Just the tip of a massive iceberg, many houses built in the boom also have major problems (although lower consequence than towers). Quality, cost and rapid build, you can only choose two of these parameters, this is a natural law.
mass immigration of unskilled workers working on student/holiday visas or put down as a manager then work as cheap labor which inturn undercuts aussies who would do a quality job but now the only way to compete is lower there quality. I lived in Sydney as a tradesman not related to the housing industry but i would drive around to different sites all over Sydney and i called it in 2016. My gf wanted to buy an apartment and i was like i haven't seen 1 aussie on these construction sites they are all back packers or students building them they will all fall apart and now look at them. not trying to brag just saying what the problem is and as a tradesman i know other tradies and they all say the same thing
let's not blame the immigrants for what's happening to our economy. hear me out. it is because of our own making, firstly we wanted the equal work rights for men and women, so what used to be a scarce labor market now has an abundance of labor force which drives the wage down because more people are competing for the same jobs, while our household expenses don't necessarily go up substantially whether there are one or two income earners, so what the government did, was to grant immigration by the millions( Australia population increased by about 25% in the last 10 years alone), this certainly boosted the economy, more people means more needs for services, food, housing etc which generates the need for services providers and workers which allows our men and women more opportunities to have a job, drives up GDP, making labor force scarce again, drive up wage growth and wealth created through property. the immigrants were not the origin of the problems. Honestly, if it weren't for the immigrants, Australia would most likely not possible to have 30 so-called lucky years without a recession. we wanted equal work rights, the government merely gave us wanted, we asked for it, that is all.
Exactly. Just take a look at what they build back home, then ask yourself would you live in it. If the answer is hell no, then it's probably a good idea not to live in what they build here. In my work I see cracks and mould in all these new buildings and homes. I also only see imported workers on site.
3000 residents in 392 units. 7.65 residents per unit at full occupancy. The media must have used the overseas student crush loading occupation coefficient on that calculation. Given that Opal units were only around 85% occupied that figure would be around 9 residents per unit!
When the Lego towers are stronger than the concrete one's, there's a major problem with councilors that continue to allow more of them to be built ? With whole councils being sacked of late, corruption within many of them, some now incarcerated as was Salim, a royal commission into all councils is paramount to find solutions to this growing problem, before the count is fatalities not buildings.
People who are in renting if they go to tribunal for any bond claimed by landlord Inspite of renter going to the tribunal office and letting them know from certain specific dates will be out of country for vacation the tribunal holds the meeting in the absence of renter and gives all bond money to the landlord .......God sees everything and these scums will rot in hell
You are being a bit harsh on those poor struggling developers trying to make an honest buck or two providing all those lucky buyers with high quality units at rock bottom prices.
It’s all fun and games while the profiteering runs rabid. The owners are complicit, they were expecting a bigger idiot to bail out their sh!t reasoning. Let them eat cake
Can't argue with you there The entire property market has been fuelled by greed. Mainly boomers and Chinese money launderers Pity the first home buyers right now will be permanently affected by this ponzi
@@AusFeral23 All the more reason for our governments to legislate and enforce even higher standards and tighter controls. The public would even help the government with the enforcement task if the public knew who to report the matters to. Unfortunately our governemnts have been happy to take the short term benefits of imigration and pocket the money, without directing that funding to build infrastructure, improve building and driving standasrds, education standards and healthcare. Rather than nurturing the goose that laid the golden egg, they ate it for its delicious meat.
Benjamin cooper I’m from China. I was once international student. Now I’m paying huge amount of tax to Australian government and donate regularly to Australian charities. Unlike the people you looking for, taking up all the money from society benefit and still robbing panssagers
Benjamin cooper do you know the people flee from poverty get a whole new apartment for free in Melbourne that worth above 400K? I’m wondering if you could live better than that. Btw where are you from mate?

I know - I live in one. Glad I am only renting... this 5 year old house is falling apart.
Im surprised, shocked really that many of these City of Sydney representives aren't hiding and worried for their lives
Don't be shocked at all. These people are fit for the job. A good person wouldn't be able to sleep and be wreck.
Shocking news indeed. I thought those conditions mentioned could only happen in public housings. What a shame!

Reckon around 30 - 50% of the workers on the major jobs in Melbourne are Chinese imports who speak little or no English

there should be NO MORE SO-CALLED INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS but actual people looking to flee their countries of poverty.
Great video!!!
