The future of Australian property prices

[moXJO]

Here is one reason Australia has a housing shortage.

I've mentioned that my wife and I are building. It's a two story 3-bedroom townhouse near the beach. The process has been relatively easy so far, the time frame a bit on the longish side but that didn't bother us.

The slab was meant to start at the two weeks ago. Today I received an email -

Continuing on from the previous update, Rendition are urgently and are applying pressure to expedite the process with final documentation with Engineers. In terms of approvals, the Building Rules Consent (BRC) has been lodged with our certifier for assessment; however, the process is currently on hold until the final engineering documents are received and reviewed.​

​

Types of Consent​

​

Planning Consent – GRANTED​

​

Planning consent is granted by assessing the development against the planning code to ensure it complies with Council regulations.​

​

Building Rules Consent – LODGED​

​

Building consent is granted by assessing the development against the building code to ensuite works will be undertaken in a safe and compliant manner.​

​

Development Approval – PENDING APPROVAL OF ALL CONSENTS​

​

Development approval is the final piece in the process, which is a legal document that allows you to undertake a development. Development approval cannot be granted until each of the different types of consent have been obtained, including planning and building rules. This signifies that construction works is approved to commence, and the pre-construction process has concluded.​

​

Thank you for your patience with this update, we look forward to seeing these homes come to life in 2025​

I've seen some stupid architectural stuff ups occurring on buildings. What exactly are they checking I wonder.

Realistically AI should be able to streamline the process relatively soon.

You are also a voter, does that mean you are to be blamed?

the last time i voted for a successful candidate was about 2009 for a lady who became the Council Chairwoman

she was so good Peter Beattie changed the boundaries to make sure she would never be elected again

( my voting is very much like my WOW votes a wasted effort , no matter how many shares i held at the time )

That's how it goes, win some lose a few more.

Democracy has served Australia well, don't let the negative media convince you that the system is all wrong.

keeping voting for who YOU think is right and let everybody else do the same.

The only thing I see that needs to be strengthened to keep us on the right track is education, history and politics in school. I was lucky to have gone to schools that had good curriculum and teachers, they gave us the tools to understand by teaching us about our system and its history. I would like to see all Australian schools making sure such lessons are part of their curriculum.
