Housing to play a ‘big role’ in Tasmanian electorate

Redbridge Group Director Simon Welsh says housing will play a “big role” in the Tasmanian electorate. Mr Welsh said a lot of groups have told him about the housing crisis “in and around Hobart”. “There’s an Airbnb problem that’s sort of driving rents and housing affordability in the North. “It’ll be one of those background issues that feeds into what we’re expecting to see in the broader picture. “It’ll be sort of this background effect that’s feeding into this plunge that we’re expecting to see on the major party votes.”
