Australia's housing crisis isn't a game of Monopoly gone wrong.
It's a brutal reality facing young families, essential workers, and anyone with aspirations of owning a home.
Soaring mortgages, a housing stock stuck in the slow lane, and an immigration wave crashing on our shores have created a perfect storm - one squeezing affordability dry.
The situation is stark: mortgage payments have transformed from financial hurdles into boa constrictors, while rents climb ever higher, fueled by a scarcity that keeps supply perpetually gasping for air.
The traditional rental market is suffocating, leaving essential workers and young professionals drowning in a sea of unaffordable options.
Imagine you have to always be thinking about next week's mortgage repayment and how to balance your spending constantly with everything else in your life. It's an overwhelming picture that none of us can last for a long time without a lasting solution.
But in the shadows of this crisis, much needed potential solutions are found: affordable granny flats and rooming houses. These underutilised spaces within existing properties offer a lifeline, not just for desperate tenants, but for homeowners struggling under the weight of their mortgages.
Here's how it works:
Tenants: Access to safe, secure, and relatively affordable accommodation. A breath of fresh air for those suffocating in the rental market.
Homeowners: An income stream to offset those monstrous mortgage payments and rising living costs. A smart investment, adding value to your property.
Society: A pressure valve for the housing crisis. Granny flats and rooming houses could ease the burden on traditional rentals, potentially lowering individual rents for tenants and at the same time maximise rental yield for investors.
This isn't a fairytale ending, though.
