The housing crisis keeps getting worse, and major parties have done nothing to fix it. Prices are too high, renting is tough, and social housing is lacking. Politicians should put people first, not big investors.
More Homes for Locals
There aren’t enough homes in regional areas like the Central West. The government focuses on cities while country towns miss out. We need housing policies that help locals, not just investors.
Fairer Renting
Renting is too expensive, and tenants have little security. We need stronger protections, fair leases, and limits on unfair rent hikes so people can stay in their communities.
Infrastructure for Growth
Building homes isn’t enough—we also need better transport, healthcare, and schools. That’s why Kate Hook backs the concept of a Regional Housing Infrastructure Fund to support growing communities.
Fixing Construction Costs
Building homes is costly due to worker shortages. We need more training programs and incentives to get skilled builders working in regional areas.
Smarter Housing
Homes should be affordable, energy-efficient, and built for people, not just investors. Better housing design will cut power bills and help the environment.
Time for Action
The solutions exist—what’s missing is political courage. Independents like Kate Hook aren’t tied to party politics and will fight for real change.
It’s time to fix the housing crisis. It’s time for leaders who listen.
