The call for a buyers’ strike by Prosper Australia’s campaign manager David Collyer has been picked up by social reform group GetUp.
Why not vote here now in favour of a buyers’ strike? (You may record up to 3 votes.)
Better still: don’t buy a house now. There’ll be better buying shortly!
It’s a tragedy that many good people will have their lives turned upside down if/when the property market tanks. If the banks seize up under the squeeze then we can also expect a significant rise in unemployment. It could turn out to be a real disaster for Australia, in fact it’s almost certain. Nevertheless, I support this campaign and hope first home buyers really do go on strike. What other option do they have?
