MODERATORS
They used to own and manage houses. It was focused towards providing housing for the most needy and I think it worked quite well for its stated purpose. I mean there was always a bunch of news stories about people trashing those houses but those people would've trashed any house they rented. At least Housing Tas had a team of maintenance personnel that could fix it back up.
It's the same as "Housing Commission" homes here in QLD then - https://www.qld.gov.au/housing/public-community-housing
They used to have neighborhoods of them but others were just dotted about the place to avoid the slum effect (no offence intended). You can ID them in parts of Brisbane by the housing style, they were built different than every other house in postwar neighbourhoods.
So, yeah, that would be good but an expansion that every landbastard has to join up to and every renter joins the scheme, not just the disadvantaged. Real estates contract to just selling.
