The housing crisis is still uppermost in many minds but there's a new twist with a former Mirvac boss, now an advisor to the government, telling the Prime Minister to do something he knows is right but is political poison.
Then there's a new way of investing in rental properties without becoming an evil landlord (or lady).
Airbnb founder Brian Chesky "airbrushes" the global holiday letting monster, saying he wishes he'd never let it loose to take people's homes. (Pauses to sniff away a tear.)
And Sydney MP Alex Greenwich wants to make life just a bit easier for renters.
Also, before we go, next week we'll have the first part of the recent Lawyer in the Hot Seat webinar here as a podcast. Enjoy.
