We need to change the immigrant laws with Philippines and other countries. Currently they are committing an immigration war, exporting their young and importing the old (Philippines retirement visa) this must reverse. Australia should follow HK and have a domestic helper scheme where they are never allowed to become residents, but make the age from 46 onwards.
Don't worry Sydney, lots of young Palestinians will soon be on their way. No farmers=no food No politicians=more peace, greater prosperity, better health and increased freedom We have been conditioned to think that only politicians can solve our problems. Maybe at some point we'll wake up and recognise that it is our belief in politicians and authority which is the problem.
With high immigration, high housing costs and high cost of living in general Australia will become the country with no kids. It will be a destination to live work and die for adults. Birth rates have been declining for some time and immigration currently accounts for 81% of population growth. If that doesn't tell you something is wrong, nothing will.
Oh it will still have kids, immigrants, especially ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS seem to have no problems breeding dozens and relying on taxpayers funding to raise them.
did you even try to hire these kids you are worring so much? Who spent their childhood studying chemical photo, rhetoric, performance art and gender theory? Who can not find a power plug to connect properly? Who has not a single idea about responsibility, quality, risks, costs for anybody else? Who struggles to add 25 to 50 without a calculator? NO NEED. All talks about "they will work" are bs, they will never work and produce. They can not. Thanks to happy childhood and inclusive school.
Dunno about rats, but I will tell you Sydney is a joke for accommodation costs. We've lived overseas for many years (south London, and southern Spain), and can tell you without a doubt, that even London is far cheaper to live. I cant wait to leave here again. As soon as my youngest child is done with high school (Nov 2026), we're gone. Absolutely no way in hell are we going to put up with this a second longer than necessary.
Poor Irish twenty somethings going down under to avoid this very same issue caused also by migration. Best stay at home. Out of the frying pan and into the fire comes to mind.
I returned to Ireland from Australia just over two years ago, other than everyone telling me I'm mad for leaving Australia, I've been telling people that it's not all beer and skittles down under. Ireland is fast becoming an enriched sh1thole.
The problem is where do the Rats go to as housing is expensive in country towns as well. Rentals are tied to the House prices and that is making renting too expensive as well.
Rental prices are determined by the shortage. House purchase price is loosely tied to rental prices and interest rates and tax rules. The problem is there is a shortage of housing in Sydney and country towns.
Indeed. We left 6 years ago for Brisbane. A lot more affordable, and a different ethnic demographic. I've been watching a few TH-cam videos of Canadians, Brits, Americans moving to Russia of all places. They love it, the shelves are full, and real estate is a lot more affordable.
Remember that the real estate agents are mostly to blame for the situation we are in the more they sell the house for the more they make, the government should set a limit on the agents fee and not a percentage, stop developers supplying land a housing, the government's should be the one's releasing land

It's pretty rude to call people making rational economic decisions rats. Sydney has brought this on itself. If the work in Sydney "needs to be done" then it will proceed at a price commensurate with the incomes required to maintain families in reasonable amenity and security, and not in dangerous sub standard dog boxes ten stories off the ground. Gee I can't think why families with established careers and skills would want to leave such an aspirational waste land, where prospects for both parents and children are so limited. Next, industries will leave too, following the work force and finding cheaper establishment costs into the bargain. Sydney will be filled with migrants and the greenfilth -voting elderly. So instead of encouraging population spread and economic development beyond the Great Dividing Range, NSW government will probably start taxing people in the regions more heavily, and continue to block such developments as tunnels under the Range and reliable cheap energy generation.

