Well, the state elections are not far off, and hopefully one of the issues that gets aired will be the need for higher density housing in and around the Perth CBD area.
There are more and more people working in this district than those in the fringe or new suburbs, and yet the amount of homes being built just can't keep up with the influx. One of the issues I know that the people will be demanding a look-in are the soaring rent prices. We're a rich State, but the rent prices are making it hard, if not impossible for those of a median income to live closer to where they work or study.
In the year ending September 2012, rents had risen by over 15%, and it looks as if this trend will continue if a higher density plan for housing isn't put into place soon.
Read about this in more depth in my article published on Business2.com.au.
