## Resource

Young Australians are locked out of rental markets despite solid jobs and references, forced to go to extreme lengths—writing cover letters, paying months ahead, or getting family to co-sign—to prove they’re stable tenants. With landlords favoring older applicants and housing shortages driving fierce competition, many face homelessness. New services charge fees to bolster applications, while Queensland’s rent caps offer little relief. The crisis is forcing a generation to fight for basic independence, with youth shelters overflowing as the human cost mounts. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
