“There needs to be a real balancing of position so that landlords are equally supported as tenants are being at the moment,” Ms Calnan said. “Landlords are getting very little support from government.
“It leaves landlords high and dry, we’ve got examples of tenants that haven’t paid rent since April this year. “I want to acknowledge that we understand tenants are doing it hard … but there’s equally the same number of landlords doing it hard.”
Rather than moan at someone who has an investment property & is struggling there is another way to look at this.often these are ppl who try to better their situation, ideally -ultimately being financially independent & not reliant on welfare. The more that fail=more on handouts
From day one Andrews labor government has been against real estate agents and private investors.........Odd thing is, in the meantime he has sold off 75% of pubic housing set aside by the Bolte Government near 60 years ago for an increasing population. Work that out.
Actually high and dry will come when Great Depression 2 hits in about 5-7 years
The Andrews government is still collecting Land tax. I'd like to see any landlord successfully apply for any relief. It's near impossible. laborfail auspol springst
Let me get my tiny violin out.
Fuck the landlords they have been ripping off tenants for years
Cry me a river.
TOUGH
You don't get government support if you lost money on the stock market. How is this investment different? If you want a return on your investment, then sell it. Sick of everyone putting their hand out when they're not even poor. Our ungrateful, entitled society is horrible
Victorian real estate is in REAL trouble after its Leaders have been exposed as: INCOMPETENT, OVER-CONFIDENT, SMUG, AUTHORITARIAN, UNACCOUNTABLE & ENTRENCHED;The system is broken;The lives,destines & lifestyles of citizens have been degraded;It is time to LEAVE this failed State.
What is certain a major fall in property prices would be the nail in the coffin for most hard working Victorians all because of a careless government.
I respect that. Can someone explain to me how a landlord is negatively affected? Other than no income from an investment.
Oh no I guess people who bought properties before a massive boom, took advantage of negative gearing and then ripped off tenants and treated them like sub-humans, are now not getting the extra few cents they want
Maybe that’s because tenants need more assistance than people like me who own property springst auspol
Since when are landlords responsible for social housing. If you don’t pay rent, out you go. Landlords have bills to be paid too.
I haven’t recieved any rent payment for 3 months from the tenant and they continue to refuse and tell me they are protected by Dan Andrews 😩. Trying to get them out now. No government support either
This a disaster and where are the class action lawyers to sue this negligent government. Myself and my parents have worked generations to own property and it is being devalued by Dan and his clowns so as to manage a virus which is under control.
