HOUSING TRACKER #3 TWO SIGNS, ONE JOKE

"A Carport and Two Signs: The Farcical Arithmetic of Australia's Housing Crisis"

Executive Summary
This is not a housing strategy. This is performance art. In a land where ambition once meant a backyard and a barbecue, today's national dream is a front fence and a carport on a block of dirt—provided, of course, someone else pays for the NBN trench and the sewer pipe.

Two men stand before the public. One holds a sign promising $27,000 per home. The other offers $10,000. Together, they have funded... a driveway. Maybe.

And still, we applaud. Because it sounds like progress.
