7News Melbourne spoke to a homebuyer about our research, The Hidden Cost of Housing, showing 19-34% of a new home price is government taxes & charges. He was particularly surprised that the cost of gov charges is significantly higher than developer profit. #MakeHousingAffordable

It's getting harder for Victorians to break into the housing market and a new study has revealed one reason why. It's found home buyers are handing up to a third of their hard-earned money to the government in taxes and levies. 7NEWS.com.au @LouisaCheatley #7NEWS
Our new research, The Hidden Cost of Housing, highlights how much of a new home purchase price is attributable to Commonwealth, State and Local Government taxes, charges and levies. We need governments at each level to address this growing issue and #MakeHousingAffordable

Coverage of our industry panel webinar, talking about #VIChousing market. afr.com/property/residential… #Property settlements and poor sentiment were flagged as key concerns for our industry in the immediate future. Read more by reading the article via @MichaelBleby @AFRproperty

Settlements are the big risk to property

Workers in industries hardest hit by the pandemic will struggle for funding for new purchases or to complete contracted ones.

“If the government gives buyers the confidence to purchase now, the buyer will win, the housing industry will win and Victoria will become the homeowners state,” said @danni_addison via @JMasanauskas @theheraldsun #homeownerstate heraldsun.com.au/news/victor…

Today we launched our Roadmap to Recovery & it's all about making VIC the new 'Homeowner State'. Let's jump on this rare opportunity to finally tip the scales in favour of the home buyer (especially first home buyers). udiavic.com.au/UDIA/media/Po… #homeownerstate #advocacyinaction
afr.com/property/residential… #Greenfield research presented to us shows VIC residential land market activity dropped 61% in first 6 weeks of lockdown. We're calling on VIC government to stimulate demand for new homes to keep industry & economy afloat. @AFRproperty @larryschles

Lockdown sends housing lot sales crashing

New lot sales fell between 60 and 80 per cent in the first six weeks of the lockdown, new research shows.

No doubt we need to shift from the debilitating up-front #StampDuty cost asked of home buyers. With home buyers’ purchasing power on the decline, it’s time for government to rethink this major revenue raising tax. #advocacyinaction