@@jasonh.8754 well, I know what you mean when the government allows pop-up tent cities and creates circumstances where people are sleeping in cars on mass. It is so silly that Australians vote for low grade politicians, they always vote for an 'office boy' fit only to get tea and coffee? They need to appoint a person with commercial skills that can run a country like a business, but the person must have morals and a leaning towards preservation of good environments to support nice lives for families. Certainly a young person, that believes in God and wants to balance a good economy with moderate immigration policy. All advanced nations are on the grab for migrants to assist with their aging populations, but moderation is the key. Broad sweeping changes will bring disasterous unintended consequences. The character of Australia does stand the risk of being lost, as America's national character has...but I do not think we are there yet. As a 57 year old female teacher, trained lawyer and economist with business experience and a heart -certainly I would be a better leader for the country than any of the politicians in the parliament today.
@@jetplane10You would never be able to be a politician now. They are selected by their corporate donors for their compliance to the corporate agenda, which includes mass immigration. Govt policies are formulated by the donors, and politicians are the salespeople for these policies, most of which are against the interest of normal Australians.
Grand children are overrated. As long as the old wealthy Sydney residents have an abundant supply of cheap imported labour, then job done Albo. Sydney and the rest of Australia is now for the exclusive use of the wealthy and their slaves. The remainder need to look at SE Asia for their future, especially if you are young and well educated.
A wise person will relocate and live where they and their money are best treated. SE Asia is the go. No woke issues (incl no ABC TV BS) , no funding "special interest groups", far lower taxation, affordable housing and living expenses, and far lower crime (esp politicians) rate.
We need more apartments or townhouses in the $1.5-2.5 range. We need councils within 5-15km of the city to allow more medium density development. There are plenty of double-income professional couples who grew up in the Lower North Shore and Eastern Suburbs who are now in their mid-30s with household incomes >$400k per annum but still cannot afford to buy any sort of 3 bed home in these areas because they simply aren’t building enough.
Big news - eastern suburbs do not build enough! WHERE they should build? In the air? Any tries to rise density immediately cause loudest whine about "these greedy developers destroy our community! They want to build second Bondi Junction! Stand up, protect our lifestyle!".
$1.50-$2.50 is too cheap to expect to buy. Since an ordinary job earns about $50,000 per year it would be reasonable to expect an apartment to cost $150,000. A very rich person being paid $120,000 per year should be able to buy a luxury unit for $360,000 or so

Who cares? Sydney is not the center of the universe. There have been maps made where west of the blue mountains havw been removed and named terra nullnious ,which is latin for "f*+k all"
The federal government must get off their fat arses and force the state government of NSW to rezone all suburbs east of the Sydney CBD to the coast to high density housing.
A lot of people who are young enough to want a decent life style are leaving the west for China and Russia which are still civilised countries. Once you see the graffitti on every available space the writing is on the wall.
Sydney got hemmed in by National Parks. An extra 5 million could live on the land of the Royal National Park. It's only about 0.1% of Australia's forestry and few people go there - it's somewhat pointless.
I live in Sydneys north west (Windsor area), and there is HEAPS of vacant land. Its not being developed because the developers want to keep the prices high and councils are useless.
Apart from some city centre buildings everything else should be fair game for redevelopment especially Haberfield and similar suburbs around Australia.
Blaming high immigration is a very naive cop-out when Australia's Total Fertility Rate (TFR) is 1.6 (need 2.1 for a population to be stable). We have too many town planners stuck in the 1970s and designing communities built around cars instead of people. There are some very well-designed videos on TH-cam that discuss this issue, just search for STROADS. Not only that, many of the long term economics of many of the new Australian communities being built are not sustainable after 20 years, triggering ever rising rate costs as large infrastructure repair costs are being charged to a small community of people.
You are missing out on basic math. Look at Australia's total population growth over the last 40 years. Look at GDP per person decline over the past 10 years.Sensible people do not start families without a nest. Immigration quantity and quality need to be addressed and Oz billionaires desires ignored.
@@ohdearearthlings1879 I dont understand the point you're making. What does the last 40 years have to do with anything? We cant go back in a time machine, and have to deal with the here and now. We can look at the trends, and see where its going, but again, we know its bad today and will be worse tomorrow. Whats your basic point? As far as families go, you're comparing a basic human desire to procreate with what, exactly? There are people all over the world that are dead broke, and they still have families. So, again, whats your point?
@@bigrobsydney Re population-History is a great teacher, when designing the future. I admire your determination to raise Australian children in slums. I have frequently met high rise raised Asians, who are terrified of nature. (eg one small fish jumping into our two man canoe) We have been in a very privileged position, as a society. Let's keep it that way. Poor you. Sydney is a substandard place to grow up.
How is it a cop out. The building industry has been gutted the past few years thanks to supply chain issues and increased building costs. The result is way less houses are now being constructed. So bringing in another million people a year into a country that can't build the required number of houses to accommodate the growth in population is only going to have one effect. Increased rents and property prices in the country. The government knows this and yet they chose to increase immigration levels to an unsustainable level.
@@ohdearearthlings1879 How on earth do you get me raising my kids in slums? We live in Sydney. Is Sydney a slum?

