Our readingAustralia's housing shortage comes from bringing in more people each year than it builds homes for.
Their wordsThere is an issue with the lack of affordable housing in Australia. This is principally because we are bringing in over 300,000 people each year while building fewer than 200,000 homes. High house prices, and in some areas, a lack of housing at all, are because of a shortage in the supply of housing.
