THE cost of shifting the balance of new development in Sydney away from existing areas in favour of the city fringe could be as much as $5 billion over the next 25 years, a report commissioned by the former Labor government, but never made public, reveals.
The report, by the Centre for International Economics, was delivered to the Keneally government in December 2010, three months before last year's election.
During the election campaign the then opposition leader, Barry O'Farrell, said if he won he would alter the development mix in the government's metropolitan plan, which said 70 per cent of new housing should be in established urban areas, and the rest at the fringe.
What's up? The missus giving you hassle for making her live in someone else's house after you sold to rent in Adelaide when prices were lower than they are now? Missus wants a baby - but in her own house?
Yes, we are getting into renter cliches! You should have asked if he lives in his parents basement with his wife, even worse! Those silly peasants who don't own.
I love an Australia where home ownership divides us into nice classes, like Victorian England. Keep up the good worth, Marquis Strindberg ;)
You're very abusive for a brand new poster. Just your first day of posting includes:
You're also very dishonest. You pretend you're not hobo-jo/bullion baron. You refuse to pay up on your debts. You devote half your website to dedicated attacks on posters on other forums. You deny a right of reply to those you personally attack.

perhaps it was provoked by the constant and obviously irritating unsubstantiated claims tech is someone else ?
It's easy bullies to lure someone into abusive posts when people are being this way, and then to come crying to the forum that 'the new boy is being nasty and has a potty mouth'.
As for your other claims, put up substantial evidence, or shut up.... for all we know you are BB/hobo jo/shady.
As for your personal attack about tech's supposed misses, you might want to look closer to home to resolve your own glass house before throwing these fabricated stones at the wrong house. :rolleyes:

Logic fail. Hobo-jo's very first posts as tech_support (the ones quoted above) were all unprovoked personal attacks on Strindberg and myself.
This was before Strindberg or I even mentioned the fact that he was hobo-jo.
BTW, did hobo-jo or Bullion Baron or tech_support point you in the direction of that CBA booklet from Bullion Baron's blog that you posted last week, or was it just a strange coincidence that you happened to find it at the appropriate time?

I love this forum! It is like being inside an interrogation cell during the Great Terror
"did you collaborate with the royalists??? did you?!? to the guillotine!!!"

yeah, right.. :rolleyes:
Well I call bullshit They were not all before you guys started up this endless attempt at 'outing'.
Shadow 7 Feb 2012, 05:00 PM LOL, you wrote it Bullion Baron! I suppose now you'll try to tell me you and Bullion Baron just decided by coincidence to attack me on the same topic on the same day using the same rebuttal. You're not actually fooling anyone. I guess feeding information to Rastus to post here wasn't working for you anymore?
How interesting that Rastus would decide to post the same thing here today just before you joined in...
Tech's response. Shads I am just a long term reader who got sick of the popups... Im no baron and only going on the links posted in this thread... You post something silly and then expect only 1 person to point out how wrong you are? More than 1 person and they must be working together? cuckoo. got tinfoil?
perhaps it was provoked by the constant and obviously irritating unsubstantiated claims tech is someone else ?

Nope. Your allegation that tech_support was "provoked" is utter made up rubbish. He provoked myself and Shadow with abuse in his first posts.
This was tech_support's FIRST POST, in its entirety:

There's a multitude of plans for new apartment buildings being unveiled for this year and a variety of new stages in developments now being built.
Yet despite Sydney apartment construction rising slightly in the the past year - recent ABS data shows apartment approvals jumped 7.4 per cent in 2011 - there's still a massive shortfall. There are simply not enough new developments to accommodate the up to 80,000 people moving to Sydney each year, given that just 23,051 new dwellings were built in 2011 (see Weekly Snapshot, Domain Houses).
''There's an enormous shortfall,'' says the chief executive of Urban Taskforce Australia, Chris Johnson. ''Because of the current economic climate and the uncertainty of planning, the development industry is being very cautious in relation to building new apartments, particularly within the Sydney metropolitan area. There'll be a big problem down the track.''
Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.
