ACT Housing Accord Stalls

New data reveals a sharp 17% plunge in ACT home approvals since the National Housing Accord began, now averaging just 290 monthly—down from 350 before the accord. Completed homes and construction loans are also falling, as builders blame red tape, tree preservation delays, and soaring fuel costs for crippling progress. With the ACT lagging 1,450 homes behind its 30,000 target, industry leaders say the bottleneck isn’t quality—it’s bureaucracy. Streamlining approvals without cutting standards is now seen as the only way to meet housing goals. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
