This week we take a swing at polarising polititicians who are hoping to fire up the Nimbys against medium-density housing.
They know it's what the state needs, they know it will help resolve the housing crisis, they don't have a viable solution, but hey, if it means they can get a few more votes in marginal constituencies, to Hell with the homeless.
Then we go back to the future with Company Title. Are apartment blocks where owners set their own rules and have nothing to do with strata law the answer for the strataphobic?
Even today there are company title blocks that can ban pets, Airbnbs and even kids. What's the catch? We have a look.
And finally a new development of micro-apartments with shared common areas and compact living areas is already oversubscribed. Sue gives the concept the thumbs up, Jimmy likes a bit more space. You can see inside one in a clip from the Today show HERE
That's all in this weeks' Flat Chat Wrap