HK gets cheap labour with a domestic helper scheme which Australia must follow. I've been writing to MP's in NZ, but no reply yet. In HK the domestic helpers are never allowed residency and never allowed to buy property. The only difference is we must make the minimum age of 46. They are less than half the cost of the minimum wage but must be provided free food and housing.

If Australia gets any worse the refugees won't want to come here at all... (I just watched a video on refugees in USA, and one interviewee said it was worse than the country he fled from. I mean, WTF???)
@@jasonh.8754 well, I know what you mean when the government allows pop-up tent cities and creates circumstances where people are sleeping in cars on mass. It is so silly that Australians vote for low grade politicians, they always vote for an 'office boy' fit only to get tea and coffee? They need to appoint a person with commercial skills that can run a country like a business, but the person must have morals and a leaning towards preservation of good environments to support nice lives for families. Certainly a young person, that believes in God and wants to balance a good economy with moderate immigration policy.
All advanced nations are on the grab for migrants to assist with their aging populations, but moderation is the key.
Broad sweeping changes will bring disasterous unintended consequences.
The character of Australia does stand the risk of being lost, as America's national character has...but I do not think we are there yet.
As a 57 year old female teacher, trained lawyer and economist with business experience and a heart -certainly I would be a better leader for the country than any of the politicians in the parliament today.
@@jetplane10You would never be able to be a politician now. They are selected by their corporate donors for their compliance to the corporate agenda, which includes mass immigration.
Govt policies are formulated by the donors, and politicians are the salespeople for these policies, most of which are against the interest of normal Australians.
Grand children are overrated. As long as the old wealthy Sydney residents have an abundant supply of cheap imported labour, then job done Albo. Sydney and the rest of Australia is now for the exclusive use of the wealthy and their slaves. The remainder need to look at SE Asia for their future, especially if you are young and well educated.
A wise person will relocate and live where they and their money are best treated. SE Asia is the go. No woke issues (incl no ABC TV BS) , no funding "special interest groups", far lower taxation, affordable housing and living expenses, and far lower crime (esp politicians) rate.
Malaysia welcomes all :)
Who would choose to live in Oz now?
Oh no! The consequences of my actions! How could they!
We need more apartments or townhouses in the $1.5-2.5 range. We need councils within 5-15km of the city to allow more medium density development. There are plenty of double-income professional couples who grew up in the Lower North Shore and Eastern Suburbs who are now in their mid-30s with household incomes >$400k per annum but still cannot afford to buy any sort of 3 bed home in these areas because they simply aren’t building enough.
Big news - eastern suburbs do not build enough! WHERE they should build? In the air? Any tries to rise density immediately cause loudest whine about "these greedy developers destroy our community! They want to build second Bondi Junction! Stand up, protect our lifestyle!".
$1.50-$2.50 is too cheap to expect to buy. Since an ordinary job earns about $50,000 per year it would be reasonable to expect an apartment to cost $150,000. A very rich person being paid $120,000 per year should be able to buy a luxury unit for $360,000 or so
@@davidvanderklauw what you think - we are on Eden garden? Apartment costs 3 year income, food grows on trees and unicorns walking around? 120k (double) Sydney (low) income * 30% = 40K. /6% interest = 650K price. Not 150 as you dream, this is penal colony not a sanatorium.
@@antontsau You have no historical perspective. Inferior housing such as units used to cost 3 times a single salary. This is easily achievable. A humble unit can be constructed for $150k and sold for a profit if certain other factors are sorted out.

Hope not it's just going to drive up prices everywhere else.
Filipinos becoming citizens and buying houses drive up the prices. I've been writing to MP's in NZ, no reply yet. We must follow HK and have a domestic helper scheme where Filipinos and other nationalities can never become residents and never buy property. Except make the staring age of 46.
They come up to Queensland and winge that the environment ,services and people are not like it is in Sydney. No sh&t Sherlock it’s not like Sydney because it’s not Sydney. And we’re supposed to change everything to suit the ex Sydney siders in stead of them working in with the new community.
Lol - leave Sydney because it's too much like Sydney, then complain that the new place is not like Sydney enough. This is how the cancer spreads.
Over priced, over rated, over crowded. A place that just plain sucks.
Leaving Because they took this bloke's property advice.
I’m thinking of retiring in SE Asia . Easier, cheaper, healthier.
Does that include Thirroul Marty ?
Sydney really isn't THAT good unless you're in the top 1%, but the top 1% can afford a great lifestyle anywhere.
Average folk are burning the candle at both ends, and the end result of their efforts is pretty mediocre.
They leave Sydney because it’s too expensive and move to Brisbane and make that expensive.

