SYDNEY, Jan. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Newly published figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) reveal that the mean price of residential dwellings in New South Wales has increased over the last quarter and is the highest in the country at $1,233,600, with the ACT and Queensland in second and third spots. The ABS Total Value of Dwellings released December 2024 (September Quarter 2024) shows that the value of house dwellings has risen by $156.3 billion in the last quarter of 2024 to $11,093.8 billion, the first time that the total value of residential dwellings has surpassed $11 trillion. Results show values rising in New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia. These increases put further pressure on renters and first-time home buyers in an already scarce and budget-busting housing market. Speaking about the newly released ABS Total Value of Dwellings figures, PennyGranny Founder and CEO Michael Doubinski said: "These figures speak to the dire shortage of affordable housing, particularly for renters and first-time buyers. "We launched PennyGranny portable housing in 2021 to answer the need for affordable rentals and housing in the post-COVID era. Since then, we have sold or hired over 300 portable homes. We are receiving more calls month on month, largely due to the scarcity and cost of homes to rent or buy. The figures from the ABS certainly fit the pattern that we're seeing at PennyGranny. A high-quality portable home installed in Glenroy by PennyGranny "In the last twelve months, we've expanded our workforce by 30% and opened a new office in Milsons Point, Sydney to meet demand for a cost-effective solution in the current housing crisis. "We plan to expand into Far North Queensland which is just as well considering the latest ABS release shows that Queensland now has the third largest mean price in the country ($915,700). A new showroom will open by the end of 2025 which will improve delivery times and better serve customers in remote areas. "With over 40 leads per week, we know that renters and first-time buyers are finding it extremely difficult to get a foot on the property ladder," said Michael. With up to three bedrooms, many of PennyGranny's portables come with a fully fitted kitchen, bathroom and amenities such as air conditioning, instantaneous hot water and laundry. The larger portables, such as The Josephine, measure 49sqm in total. For clients seeking custom solutions, PennyGranny offers the ability to create larger homes, up to an impressive 126sqm with standard and luxury finishes. These bespoke buildings can be tailored to be entirely self-sufficient (off-grid) by incorporating features such as solar panels, incinerating toilets, and other sustainable technologies. Additionally, custom-covered decks can be added to expand the living space and enhance the functionality of the building. "Our portables are built in Australia and meet rigorous quality and construction standards. They're also sustainable and eco-friendly, using specially selected materials and energy-efficient design elements. "We are trying our best to work as quickly as possible to make our portables available. We know people are desperate to move into homes, especially at this time of year. That's why we work closely with local councils, town planners, and developers to establish and approve affordable housing," finished Michael. Latest figures from ABS show that the value of dwellings continued to rise in New South Wales (+0.9%), Queensland (+2.9%), South Australia (+4.1%) and Western Australia (+5%). The mean price of residential dwellings rose by $9,300 to $985,900. PennyGranny customer Wendy Phillips chose a PennyGranny portable when she couldn't find a property in budget for her mother. "The hunt was on for somewhere for Mum to live. She has emphysema, so can't handle stairs, and her eyesight is declining rapidly due to macular degeneration. Rents on the Gold Coast have soared to $500 to $600 a week for a tacky one-bedroom unit and at least 30 people are looking at each place available, so renting on the age pension was simply not an option. The only alternative seemed to be putting her into a nursing home, which she didn't want and neither did we." "After having a few conversations with PennyGranny, we decided that hiring a granny flat was the perfect fit for Mum. We have room on our property, and it still gives Mum the independence she craves while being close enough that we can care for her," said Wendy. Key statistics from ABS research: The total value of residential dwellings in Australia rose by $156.3 billion to $11,093.8 billion this quarter. The number of residential dwellings rose by 53,100 to 11,252,600 this quarter. The mean price of residential dwellings rose by $9,300 to $985,900 this quarter. The mean price of residential dwellings in New South Wales ($1,233,600) remains the highest in the country, followed by the Australian Capital Territory ($951,800). Queensland ($915,700) now has the third largest mean price in the country, while the lowest mean price remains in the Northern Territory ($531,100). About PennyGranny: Founded in 2021 by Michael Doubinski PennyGranny offers a variety of high-quality portable housing, buildings and outdoor offices for hire across NSW, QLD, VIC and ACT and for sale Australia wide. PennyGranny has achieved 20% profit growth over the past 12 months, reflecting strong market demand. As well as permanent and temporary accommodation solutions, uses for PennyGranny portables include Airbnb rentals, office solutions, renovation accommodation or emergency accommodation during crises.

財團法人車輛研究測試中心(簡稱ARTC、車輛中心)4/2(二)與台灣科技大學共同舉辦「防鎖死煞車系統(ABS)校園推廣活動」。活動中,學生們透過機車防禦駕駛觀念宣導及實際機車搭配電腦軟體的「ABS虛實整合平台」,親身體驗機車在煞車情境下的點放手感,與了解機車急煞車時ABS所扮演的安全角色。活動現場氣氛熱烈,學生們熱情參與,不僅深刻感受到ABS系統的優勢,還學習到關於機車防禦駕駛的寶貴知識與安全駕駛的重要性。 台灣地狹人稠,因機車便利、持有成本低廉的特性,讓台灣長年具有「機車王國」之稱。根據交通部調查,高達近九成機車族汰換機車後仍會續購,然而2023年全台交通事故致死案件中,騎乘機車的死亡人數超過1800人,佔比高達六成,而受傷近42萬人中,18~24歲年輕人更佔25%以上,造成極大的衝擊與社會成本負擔。 在道路上常見的機車事故是騎士在驚慌之中急劇煞車,導致輪胎鎖死並失控滑倒。防鎖死煞車系統(ABS,Antilock Brake System)能在輪胎鎖死前透過高頻率的作動來精確控制煞車壓力,防止機車輪胎鎖死,從而保持車輛的穩定性。國際研究顯示,裝備ABS的機車能夠減少25%的事故發生率,雨天的事故率降低幅度甚至可達50%。 車輛中心副總經理廖學隆表示,車輛中心透過經濟部產業技術司科技專案的支持,強化濕滑路面的煞車性能,致力於推動防鎖死煞車系統(ABS)國產化,通過法規認證成功導入國產機車。為了落實社會責任,車輛中心結合大學舉辦宣導活動,本次活動結合機車防禦駕駛觀念宣導與校園體驗,提升大學生對機車安全的重視,讓交通安全教育從校園推廣至家庭與社會。 國立臺灣科技大學研發長邱煌仁說,ABS已經成為現代機車安全系統的重要一環,也是保障騎士行車安全的重要措施,希望透過這次活動讓學生更深入了解ABS及防禦駕駛的重要性,進一步提升行車安全意識,避免交通意外發生。 活動現場融合了趣味問答,鼓勵學生積極參與並快速學習安全與防禦駕駛知識。車輛中心資深防禦駕駛專家張俊毅指出,若騎士能培養預作煞車的習慣,也就是在危急狀況出現前就預想可能的危險而預先採取安全措施,對行車安全是有幫助。以行車速度50公里為例,有預作煞車相較於沒有採取任何措施,估計有0.5秒的時間差異,而這時間差可讓車輛提早7公尺停下來,這關鍵距離可能是避免事故的關鍵。因此,培養預作煞車習慣,是基於了解煞車特性而衍生的防禦駕駛觀念,能提昇機車行車安全。 自2005年起,車輛中心便投入電控煞車技術的研發,並持續強化自主煞車技術的研發能力。至今,車輛中心在防鎖死煞車系統(ABS)技術方面已獲得台灣、美國、中國等12項專利,並技轉給六和機械與易碼科技,並成功推動ABS技術國產化,更銷售至整車廠,搭載於國內大型重機如宏佳騰、亞帝發、蓋亞電動三輪物流車以及台灣金蜂ATV全地形車等;並在2023年的臺灣創新技術博覽會中,憑藉著卓越的技術創新,榮獲四項大獎,包括發明競賽區的「鉑金獎」和「企業特別獎」,以及創新領航館解密科技寶藏區的「最佳商機媒合獎第2名」、「最佳展示獎」。 展望未來,車輛中心將致力於尋求更多的合作機會,與產業界共同努力促進供應鏈發展及擴大量產規模,加速機車ABS普及,以電控煞車技術提升臺灣廠商的產業能量,促使產業持續升級與轉型,也為機車族提供更多的安全保障。
