Street Talks Melbourne

As property prices in Australia’s two largest markets, Sydney and Melbourne, start to find a bottom, buyers are beginning to flock back. The latest figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) show Australians borrowed 1.3% more in June than they did in May, and it’s being put down to the property market. With prices plummeting in both capital cities since 2017, the month of May saw buyers return to the market as auction sales ticked up to their highest level in 18-months. “Consistent with recent house price movements, the decline in new lending commitments for dwellings has slowed in recent months,” ABS director of financial statistics Ben Dorber said in a statement accompanying the new numbers. “In June we saw rises in new lending commitments for both owner-occupier and investor dwellings for the first time in over a year.” Read more:  https://www.businessinsider.com.au/home-buyers-are-diving-back-into-the-market-as-sydney-and-melbourne-prices-stabilise-2019-...

Mareia Teh’s eyes were fixed open but pointing in different directions, almost like they were fixated on opposite sides of the darkened room. She was non-responsive — the 63-year-old’s vibrant spirit, so present just months earlier, extinguished so suddenly and cruelly. “She was twitching and gasping for air, like someone was choking her,” her daughter Belinda recalled to news.com.au, her voice breaking with raw emotion. “My mother was totally unrecognisable. She stank. She looked awful and her skin was all these different colours — grey, purple, yellow and blue.” Mareia was extremely agitated as the end of her life approach, despite having been sedated repeatedly. Nurses at the hospice in Perth explained that when she twitched too much, Belinda should press a bell. They would come to review her mum’s condition and give more morphine to try to settle her for a while. “And so, she would twitch, we’d press the bell, we’d wait for the nurse, the nurse would give more morphine...

Thursday, Friday and the weekend will be bitingly cold and dangerously windy for millions in the path of a massive winter storm headed north from the Bass Strait. Forecasters have warned of “bitter” temperatures as the mercury plummets at a rate of knots. Melbourne could sink to as low as 5C on the weekend, while if you head inland a low of zero is a real possibility even on lower ground. On higher ground, expect minimums of -8C and snow blizzards. It’s not just Victoria — Tasmania, South Australia, the ACT and New South Wales will all see a slide in temperatures. Lows of -3C in Canberra; further north Sydney could see the highs drop from a spring like 23C to a wintry 16C on Sunday. The Bureau of Meteorology has issued a severe weather warning for Victoria ahead of a polar low set to smash into the southeast of Australia tomorrow and hang around until Monday next week.
