Some important notes that ABS released that are concerned with this statistics were on the initiatives within the government stimulus package, which include the "Building the Education Revolution" (BER) program and Social Housing initiative, and the interest rate cuts by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) whose impact is yet to be felt. RBA's further interest rate cut this month would potentially support the housing activity in the succeeding months.If you're planning to develop a real estate property and want to know how to go about your building project management smoothly and all required approvals done, it would be better to have a building project manager to guide you through and process the documents and requirements needed for your project.
