I could write 10 pages about why housing should be accessible everybody in Australia but I probably won’t ⛺️

Instead, I’m going to ask why is it Councils decision to decide what to do about a National Crisis? Housing in Australia has never been so inaccessible and the building industry can’t keep up. There isn’t enough housing, not enough materials, not enough builders, inflations hit and there’s not enough sense in this whole country to fix this Housing crisis. It’s a Tiny problem that needs a Tiny fix ❓

There have been crisis’s piled on top of crisis’s in the past 3 years. Fire, Floods, Mould and Covid have changed property and not for the better. A whole generation has lost out. Mothers are stressed. Fathers are stressed and have people forgot about the children? ��

Borrowing power has gone down even for people who have saved for years and years and did the right thing just to watch property value increase. Council has pretty much red taped the ability to be an owner builder anymore (without equity) but what if they were tiny homes? What about tiny home loans spread over a longer term than the typical 7 but not your typical 30 years either. Remembering that some people don’t know what equity means because they are busy looking to put a roof over their heads ⛺️

So what if homeless people meaning teens, single retiring woman and men/ families/ basically anyone could build there own little tiny homes that they can retire in or use as equity to even touch the property ladder? Or recoup in after living on the street? Homes for woman experiencing family and domestic violence or everyday families willing to squeeze into one to get out of mortgage stress. OR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO WORK FOR A A TINY HOME. People could volunteer to help build for THE HOMELESS PEOPLE IN AUSTRALIA RIGHT NOW.

SO WHAT IF TINY HOMES WERE AVAILABLE AUSTRALIA WIDE REGARDLESS OF COUNCILS OPINION. Housing is a National issue and should be addressed as such. What if tiny homes could reduce the rates of council because they are put on Crown Land and the people pay rent for the land like land rates but for renters. Council provides a weekly bin service (paid for by tiny home renters) and maybe this idea could reduce the hit on home owners who have just seen around 40% increases because the value of the land has gone up further pushing away the idea of homeownership. So how has vacant land in almost Australia doubled after it was burnt or flooded? Demand is greater than supply that’s how and property is booming but at what cost? People are coping it all ends with inflation, covid, floods, mould crisis’s and the price of daycare while wages aren’t rising. In Things are unaffordable especially housing yet not all councils in Australia approve of Tiny Homes. �

A whole generation is stuck on the internet competing for rentals. Rental bids? Should be illegal. I wonder how can teenagers compete. Oh they can’t. Que youth homelessness and mental health.

So again why is a National issue a Council choice? Make it National across all of Australia that Tiny Home are homes.

Why make people suffering from the rental crisis’s move all the time? What if people could migrate across rural Tiny Towns in Australia where needed. Towns crying out for workers and young people who left to the city for a better life. Need more workers out west? No worries farmers can sublet tiny homes. Need urgent accommodation for Nurses or Doctors in Regional Towns? Tiny homes. Sick of the housing crisis? Tiny homes. Tired of getting asked for money by the homeless everytime your shopping? Tiny Homes.

The Crown plots could have their sustainable power and all the eco bells and whistles and pay their own rates and provide safety and shelter to some of those sleeping rough tonight.

If people choose to buy tiny there will be less stress on the rental market. Everyone might have the chance of homeownership again. What if everyday people and families could spend $100,000 and own their own home or even better learn the skills to build one and rebuild all the houses lost due to Fire, Flood and replace the ones filled with asbestos.

What if single men and woman and retirees could afford to build tiny and had somewhere to put one and didn’t have to move all the time. What if all the places that have flooded that have now lost DA to build on well how about put a tiny home there? I mean it has wheels so it if floods home owners could move their insured home to another place until they can put it back if lands the issue. Land isn’t the issue though, councils and tiny home/ caravan laws are. 

Sign this petition for the people who probably don’t even have a phone or internet to sign this petition. And give to a homeless person ffs. Have a heart �
