NSW Concerns About Bridge Housing

[MPR]

I am an owner /occupier in an inner Sydney suburb where our rents and property values would be considered to be expensive. In the last couple of years a couple of owners/investors have entered into tenancy agreements with Bridge Housing - one of many accommodation agencies being used by FACS to manage the placement of welfare tenants in NSW. For the past year multiple neighbours have had their lives negatively impacted by the people placed into these apartments by Bridge Housing. Constant calls to Police and Strata management have become a daily activity. These agencies are supposed to have a duty of care in the placements they make. Recent shocking experiences in our building involving drugs/security concerns have lead us all to wonder if, as an owners corporation we have a right to prevent owners signing leases with accommodation agencies like Bridge Housing?? Please help!!!

From my experience complaints like these aren’t to do with the actual person it’s a deflection from the actual complaint being about judging someone and making allegations about anything they can think of because they don’t like people from low socio economic communities, however… you have to just accept it and maybe focus on the actual fact that maybe you need to get some therapy to uncover your emotions being hurt.
Stop judging others and maybe look in the mirror and focus on what you can do to help instead of being a Karen

And it seems like you need to get the facts before aligning organisations that do not exist anymore it’s actually DCJ not FACS, FACS has not been around for years now

And before you jump to your own opinions, I was actually homeless for 13 years and have experienced multiple people like yourself… I now work and study in the mental health sector and have been for the past 5 years!!
