Why do material costs and building costs magically increase at the same rate as house prices? Or is it the other way around?

 

[peetoo]

Runaway housing prices are driven by high demand from immigration, investment in our property market by international /domestic speculators and supply constraints due to over regulation, lack of building resources, tradesmen, and government taxes and charges built in at every stage of the supply chain. Every step of this shit show is directly the fault of government policy and at this point I reckon it has to be deliberate.

Not sure about over regulation when so many ‘dog box apartments’ have been built

And thermal efficiency in housing will go a long way to ease climate issues
