Rents have been increasing at alarming levels, potential buyers are being priced out of the housing market, and homelessness levels are rising.

As many Australians struggle to buy food, let alone meet rental and mortgage payments, debates about which polices could fix the crisis continue.

We’d like to find out more about how the pressures of both renting and buying homes are affecting people’s lives.

Has your income, health, quality of life or relationship been affected by the housing crisis? Has the choice of where and how you live been driven by factors that you feel are not in your control?
