Three things to know about pet approvals: Further updates to strata pet regulations in Queensland The ink is barely dry on the new legislation governing strata in Queensland and regulations governing pets have already been further refined, in favour of pets. Where previously a body corporate committee had 6 weeks to respond to an application for a pet to be kept in a lot, the prescribed period for a committee to consider a pet request has been shortened to 21 days. If the committee does not make a decision within the prescribed period, the pet is deemed to be approved.  Alternatively, if a general meetingRead More →

Astonishing new data from the ABS has laid bare the Queensland Government’s bumper bounty from property tax revenue over FY23, all while the State endures a housing crisis. The data, which excludes coal royalties, shows stamp duty now accounts for 25 percent of the tax base for the State Government compared to 20 percent ten years ago. Additionally, property taxes (stamp duty and land tax) have risen by 133 percent (more than doubled) over the past ten years, equating to an additional $4.2 billion per year.

I was amused and horrified in equal measure recently. No, I hadn’t stumbled across a friend watching Married at First Sight, albeit my rare glimpses of this “entertainment” when I do witness such an event have left me somewhat appalled. The so-called MAFS phenomenon amazes me. I can only tolerate it in very small doses and only while heavily affected by gardening. My god! The premise seems immediately simple and confronting. Gather together a group of emotionally damaged and dysfunctional people, add a few mental health issues, stir in some misappropriation of real feelings and launch. What I found most disturbing was not the show.Read More →

Relatively stable yet dangerously low vacancy rates over the first quarter of 2024 are a cold comfort to renters desperately trying to find a place to call home in Queensland.
