The NSW Government has sold two public housing properties at Miller’s Point in Sydney, with fourteen more set to go under the hammer.

The properties sold for 2.2 million dollars, and the money raised from the auctions will be used to fund more social housing in Sydney’s Inner-West.

The Housing department has identified the properties as suitable for ninety-nine year leases to the private market.

But the New South Wales Tenants Union says this is just short of selling the buildings at top price to the richer part of town.

They also claim there are problems with the Housing sector’s management.

The Union’s policy officer, Chris Martin, spoke with 2SER’s Rosie Lewis.
