Non-profit coop housing has been working for decades in Europe. It is no different from good govt social housing , also working well in Europe for decades (I spent my early years there in social housing in the late 50s early 60s). Long term agreements in some schems are also decades long and a few are no different from home ownership passed on to kids.
It’s all doable, cost effective, socially responsible and a godsend to low wage workers and those who can least afford housing (there is still the issue of waiting lists because there’s never enough …)
Current housing issues in Australia, just like poverty in Australia IS A POLITICAL DECISION. The sooner the electorate understands this, the sooner we can fix it at the ballot box.
