene amount of “Trumpets or Patriots” useless propaganda?… What a waste of time and resources!… For nothing!…. How many millions and millions of dollars wasted for a few hundreds votes… Churchill famously said, in the summer of 1940: “Never in the field of human conflict, was so much owed by so many to so few”… We could say now: “Never, in the field of politics, was so much money wasted by so many id!ots to get so few votes”… However, I must recognise their optimism and persistance!

Less Immigration ; less greedy landlords ; less air b'n'b ; more housing more cheaply & quickly – who ya gonna vote for ? ……Peter Dutton's the man .

Sounds like a 2 tier society. The middle man become the poor and slave's to the elites….and the poor die off. Maslow's laws for mental wellness
A secure home
A secure job
Family connection
Relationship
Health care
Education

Labor Greens Teals have stuffed up Australia and VERY UNSUCCESSFULY tried to blame others. Even with Socialist cash for comments media ord. ABC saying "the problem is supply" it doesn't work everyone knows Albo et al. are to blame with OVER IMMIGRATION

Concrete jungles lol locked up in a boring bare housing estate, I feel lucky, OMG next level deception. Trapped.

blaming the immigration is a sneaky attack on the minority who doesn't have the power to vote. Easy. Convenient.

it's a SMALL part of the reasons, NOT the MAJOR one.

Blaming foreign investors another easy convenient blaming game. only 5% of AUstralian Property investments are foreign. Think about that.

How about the artificial NON-losing game of Australian Property Investment? with negative gearing, 50% DC on CGT, average 150+days for paperworks on Property development approvals(US takes 7 days!!! 7 !!!! unwilling to build or incompetent).

With these rules, AUS property investment is NOT an investment, ALL aussies think/know the property prices will go UP. and UP only.

That's not an investment guys, that's a term deposit with insane interest rates(capital gains+rent) & high joining fee(stamp duty+other costs).

Investment are to be rewarded for the RISKS that people are taking.

There is close to ZERO risk in AUS property market for the wealthy to park their wealth.

Im looking for an INDEPENDENT candidate this election, NO liberal, NO labour, and unrealistic GREEN will save our ass.

Best tv channel on Australia sir please start your hindi channel on india in pay mode

Stop making a human need an investment. Imagine we did the same with food and water it would be shamed

As Malaysian student i wonder 🤔 do workers like accountant, nurse, teacher, or others afford to buy a house?

Hahaha.. people just like to complain a lot by nature, but yet vote for their landlords anyway 😀

I read something about 96% of lawmakers has one or more houses. Why do you think the price should or would go down?

Too expensive

Should change the law immediately

Everyone citizen should own a house and easy to buy and then every citizen should be the same shoulder of fair

😢😢😢😢😢😢what about a right wing comedy party
