it's not a Australian specific problem

we have a nearly world wide city housing crises (if you ignore cities which are falling apart and consider affordability)

and as far as I can tell a major driving fair is how in recent years a lot of people with a lot of money increasingly did invest into residential land not for self use or for substainable renting but instead as speculative investment or land bank

giving his a crisis of affordable housing in the population centers can easily lead to civil unrest and even be a thread for democracy I would argue both should not be allowed (for residential land/apartments)
