The latest report on house prices indicates the cost of buying a home has fallen slightly across the country. But, the latest figures are of little comfort to those who rent or who are homeless.
The digital property portal Domain has just published its latest report on home prices in Australia.
It shows the cost of buying a house fell 4-point-9 per cent in the last quarter - which works out to be around $53,000.
In practical terms, that means more people are caught in the middle - either paying more than they can comfortably afford, or not in housing at all.
Advocates say women fleeing domestic violence are among the most vulnerable.
