Keep a Checklist for Easy and Hassle-Free House Removals
“The Great Australian Dream isn’t gone; it’s just a smaller dream now,” said Monarch Investments Chief Executive Officer Peter Icklow on the trend of reducing the size of houses from 250 square meters to 160-170 square meters. To respond to the declining demand for houses and rising land costs, Australian home builders and realty developers have to reduce the sizes of the houses and lots. Bloomberg reported that major land and building developers have resorted to this affordability strategy with Stockland cutting their average house-and-land size package by almost 20% and Australand redesigning the homes as they shrink them.
