Ep. 148 - Rental Affordability in Crisis: What the Data Really Tells Us

In this solo episode, Neil Gibb takes a deep dive into Anglicare Australia's 2024 Rental Affordability Snapshot, highlighting the worsening crisis that's pushing essential workers—our nurses, teachers, hospitality workers, and cleaners—into rental stress or homelessness. 📊 With only 0.6% of rental listings in WA deemed affordable for hospitality workers and less than 1% for many essential roles nationwide, this report puts hard numbers to a reality we've been warning about for years. Neil breaks down: The key findings from Anglicare's 2024 report Why traditional housing models are failing our communities How HMO and co-living provide real, cashflow-positive solutions The growing role of employers in providing housing The case for compassionate capitalism in the real estate sector If you're an investor wondering how to do good and generate strong returns—or just want a no-BS update on Australia's housing crisis—this episode is essential listening.