What do the government of all states More migrants and stuff Aussies
Because the 67% Aussies who own property will be in favour of more migrants propping up their asset prices.

Make Sydney better place - LEAVE! If "young productive family" can not afford Sydney live - it MUST go away. Adelaide waits for bogans!
Because it is not "productive". Its just another product of Australian school system who is not suitable even for plumber apprentice but definitely wants 3br house not far than 10 minutes from CBD.
Who cares? Sydney is not the center of the universe. There have been maps made where west of the blue mountains havw been removed and named terra nullnious ,which is latin for "f*+k all"
You are following the British, well done.
The federal government must get off their fat arses and force the state government of NSW to rezone all suburbs east of the Sydney CBD to the coast to high density housing.
Sydney is a city full of imported grandparents.
A lot of people who are young enough to want a decent life style are leaving the west for China and Russia which are still civilised countries. Once you see the graffitti on every available space the writing is on the wall.
Quick answer to your question Martin: NO.
If they were, house prices would be dropping.
Sydney is VERY desirable, and will continue to be.
Only immigrants can improve penrith and whalan and Lithgow and mt druitt and airds
My daughter just rented an old housing commission house in Mt Druitt that just sold for 1.2 million.
I don't see how anyone can fix this.
I hope that's humour
O well
Sydney got hemmed in by National Parks. An extra 5 million could live on the land of the Royal National Park. It's only about 0.1% of Australia's forestry and few people go there - it's somewhat pointless.
I live in Sydneys north west (Windsor area), and there is HEAPS of vacant land. Its not being developed because the developers want to keep the prices high and councils are useless.
@@andretorben9995 There's 76 acres of land for every Australian - you're right, there's SO MUCH land, but they limit availability to keep prices high.
Apart from some city centre buildings everything else should be fair game for redevelopment especially Haberfield and similar suburbs around Australia.

The greens destroy the world once again 😮
Blaming high immigration is a very naive cop-out when Australia's Total Fertility Rate (TFR) is 1.6 (need 2.1 for a population to be stable). We have too many town planners stuck in the 1970s and designing communities built around cars instead of people. There are some very well-designed videos on TH-cam that discuss this issue, just search for STROADS. Not only that, many of the long term economics of many of the new Australian communities being built are not sustainable after 20 years, triggering ever rising rate costs as large infrastructure repair costs are being charged to a small community of people.
You are missing out on basic math. Look at Australia's total population growth over the last 40 years. Look at GDP per person decline over the past 10 years.Sensible people do not start families without a nest. Immigration quantity and quality need to be addressed and Oz billionaires desires ignored.
@@ohdearearthlings1879 I dont understand the point you're making. What does the last 40 years have to do with anything? We cant go back in a time machine, and have to deal with the here and now. We can look at the trends, and see where its going, but again, we know its bad today and will be worse tomorrow. Whats your basic point? As far as families go, you're comparing a basic human desire to procreate with what, exactly? There are people all over the world that are dead broke, and they still have families. So, again, whats your point?
@@bigrobsydney Re population-History is a great teacher, when designing the future. I admire your determination to raise Australian children in slums. I have frequently met high rise raised Asians, who are terrified of nature. (eg one small fish jumping into our two man canoe) We have been in a very privileged position, as a society. Let's keep it that way. Poor you. Sydney is a substandard place to grow up.
How is it a cop out. The building industry has been gutted the past few years thanks to supply chain issues and increased building costs. The result is way less houses are now being constructed. So bringing in another million people a year into a country that can't build the required number of houses to accommodate the growth in population is only going to have one effect.
Increased rents and property prices in the country.
The government knows this and yet they chose to increase immigration levels to an unsustainable level.
@@ohdearearthlings1879 How on earth do you get me raising my kids in slums? We live in Sydney. Is Sydney a slum?
I was responding to YOUR point about people raising families with whatever amount of money YOU think is necessary. These are YOUR values, not mine. I'll give you a simple question: how much money does a couple need to have before they decide to raise a kid?
First!
they need cheap labor
HK gets cheap labour with a domestic helper scheme which Australia must follow. I've been writing to MP's in NZ, but no reply yet. In HK the domestic helpers are never allowed residency and never allowed to buy property. The only difference is we must make the minimum age of 46.
They are less than half the cost of the minimum wage but must be provided free food and housing.
