There’s a different sound to the Flat Chat Wrap this week,
Firstly it was recorded over Zoom, then Jimmy seems to have acquired hay fever in the south of France, the lavender-growing capital of the world.
And then it’s been hastily edited on his laptop in between hikes, hotel moves and failing internet.
But the show must go and and this week Jimmy and Sue talk about what difference (if any) last week’s budget meant to the housing crisis,.
There's the Sydney council that wants to tax owners who leave their properties empty while it also wants to ban no-fault evictions and allow tenants to sign leases for several years at a time.
And finally, the strata scheme that’s in dispute with Sydney city over a tree that could be a killer.
That’s all in this week’s French- flavoured Flat Chat Wrap.
